BCS 853 walk-behind tractor with 29" R2 Rinaldi power harrow 1

The power harrow is a soilworking tool that features multiple sets of vertical tines, which rotate on vertical axes (yes, this is really the plural form of axis)...kind of like an eggbeater. It "tills" the soil horizontally, without mixing soil layers, and without bringing buried weed seeds up to the surface. The action of the tines will not create a "hardpan" or over-pulzerize the soil, even with multiple uses during the growing season. The depth is precisely controlled (0 -5" deep) by the screw-crank handle which raises or lowers the expanded-mesh roller in the rear. The roller leaves a completely smooth and pre-tamped "textured" surface that is ideal for any type of seeding, especially multi-row precision seeding such as greens, carrots, etc. In this video clip, we purposely put a rock in the path of the harrow to demontrate that it will not be damaged by rocks. (we have actually run into up to 30 pound rocks with it, and no damage to the harrow has ever occurred.) This machine is being operated by Berea, one of our employees here at Earth Tools.
