2 Rotavator: A highly effective machine for intensive tillage The Rotavator is one of the most efficient tillage systems when looking for solutions to specific soil tillage problems. No matter the soil type, soil conditions or the amount of residue, Rotavating will always produce the best result. The Rotavator can be easily adjusted for various working depths and soil finishes. The Rotavator is the most versatile implement for: 1. Crumbling; It can be set to produce soil tilths from very coarse to very fine. 2. Residue mixing; The Rotavator can cope with high amounts of weed or trash without blocking and will incorporate residue evenly throughout the working depth. The benefits are a clean surface and easy incorporation of organic material to improve soil structure. The Rotavator programme offers a range of versions, making it easy to adapt the machine to any tractor or soil application Crumbling effect The Rotavator cuts the soil with the rotor mounted blades, and projects the soil at the rear trailing board. A combination of working depth, rotor speed, tractor speed and trailing-board settings provides a wide range of tillage finishes. The Rotavator is an important implement in vegetable production where the planter requires a fine tilth, especially for root, bulb, tuber and other undersoil crops such as potatoes, onions, carrots and asparagus where a cloddy soil can effect the shape and quality of the product. The Rotavator can also be used as a seed bed preparation machine for normal farming crops, or fitted with a seed-drill, as a one-pass planter. Residue incorporation: Rotavator 500b-205s with skids Residue incorporation: One of the most common uses for the Rotavator is residue incorporation; Manure incorporation Incorporation of green fertilizer Maize and grain stubble incorporation Vegetable residue incorporation Weed control The rotating blades chop and mix the residues evenly throughout the working depth, outperforming any other implement. The HOWARD ROTAVATOR The Original is Best Since 1922 HOWARD ROTAVATOR has helped thousands of farmers around the world. Today, the HOWARDD range has the leading technology to match professional farmers needs. The original HOWARD blade Made in France offers what is expected for cost saving farm management. Durability Lower power requirement High crumbling effect Least soil compaction Wide range of rotors available Longer periods between blade changes. Reliable transmissions make the difference Original Howard clutch with multiple cintered bronze discs Highly efficient gearboxes in single speed, 4 speed Selectatilth, and lever change. Gear side-drives (except R500B series) Face seals on rotor bearing units. Long trailing board, spring loaded, for a perfect finish Adjustable CE front protection. Easily adaption for front wheels, track looseners etc. Rotavator is the most effective system for crumbling and residue incorporation Compact depth control system, for rear wheels and rollers.

3 Rotavator 500 Series The HOWARD ROTAVATOR 500 series is available in a wide range of working widths and configurations. The 500 series is designed for tractors of kw. The combinations of different trailing boards, depth control systems, rotors and blades allows the farmer to use the machine in many different crops vegetables, orchards, vineyards, sugar cane and beet, pineapples and wide acre irrigation and dry-land crops. The very strong frame with and a double plate hull allows the machines to be used in very heavy conditions without undue wear and tear. The new depth control system, giving a very compact overall width, allows the operator to work very close to field edges, trees and irrigation systems. Rotavator 500S-305S with cage roller.

4 ROTAVATOR 600 SERIES The HOWARD ROTAVATOR 600 series is suitable for medium to large size tractors, for use in intensive farming and for contractors. The machines range from cm working width and for tractors of kW. The range is available with 4 different rotor types in both single and double flange. Three different gear boxes are available, two with 4 speed pick-off gears ( Selectatilth ) and one with a 3 speed lever change and oil cooler. The range includes the new 280cm working width machine (305CM transport width) developed to comply with the European road ordinance. This has been made possible by the new depth control system which is extremely compact and reliable. Depth control is available with skids (up to 255cm working width) or with rear wheels and a wide range of rollers for various soil applications and conditions. R600S-305S with toothed packer roller.

5 ROTAVATOR 700S-D The 700 series machines are the most sophisticated machines in their class. Synchronized dual gear driven side-drives, coupled to a single rotor, offers unprecedented reliability. The oil cooling system allows for long trouble free working days in high ambient temperatures (40c+), giving a long operating life to the complete machine. The rotor bearing units are protected by face seals giving up to 3 times additional working life compared to ordinary oil seals. The frame is extremely strong, incorporating three structural tubes and a double hull. Rotavator 700S-405D. Double side drive, heavy duty machine. ROTAVATOR 700S.

6 ROTALABOUR. The finest seed bed preparation machine The ROTALABOUR is a perfect machine for seed bed preparation. The special shape of the Rotalabour blades effectively breaks down clods, while at the same time using very little power. This allows wider machines to be used on smaller tractors when preparing seed beds. Another positive aspect of the Rotalabour is the fact that the soil under the blade receives minimum pressure from the blade, increasing the capillary action of the soil. The blade enters the soil at a negative angle, which prevents residue packing in the middle of the rotor, which can happen with many similar machines from other manufacturers. The Rotalabour blade breaks clods very effectively. The double hinged trailing board allows very close position of the roller to the machine in a very compact configuration.

8 Rotavator and Rotalabour. The benefit of the experience and the ultimate technology The Rotavator was invented by Mr A.C. Howard in 1922 RL S with packer roller. The ultimate technologies have been applied to the Rotavator range. Take the advantages of the original ROTAVATOR- Howard has invested millions over the years in the Rotavator programme and as a result there are thousands of satisfied farmers around the world. As needs change, so do the applications of the Rotavator. Howard offers the most complete range and many different configurations and options in order to match any demand of the market. Only high quality materials and procedures are used in the manufacture of Rotavators and Rotalabours, making for extremely reliable machines, capable of working in the most difficult conditions.
