KUHN MASTER 153 mounted ploughs have a common objective: to help you reap the benefits of your investment quickly.
The MASTER 153 with its 150 x 150 mm beam is designed for more intensive use and more difficult working conditions than the MASTER 123. With the MASTER 153, you will be able to use tractors up to 270 hp. This range is available from 4 to 6 bodies, in MULTI-MASTER and VARI-MASTER versions, with Safe-T traction bolt safety or Hydro-Safe hydraulic safety.
Thousands of users have already chosen the MASTER 153 mounted reversible plough for its reliability, ease of use and quality of work. KUHN has been designing and manufacturing ploughs for over a century. This know-how and expertise will increase the profitability of your investment by a higher resale value than that of competing ploughs.
It is essential to choose your plough according to the conditions of use and in particular according to the cultivation system being followed. In order to best adapt to your working conditions, it is possible to optimise the clearance between points. To do this, you should take into account :
2 clearances are available on MASTER 153 mounted ploughs:
KUHN offers 2 cutting width systems: multiple or variable.
MASTER 153 ploughs can be equipped with 2 types of safety: Traction bolt safety Safe-T or NSH hydraulic non stop safety.
The adjustment of the release pressure takes only a few seconds by connecting a hydraulic hose. There are options to suit the most demanding situations:
The middle part of the MASTER 153 ploughs contains the majority of adjustments. Simple to use, this specific kinematics allows you to choose the ideal working range for your tractor. There is no need to adjust the angle, the point of traction adapts automatically. Once in the field, all you have to do is refine the offset to achieve perfect working quality. Fast, simple and efficient, such is the offset on MASTER 153 ploughs.
Hydraulic offset is available as an option for continuous adjustment of the first plough body from the operator’s seat.
A few practical tips for optimum use:
The traction line will automatically adapt itself.
The adjustments of a plough are essential to achieve a very good quality of work. It is essential to fine-tune them as soon as there is a change in working conditions. KUHN offers you the opportunity to have a perfectly adjusted plough thanks to simple, intuitive and tool-free settings. The simplicity and precision of adjustment of the MASTER 153 ploughs allows you to optimise fuel consumption and the wear of working parts.
In just a few seconds, you will be able to benefit from fine and precise adjustments, giving you an irreproachable quality of work and increased productivity. Whether it is for vertical, offset or depth, you will gain in practical simplicity.
For greater comfort, all plough settings (offset, vertical, working depth, NSH pressure) can be controlled hydraulically from the cab. In heterogeneous conditions, the driver can adjust the various parameters of his plough on the move while continuing ploughing.
The MASTER 153 range is recognised by thousands of users for its unfailing reliability. Its unique design guarantees an irreproachable quality of ploughing in order to obtain high yields while limiting operating costs.
From the front furrow to the last plough body, KUHN MASTER 153 ploughs are fully mechanically welded using strict, high-precision manufacturing processes to guarantee their longevity over the years. The most constrained areas adopt specific designs such as the forged and treated monobloc connecting rod.
The optimised reinforcement triangle allows the plough to maintain a very good weight distribution with a centre of gravity close to the tractor.
In addition, the MASTER 153 ploughs benefit from a clean design that limits the accumulation of soil residue on the frame and facilitates cleaning.
The use of high quality materials combined with a simple and efficient design is an undeniable guarantee of reliability for your plough.
The linkage 100% integrated into the beam of the MASTER 153 plough is a KUHN exclusive! The entire working width mechanism is integrated into the frame to guarantee total protection against external aggression (falling stones and earth, humidity, corrosion, etc.). This KUHN exclusivity offers a much longer service life than conventional mechanisms. It also requires no maintenance since the pins are chrome plated, locked in rotation and bushed to eliminate any risk of seizure and wear. The absence of maintenance saves considerable time and money and ensures the profitability of your KUHN plough.
Opting for a KUHN variable width plough, VARI-MASTER 153, is the assurance of a complete and instant adaptation to your working conditions.
Proud of its unrivalled know-how, KUHN offers you parts that are always more efficient and perfectly adapted to your plough. Inseparable from the DNA of KUHN ploughs, KUHN’s forge in the factory, shape wearing parts with extreme precision to optimise performance and work quality (operating cost, consumption, wear, etc.).
The KUHN wear part manufacturing process concentrates the material where it is needed. The heat treatment gives your parts very good resistance to wear under all conditions. The profile of the shares and points is designed to ensure optimum penetration and very good body work.
The durability of your plough also depends on high-quality mouldboards. This is why KUHN offers the exclusive TRIPLEX uneven-layer mouldboards. With one of the hardest steels on the working face on the market, KUHN guarantees you an excellent quality of work throughout the life of the plough. TRIPLEX uneven-layer TRIPLEX combined with heat treatment increases the life of your mouldboards by 40%.
KUHN original parts are 20% more resistant than standard parts. They will be your best allies for your ploughing.
