8325 ROWCROP CULTIVATOR
The Orthman
8325
rowcrop cultivator is a versatile implement providing
producers with the benefit of performing numerous tasks with each field
pass. Introduced in 1999, the
8325
is designed around the time tested
8300
series cultivators. Integrating
8325
row units with a time tested
Orthman toolbar provides today’s producer with an industry leading cultivator.
Introduction
The
8325
row unit features a wraparound mount, parallel linkage, and
adjustable down pressure springs to provide uniform down pressure to
each row unit while allowing row units to work independent of the toolbar
to follow terrain contours. An adjusting hand crank and depth indicators,
for gauge wheel and center coulter depth adjustment, provide operators
with accurate and timely depth manipulation. Self storing, forward swept,
barring off discs allow for near crop tillage and optimum residue capacity
with simple adjustment and storage. These features equate to the benefit
of less time adjusting the implement and more time cultivating.
The
8325
provides a vast number of options in order to maximize each
field pass. Three sweep and ridging wing options provide precise control of
bed size and shape in conjunction with the cultivation. Optional fertilizer
tubes or a single fertilizer knife can be utilized to apply fertilizer with the
cultivation. An adjustable closed top fender is also available to protect a
young crop while maintaining desired ground speed.

WARNING AND SAFETY LIGHTS
Slow moving vehicles and oversized implements create a hazard on public
roads. They are difficult to see, especially at night.
Make sure all warning, safety lights, and turning signals are working and
clean. Use safety lighting when using public roads day and night.
Replace missing or damaged lights immediately. Comply with state
and local laws governing implement safety lighting.
A safety lighting package, conforming to lighting standard
ANSI/ASAE S279.12, is available for addition to all
8325
cultivators.
Contact your Orthman dealer for safety lighting package information.
Refer to toolbar operator’s manual for safety lighting package instruction.
Important Safety Information
SAFE TRANSPORT
•Engage transport locking devices prior to transport.
•Plan your route to avoid traffic. Yield to traffic in all situations.
•Maximum transport speed is 20 mph (32 kph). Some conditions will
require reduced speeds. Travel at speeds that allow for adequate control
of stopping and steering.
•Operate implement from a position to provide maximum visibility. Know
transport height and gross weight of implement. Be aware of overhead
obstructions. Do not use bridges rated lower than your gross weight.
•Make sure a slow moving vehicle (SMV) placard is mounted to the
implement and visible to other motorists. All Orthman implements
are equipped with a SMV placard.
•Make allowances for increased implement size when transporting. Sudden
braking can cause a towed load to swerve and/or rollover. Never use
independent braking with implement in tow as loss of control and/or rollover
can result. Reduce speed if towed implement is not equipped with brakes.
•Do not coast. Always keep tractor or towing vehicle in gear to provide
engine braking when traveling downhill.
•Comply with state and local laws governing implement transport.
