Make sure to look at the variety of disc hillers we offer in case this one does not suit your needs.
I bought a pair of these to install in place of two tine holders on my old Ferguson SKO-20 spring tine harrow. The shanks were just the right length and diameter to fit the U-bolts which hold them in place. The bearing on one disc was a bit "stiff" but started to turn freely after a few practice passes through the garden. I set the discs so the lower edges were 1-2 inches below the remaining sweeps. This lets me make a nice hill with the discs while the tines wipe out the tire tracks and level the soil on either side of the ridge. Regardless of what set-up you use I'd recommend taking the time to experiment with the spacing between the discs, their angle, implement depth setting and tractor speed, since all of these will affect the height, width and slope of the resulting hill. Once I had a set-up that gave me the results I wanted I scribed some witnesses marks on the shanks so I could easily reposition everything the same way again. I plan to remove the hiller discs after planting so I can cultivate b — Eugene H Beach Jr from MI
