close, but no..

It is a disc, but I am looking for the word that describes a special feature of this disc..

 

[taxlady]

Disc plough (plow)

 

[bethzaring]

Disc plough (plow)

not a plough/plow

 

[pacanis]

Is it a disc planter? Minus the seed hopper?

 

[Alix]

Cultivator?

 

[bethzaring]

no, no,

I am looking for the adjective that goes before the word, disc.....(it's in the photo)

I guess most discs do not have this feature..

 

[Andy M.]

multi-

 

[bethzaring]

no, it's a disc, only has one function; to disc

 

[pacanis]

A tandem disc?

 

[bethzaring]

not tandem

the word I am looking for has to do with the method of transporting this particular kind of disc.....it names this disc

 

[pacanis]

hmmm... I may need to post this on my favorite tractor forum ;^)

 

[pacanis]

Is it a transport disc, also known as a wheel disc?

They use it to dispose of city slickers who get a little too nosy.

lol, that was funny Barbara.

Beth, I started doing searches of discs and came up with "transport disc, also known as a wheel disc". I don't know what they're called around here. I've never seen one with the wheels before.

Andy, Disc harrows used to break up the ground and smooth it out, such as in the Spring, in a corn field before they plant. It gets rid of the old rows and tills in the old stalks and weeds. You need a lot of horsepower to run ground engaging equipment that big. It basically does what a rototiller does, but on a large scale.

Be back with a pic in an hour or so.
