Case IH Ecolo-Tiger 530C
Features
Ecolo-Tiger 530C Design Updates
The Ecolo-Tiger® 530C features are field-tested, proven tools recently improved with more than 23 design updates.
- Smoother residue flow due to increased mainframe length, added clearance, and increased rank between front and rear disks
- Increased strength
- Improved load ratings
- 24-in. (610-mm)-diameter, shallow-concavity blades improving residue cutting and enhancing soil penetration capability
Shanks and Points for Superior Soil Tilth
- Massive 1.5x6-in. (38x152-mm) parabolic shanks and Tiger® points increase soil tilth
- Improve water and nutrient absorption
- Produce better stands and higher yields
- Ecolo-Tiger 530C, 5-shank requires 175–240 PTO hp (131–179 kW)
Crumbler 160 Seedbed Conditioner
Proven Performance
Attaching the Crumbler® 160 behind your Case IH Ecolo-Tiger 530C makes one-pass primary tillage and seedbed preparation possible. THe Crumber 160 breaks up clods, knocks soil off crown roots and smoothes soil after primary tillage; saves time, fuel and tractor engine hours; and promotes higher yields by creating more ideal seedbed conditions. Performance research shows that the Crumbler 160 works in the fall to provide high-quality seedbed conditions by:
- Reducing clod size by up to 46%
- Creating smoother valleys by up to 45%
- Improving fall seedbed levelness by up to 55%
- Reducing air pockets in tilled soil
The Crumbler 160 consistently exerts approximately 160 lbs./ft. (240 kg/m) of ground pressure.
Heavy-duty Construction
The Crumbler® 160 is constructed with rough terrain and varied soil conditions in mind. It features:
- A mainframe and wings constructed of 6-x-4-in. (152-x-102-mm) steel tubing
- 16-in. (41-cm)-diameter reels with 10 1-in. (25-mm)-diameter solid bars
- 3,000 psi (211 kg/cu cm) hydraulic cylinders and hoses with ISO couplers
- 9.5L x 15 eight-ply, tubeless-rim implement tires
- Replaceable hubs and spindles
- Large, heavy bearings
- Rigidly mounted reels
- Available in 15-, 17.5-, 20-, 22.5- and 25-ft. (4.6-, 5.3-, 6.1-, 6.9- and 7.6-m) widths. The four larger models fold to a narrow 13.5-ft. (4.1-m) transfer width.
Unique Features
Other unique features of the Crumbler® 160 include:
- A pull frame with telescoping tongue that easily attaches to the rear hitch on primary tillage machines
- Warning and tail lights
- An SMV emblem
- A safety chain
- A parking stand
