Double front gauge wheels
Provide excellent terrain contouring and maintain the set working depth across the entire machine width.
A proven design and maximum performance are the main advantages of the SWIFTERDISC XE large-working-width high-speed disc harrow. Its attributes make it suitable for both primary tillage with intense mixing of crop residue and shallow secondary tillage and seedbed preparation. Two SWIFTERDISC XE models available in 33- and 41-foot working widths, respectively. The unique design of the forward folding of the disc section enables achieving compact transport dimensions.

SWIFTERDISC XE disc harrows bring an array of designs making them suitable for both shallow stubble discing and seedbed preparation.
Stubble management is one of the most important farming procedures. According to the proper agricultural practices it should be done as soon after harvest as possible. For this operation the SWIFTERDISC XE can be equipped with notched or aggressive disc blades with 20.5- or 22-inch diameter providing excellent penetration, cutting, mixing of soil and incorporation of crop residue. Rear rollers reconsolidate the tilled soil profile to ensure even emergence and germination of weeds and volunteer grains.
The optimal diameter in combination with the high working speed provide a high circumferential velocity of the blades that guarantees an excellent crumbling and mixing effect of the disc section. For broader versatility, frequent secondary tillage and seedbed preparation, we suggest equipping your SWIFTERDISC XE with the front Crushbar leveler to break the plow furrow and level uneven field surface.
The required working depth is set precisely via hydraulics, simply with depth stop clips on the disc harrow’s hydraulic cylinders.
To utilize the machine all year round, the SWIFTERDISC XE comes with an optional hydraulically controlled Crushbar leveler in front. This combination provides a perfect soil profile levelling, clod crumbling and soil preparation.
SWIFTERDISC XE large-working-width disc harrows have the transport axle pushed forward in front of the disc section. Such design contributes to ideal weight distribution and enables achieving higher working speed. The telescopic connecting rods help stabilizing the disc section frames.
Maintaining the set working depth for even soil profile processing is the foundation of quality tillage. The SWIFTERDISC XE disc harrows apply the same downpressure on all discs across the entire machine width thanks to the transport axle position and the concept of two folding side frames. This arrangement of the machine lowers the number of hydraulic cylinders where the wing frame downpressure could drop. This design also reduces the number of necessary lubrication points, the overall wear of the machine and improves machine’s agility, both in the field and on the road.
SWIFTERDISC XE can be maneuvered on headlands with ease. It makes headlands turns off the rear rollers and front gauge wheels with just the disc section lifted without the need of lifting the entire frame. This design eliminates the negative load on the hitch and unweighting of the tractor rear during a headland turn.
Even with working width of 41 feet SWIFTERDISC XE is very compact in transport mode as it doesn’t exceed 10-foot transport width and the transport height stays just below 13.1 feet. This is achieved by forward folding of the wings toward the tongue.
The SWIFTERDISC XE disc harrow can be equipped with the ALFA DRILL air seeder unit straight from the factory for seeding of cover crops and small grains in a single pass with considerable time and fuel saving benefits. The seeding unit hopper has a capacity of 23 bushels.
The large-working-width SWIFTERDISC harrows are designed for connection with the most powerful tractors on the market. They offer maximum performance and daily outputs thanks to sophisticated design and high working speed.

Provides ideal weight distribution of the implement and contributes to precise maintenance of the set working depth thanks to even disc section downpressure.
Provide excellent terrain contouring and maintain the set working depth across the entire working width.
The hydraulically operated Crushbar leveler is especially suitable for initial surface levelling and to break plow furrow before the disc section. The individual leveler tines are reinforced. The Crushbar leveler is easily controlled by a hydraulic circuit from the comfort of the operator’s seat.
Notched or aggressive discs available in 20.5- or 22-inch diameter with 0.2-inch thickness deliver high throughput thanks to the TWIN-DISC system.
Ensures safe turning on headlands and enables forward folding of the wings.
A wide range or rear packers make it possible to adjust the machine to the most various conditions.
We know that every farmer has different requirements for optional machine equipment and its intended use. That’s why we let you specify your own SWIFTERDISC XE to exactly match your needs.
