Single front gauge wheels
Maintain the set working depth across the entire machine width, help with terrain contouring and prevent the machine from bouncing.
SWIFTERDISC XO_F is a line of versatile high-speed disc harrows of a compact design available in 13- through 25-foot working widths. Our disc was the first on the market to feature the integrated transport axle placed in front of the rear roller. This design provides even weight distribution for high machine stability and related high working speed essential for the proper performance of a high-speed disc.

Whether you need to till the stubble or prepare a seedbed, SWIFTERDISC XO_F is the right choice.
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 XO_F 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 XO_F with the front Crushbar leveler to break the plow furrow and level uneven field surface.
Rollers laid out in two rows provide better stability at high working speeds compared to one-row design and eliminate the gap known from disc harrows with two rollers in a single row. The integrated transport axle ensures even distribution of the machine weight and eliminates heave. It also ensures safer transportation and reduces the turning radius of the tractor with the attached implement on the headland.
The working depth of the disc is easily set from the rear rollers. If the machine is equipped with front gauge wheels, they are set automatically via mechanical connecting rods.
SWIFTERDISC XO_F can be equipped with the Trash Cutter roller in the front, an ideal choice for sizing crop residue and hard stalks. Such cut residue breaks down faster and makes the subsequent tillage easier by preventing machine clogging.
To utilize the machine all year round, the SWIFTERDISC XO_F comes with an optional hydraulically controlled Crushbar leveler in front. This combination provides a perfect soil profile levelling, clod crumbling and soil preparation.
The SWIFTERDISC XO_F 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 11.3 bushels.
The SWIFTERDISC XO_F disc harrow is equipped with a hydraulic tongue. We use this design as it makes for easier connection to the tractor and most importantly improves the job quality since the machine perfectly contours the terrain.
The integrated transport axle placed closer to the tractor provides excellent driving characteristics. The working sections fold upward and the frames are conveniently secured by hydraulic locks. Smooth and safe travel at high speeds with a transport width under 10 feet.

The hydraulically adjustable tongue contributes to perfect contouring and levelling in uneven terrain.
Used to break plow furrow and for initial levelling before the disc section.
Notched or aggressive discs available in 20.5- or 22-inch diameter with 0.2-inch thickness.
Distributes the machine’s weight evenly a contributes to its overall stability.
Help maintaining stability and processing ground across the machine width.
A wide range or real rollers and packers make it possible to adjust the machine to the most various conditions. Two-row layout prevents the machine from bouncing. Packers reconsolidate the surface and reduce soil water evaporation.
Perfectly levels any minor field surface unevenness and evenly spreads lumps across the entire machine width.
“We are very pleased with our purchase of the BEDNAR machine. This is going to be a second season. Last year the SWIFTERDISC worked over 2,500 acres, it is a very versatile machine that can be used pretty much throughout the whole season. It is very stable thanks to the integrated axle and the hydraulically controlled tongue that can be put in float position. I also appreciate the low fuel consumption of only about 0.6 gallons per acre. My neighbor has also recently purchased a SWIFTERDISC after seeing how well it works on my farm.”
