Vibration
Unlike conventional subsoilers, the Shakaerator range comes with a patented vibration unit which reduces draught, improves fuel efficiency and lowers hp requirements.
OVERVIEW
The machine’s folding wings grant farmers greater flexibility, reducing horsepower requirements when the ground is heavy, enabling the machine to work on smaller tractors, and proving highly effective when called upon to treat tramlines.
Building on the successful Shakaerator platform, the 300 and 400 models feature the classic vibration unit, and benefit from the same low draught legs which heave and aerate without mixing topsoil and subsoil – protecting the fertile top layer and aiding crop growth.

FEATURES
Folding wing extensions
Foldable wing extensions of 1.0 or 2.0m are available boosting the working width to 4.0 or 5.0m at the touch of a button, and allowing customers to configure the size of the machine to match the soil conditions, the task at hand, or the tractor used for the job.
