Wil-Rich Wil-Rich 483 Chisel Pro

Manage heavy residue and compaction in one pass
The Wil-Rich 483 Chisel Pro incorporates heavy residue and breaks up compaction while creating a smooth field finish. It accomplishes a wide range of tillage objectives in one pass, making the Chisel Pro an ideal post-harvest tool on the path to creating the ideal seedbed.

Superior residue sizing
The Wil-Rich 483 Chisel Pro contains two rows of serrated disc blades to cut and size residue into smaller pieces, so it can break down faster. The concave shape of the discs is designed to thoroughly mix the residue with the soil, helping to speed up the decomposition process even more.

The double-mounted discs are 24 inches in diameter with 15-inch spacing. The second rank of blades is offset, resulting in an effective blade spacing of 7.5 in. This configuration provides consistent tillage across the width of the implement.

Break up compaction and loosen soil
Behind the serrated disc blades are four ranks of chisel shanks. These help mix and loosen soil while breaking up compaction layers up to 10 in deep. To minimize plugging concerns in heavy residue, the shanks are spaced 60 in apart, providing excellent flow between them. Each of the four ranks is offset for an effective shank spacing of only 15 in. This design results in a more ideal field finish than disc rippers with wider shank spacing.

The Wil-Rich 483 Chisel Pro delivers exceptional performance by seamlessly integrating the power of a ripper with the expansive reach of a chisel plow. Its ability to operate at depths up to 10 in while requiring less horsepower than conventional disc rippers allow it to cover more land with improved efficiency, thereby boosting productivity on the farm. Operators can adjust the disc depth independently of the shanks to accommodate different field conditions and personal preferences.

Finish attachments for an ideal seedbed
The Wil-Rich 483 Chisel Pro can be equipped with a coil tine harrow with or without rolling baskets. These attachments help break down dirt clods and prepare fields for winter, ensuring they are ready for the next planting season.

3-bar coil tine harrow with rolling basket
This finishing option includes a 3-bar coil tine harrow and hydraulically adjustable rolling baskets. The combination of a harrow and rolling basket is ideal for distributing residue, breaking up clods, and creating a level field finish. The angle of the harrows can be adjusted according to conditions. Operators can also adjust the basket down pressure from the cab to achieve the desired field finish. The baskets can be completely lifted off the ground in wet conditions or when not needed.

3- or 4-bar coil tine harrow
The 3- or 4-bar tubular harrow features five adjustments for tooth angle. These adjustments allow the user to set the harrow's aggressiveness according to ground conditions and the amount of residue on the soil surface. The tines measure 5/8 in in diameter, are 26 inches long, with a spacing of 12 inches between each tine.
