Kuhn here for a long time and we're definitely what you would call a stoney place we occasionally break a tine holder but not often in the really bad bits just shut the pto revs back and getvthe forward speed up and it copes fine

the other thing about an amazone is the tines are swept back so they tend to push the stones down we had a 4mtr kg on a power harrow combi and it never gave any trouble and believe me we have stones i have had neighbours with alsorts of p harrows and they have broken tines and shafts but we had none of that with the k g

how do you manage with stone picking

Another vote for Kuhn my 2001 3m doing about 700 acres a year has been brilliant because it has 10 rotors 99% of stones flow through it.
The 1% was a concrete manhole cover .

Im looking at a new 3 m power Harrow , we have plenty of stones so which Harrow is the best on stoney soil. I'm thinking Amazon or Kuhn or Pottinger, I have two pottingers already but they changed their one piece tine to two single tines and a new adaptor plate for the older models , but it keeps breaking bolts and is not a good job. Are the new pottinger with their quick fit tines a success. So of the three which is the best.

Have you looked at Lemken?
