Discerator

Should be fine if you're not going too deep, we run a similar machine on 200 hp down to about 8" where needed. If you want to go seriously deep then double that number. You'll need to put lots of ballast on the front too.

I use a '3' meter one, 180 hp, ballast is all important with the large packer on the back.
I alter mine a fair bit depending on what I'm trying to achieve, legs deep, or more surface working with discs in hard use, etc
They are surprisingly easy to pull, it really does depend how deep you want to go , and what your subsoil is like

If they have the bolts in, about an hour.
If they haven't been altered since new, they could be tight.
I use a three quarter inch drive rachet and screw hammer.

Contractor uses one here sometimes after potatoes . Has it on a big fendt which certainly knows it's got it on. They look heavy bits of kit to me

Neighbours have one on a Fendt 920. Our T7.210 struggles with 5 legs on a shakerator. Depends so much on your land.
