[QUOTE="Valtra Man, post: 6949085, member: 10851"] My personal findings since testing the guttler against my aitchinson... Burnt off grass and in after 5 days I use my aitchinson because the guttler needs several passes. If you can leave the sward to die and rot a bit you’ll have no problem but it does rip better with more moisture. After a winter crop of turnips or Italian and forage rape etc the guttler was very good at creating a tilth for the perfect seedbed going back to grass. That was my main reason for buying it as the slots on a aitchinson seemed too wide for a complete grass reseed. As for calling the guttler a glorified Harrow as some have...I’ve had tine harrows and they certainly won’t create the tilth a guttler does. The guttler needs to be set right to put the weight on the tines for digging and then more so on the roller for seeding as if it’s too aggressive it can drag trash with you. You need several passes with a guttler to create the tilth where as the likes of an aitchinson is one pass. However if the ground is uneven the aitchinson misses the hollows and goes deep on the tumps. Each is far better than the other in certain circumstances. Each has its pros and cons and so does a disc drill. It seems to all depend on the situation, the ground conditions but most of all the weather and after seeding.. [/QUOTE]
