2023 Great Plains VT1500 Sub-Soiler VT1510

With a choice of no-till or straight leg shanks, the VT1500 Sub-Soiler eliminates yield-robbing compaction layers and soil density changes – all in one pass.

The Great Plains VT1500 Inline Sub-Soiler eliminates yield-robbing compaction layers as it delivers all of the benefits of true vertical tillage: enhanced water infiltration, strong root development, and increased nutrient uptake. Reset your soil profile by achieving depths up to 16". The VT1500 offers spring-loaded 20" utility coulters; durable high chrome alloy points and shins; and an all-new, high-protection trip pack shank option with a 2,000-lb. trip force that withstands even the rockiest conditions on your operation.

• With 3,000 lb. trip force, the Auto-Reset Shanks provide stop-free operation in areas where sub-surface obstructions exist. Alternatively, the Shear Bolt Mounts provide obstruction protection at a lower purchase cost than the Auto-Reset Shanks. New for 2022! 2,000 lb. high-protection trip pack auto-reset shanks enhance performance and reduce shear bolt breakage in rocky conditions.

• Choose a 1¼" straight-legged shank or a 3/4" no-till shank. The no-till shank is not as aggressive as the straight-legged shank in turning the soil over and covering residue, so it should be used where less ground disturbance is desired. Replaceable wear shins are standard for either shank option.

• The 1¼" straight-legged shank is available with points in 2" or 7" widths. These can be ordered with or without fins (fins minimize blowout). The ¾" no-till shank is only available with a 10" no-till point that minimizes surface disturbance and residue burial while maximizing soil-structure-shatter below. New for 2022! Points and shins are now manufactured from a new chrome alloy that substantially extends the wear life of the points and reduces potential breakage of the shins. Plus, a new 4" no-till point is available for no-till shanks set on 24" spacing. These smaller points allow the machine to operate at shallower depths (10"-12") with less horsepower while still achieving maximum soil fracture.

• Large 20" utility coulters cut residue directly in front of the shanks. This allows it to pass by without catching the shanks.

• A screw jack makes adjusting the gauge wheels simple and easy.

• Multiple shank spacings allow the Sub-Soiler to be tailored to your specific soil needs.
