Assembly – Adjustable Tyne Mounted Press Wheels are most widely used where there is a need to put the press wheel right in behind the tyne and where space limitations do not allow for any other mounting method. The popularity of these units is due to the fact that they give a cost effective means getting the press wheel in close behind the tyne. The adjustable variant allows a variety of methods of adjusting pressure and wheel position, making them suitable for a wider number of tyne varieties. All units come standard configured as a swivel unit. The units can be configured for low pressure (15kg) or high pressure (40kg), however most units are run at an average pressure of around 20 kg. A choice of 15, 16 or 18 inch wheel sizes is available with a large number of tyre options, most units are sold with 15 inch wheels. Units come standard with Integral Hub Press Wheels fitted with greaseable LM Tapered Bearings and Marine Seal. Cast Holden Hubs are available as an option on request. Caution needs to be exercised when using tyne mounts as they are not suitable on some machines and in some conditions. The tyne design, breakout and sowing conditions are all important considerations. To determine whether your machine and conditions are suitable please contact Manutec to discuss.

Tyre – 100mm wide flat solid tyre with a 1 inch square rib in the centre. This tyre is a low outer pressure, medium high inner pressure tyre suited to dry conditions. Tyre will give an even pressure footprint over the 100mm of tyre face and a region of high pressure over the centre channel where the seed is. Tyre has a tendency to bring soil back over the seed (desireable in most areas). Recommended for very abrasive soils or rough conditions. Not recommended in sticky conditions as build up will occur and the benefit of the central rib will be lost.
