KUHN DMR 4855 9 disc ripper review

As machinery gets bigger and heavier, farmers are faced with the ongoing problem of soil compaction on their land.

To answer growers’ demands for a deep ripper to help tackle this issue, KUHN released the DMR 4855 nine-shank disc ripper earlier this year at the KUHN expo at Cowra, NSW.

KUHN NSW territory manager, Gerard Cusack, recently showcased the DMR 4855 disc ripper machine to southern NSW growers at Griffith and Coleambally.

The 4.8m wide machine was pulled by a 470hp four-track John Deere 9470RXN at a depth of 16 inches (40cm) and a ground speed of six to 7km/h.

Boasting a narrow transport width, the DMR 4855-9 is 11m long and features five shanks at the front and four at the rear.
