Martin Row Cleaners provide a simple, cost-effective, way to eliminate the problems caused by excessive
crop residue in the seed row area, while maintaining the benefits of mulched row middles. Residue is not
buried, just moved aside to improve planter performance.
The Martin Wrap Around Row Cleaner C125 places toothed wheels 7" in front of the no-till coulter to move ]
residue before the coulter enters the soil. Model C125S places toothed wheels in front of the double-disc
openers to move residue before the seed opener enters the soil. The unique high rear pivoting frame
construction on all models transfers part of the planters forward motion into down pressure, while still
leaving the row cleaner free to follow the contour of the land. The C125S is designed to operate behind
forward mounted fertilizers openers and can be operated behind single-disc fertilizer openers.
The lightly tilled residue free zone offers these distinct advantages for planter operation:
Eliminates unit bounce
Allows for fine tuning of seed depth placement
Gives herbicides in the row area contact with soil
Permits sunlight to warm soil and speed germination
Does not scrape the soil surface and seal off pores
Will not create a furrow, like discs
Model C125 allows coulter to crumble the soil more completely
Model C125S does not throw out soil under wetter conditions as in coulter or multiple coulter setups
Ridges can be cleared without reducing their height
