even rogue stock by sending
a 5000 volt impulse along the
wire every second.
This unit can be used
where the 240 volt power is
not available.
It can also be used for
permanent sub-divisional
fencing and economically

Pull-type subsoiler
Du-Al Manufacturing
Company, Sioux Falls, is
introducing a new pull-type
subsoiler made to match the
power of big drawbar
tractors - conventional or
articulated, 4-wheel drive.
The Du-Al pull-type
subsoiler features transport
wheels that are located
under the subsoiler frame
for uniform and level
plowing depths on uneven
ground. A parallel lever arm
with screw jack is made to
make leveling of subsoiler
.j
easier in raised or working
position. Optional spring
cushioned coulters are
positioned directly over the
points of the parabolic
shanks.
The pivot of the shank is
located directly over the
tooth point. Because of this
design, the tooth point of the
shank never rotates lower
than the original digging
depth after the shear bolt
shears.
Each parabolic shank is
constructed of high-strength
steel with a hard surface
leading edge. The hard
surfacing is made to resist
wear and allow the parabolic
shank to last longer under all
conditions, according to Du-
Al. Low cost hardened
shank point replacements
are available.
This shank shape is made
to accomplish more with
available horsepower. Shank
points lift and shatter soil in
front of the parabolic shank
arc. The Model 7000 is
available in seven or nine
models.
Du-Al stated the new Du-
Al7OOO can help stop run off
and improve water
utilization by breaking up
hard pan, plow sole or
compaction to achieve better
absorption. It can also aid in
preventing wind and water
erosion.
Due to a shattering action
in the soil, plant root
systems can seek moisture
and nutrients more ef
ficiently. That can mean
revitalized land and in
creased yields Du-Al stated.
