THE MOST ADVANCED DESIGN
IN ROTARY HOES IS BY M&W'
The M&W Rotary Hoe controls weeds better
because each wheel works independently,
free to follow the ground contour without
being effected by a neighboring wheel. Spring
loaded arms assure maximum ground contact.
Maintenance is kept to a minimum with re
placeable, permanently lubricated ball bearings
on each wheel and self sharpening forged teeth can
be easily replaced. With rigid models
in 15’, 21’, 28’ and 30’ widths, and hydraulic fold models in 21’, 25’
t /f ~ / and 30’ widths, M&W has a size for every farm. Standard features such
(, f. 'I f as the M&W E-Z hitch make the M&W Rotary Hoe an even better
V / / investment. Take a closer look at the most advanced design in rotary
F/7a c hoes today at your nearest M&W dealer or write for more information
Each wheel is mounted on its own arm,
free to follow the ground contour for
maximum weed control and crust busting
