PARAPLOW Model 1810
Loosens Soil Without Surface Disturbance
Impossible? It’s true. The new Howard
PARAPLOW loosens soil to 14 inches deep
without disturbing surface residues. It
breaks compaction while leaving trash on
erosion*. The secret is the PARAPLOW’s
unique "legs.” The Model 1810 has sor 6of
them which slice into the ground at a 45°
angle to gently lift, fracture and loosen. No
other tillage tool works the same way.
See your nearby Howard dealer.
