2024 Kuhn 4835 In-Line Ripper 530R

The 4835 in-line ripper provides efficient compaction removal, while allowing crop residue to remain virtually undisturbed on the surface. Working widths ranging from 10’ to 27’6”, and a variety of shank and point options are available to meet your agronomic needs.

The KUHN Krause 4835 in-line ripper is the ideal tool to fight soil compaction, one of the leading causes of yield reduction. With working depths of 8” to 16”, the 4835 provides aggressive soil fracturing, while retaining valuable crop residue on the field surface. This allows for greater root development and water infiltration into the soil, and effectively reduces runoff and soil erosion. KUHN Krause 4835 in-line rippers are available in rigid 4- to 7-shank models or folding 7- to 11-shank models with choice of 30”, 36”, 38” or 40” shank spacing dependent upon model. The 4835 can be equipped with spring reset, Pathfind’r™ or rigid, shear-bolt protected shanks for soils where rock is not a concern. A variety of shanks and points are available depending on your agronomic needs.

Features may include:

3-Point Hitch

Designed for deep tillage with strength and durability in mind. Category 3, 3N, 4 & 4N 3-point hitch configurations are available dependent on machine configuration. 3-point hitches are integrated into a two-bar frame design with main members of heavy-duty, 6”x6” structural steel tubing.

Rear lift pull-hitch option available for all 4835-530F through 4835-1130F models for transport stability. The drawbar pull-hitch includes 280/70 R15 tires on the rear lift and 280/70 R15 front mounted gauge wheel tires.

Shank Mounts to Match Your Field Conditions

Rigid, shear-bolt mounts are an economical choice for soils where rocks or other obstacles are not a concern. Shear-bolt protection guards against shank damage from unexpected obstacles.

• Shear force: 10,000 pounds (approximate)

• 16” maximum shank working depth

• For non-rock conditions

Recommended for field conditions where obstacles or rocks may be encountered. A 4”x4” welded tube provides strength.

• 2,500 pound point load

• 20” trip height

• 16” maximum shank working depth

Exclusive pivoting design allows the shank to deflect up to 6 degrees on each side for a total of 12 degrees of movement.

• Basic spring reset design

• Makes deep ripping possible on contours or terraces

• Deflects impacts improving performance in rocky soils

• Smoother steering under full power with tracked tractors

• Reduces stress on implement frame and 3-point tractor hitch

• Not compatible with pull-type hitch

• 20” trip height

• 16” maximum shank working depth

• 36” underframe clearance

  Shank & Point Options

  A Variety of Options

  The 4835 in-line ripper may be configured in many different ways to achieve your agronomic goals. Choose from a variety of shank, point and wing combinations to achieve your desired field finish. Surface field finish is primarily determined by the type of shank used with parabolic offering the most soil disturbance, followed by MRD and no-till. Compaction removal, residue incorporation and draft are determined by points and shank caps.

  No-Till Shanks & Points"
  • Choice of ¾" no-till shank (normal conditions) or 1” no-till shank (extreme conditions)
  • Austempered wear bar
