Field Cultivators 

Prepare your fields for optimum plant growth, and reap the most value from your seed investment, with the Case IH Tiger-Mate^® 200 field cultivator.

• Uniform soil distribution allows for faster dry-down, allowing you to plant earlier for an extended growing season with faster germination
• Excellent soil tilth means proper pore and soil aggregate size and distribution in the seed zone, improved seed-to-soil contact, faster germination and more uniform crop emergence

High-Performance Construction 

The Tiger-Mate 200 field cultivator offers these standard features:

• Positive, mechanical depth control for uniform depth

• Walking tandems on the mainframe and each wing section

• Stabilizing wheels on each wing section 

One-Way Pivoting Stabilizer Wheel

• Optional one-way pivot:
  • Allows stabilizer wheel to pivot when it is on the outside position of a turn
  • Maintains proper depth control
  • Reduces side loads on the wheel and tire
• Stop built into the stabilizer wheel:
  • Prevents wheel from wobbling when operating in a straight line or on the outside of a turn

Bridge Frame Design 

• Five-bar frame utilizes:
  • 3 x 4 in. (76 x 102 mm) tubing side-by-side
  • 2 x 2 in. (51 x 51 mm) tubing front-to-rear
• Lap welds:
  • Increase strength
  • Extend frame life

Options To Match Conditions 

The Case IH Tiger-Mate 200 can be enhanced with:

• Advanced Leveling System (ALS) or
• Advanced Conditioning System (ACS) harrows

These additions can be made with or without the optional Case IH Crumbler^® attachment, depending on soil conditions and desired outcome. Based on your soil environment and farming practices, the ideal combination of tools can be configured to:

• Properly distribute residue
• Size clods
• Firm the seed zone

With a combination of the Split-the-Middle Sweep (SMS) pattern and 6-in. (152-mm) shank spacing, the Tiger-Mate^® 200 thoroughly mixes residue with the soil. 

• Incorporates nutrients evenly
• Reduces “hot spots” that can burn the roots of young seedlings

Cut Pattern 

• First three rows of shanks take a full cut through the soil
• Fourth and fifth rows cut out the middles
• Soil, residue and chemicals are mixed and spread uniformly across width of the unit
• Components are mixed thoroughly throughout the tillage depth
• Results in even tracking and uniform sweep wear
  • Even loading on each side of sweep prepares a level seedbed
    • Promotes uniform emergence
      

Case IH Tiger-Mate^® 200 Advanced Leveling Systems (ALS) evenly distribute soil and residue behind the field cultivator for a smooth, level field finish and easier planting

Three different ALS options are available for varying soil types:

• Tiger-tine™ harrow
• Coil tine harrow
• Spike tooth harrow
  

Tiger-Tine Harrow 

The Tiger-tine™ harrow uses a combination of split-the-middle indexed-tine placement, parallel linkage and three-tine angle adjustments to achieve superior field performance.

• Indexed tines on four bars
  • Create smooth, level fields
  • Evenly distribute soil and residue
  • Break clods
  • Kill weeds
• Double tines on first rank are evenly centered between sweeps
  • Knock down the ridge left by shanks
• Second, third and fourth ranks split the middle prior to ranks again
  • Level any remaining ridge
• Result is an effective, 20-in. (51-mm) tine spacing
  • Unparalleled performance
  • Handles heavy residue without bunching or allowing clumped residue to drag
• Parallel linkage and non-linked tine bars
  • Allows for independent movement and flexibility
  • Prevents skips and gouges when going over terraces and through draws
  • Keeps unit level from front-to-back and side-to-side
  • Depth and level adjustments eliminated for maximum productivity
• Two pins per arm adjust the tine angle and spring pressure (no tools needed)
  • 5 degrees – for aggressive leveling in heavy soils with minimal residue
  • 20 degrees – the standard setting for most soils and residue
  • 35 degrees – for extremely heavy residue

Coil Tine Harrow

• Three-bar design and 15-in. (38-cm) rank
• Promotes excellent residue flow and leveling
• 16-in. (41-cm) long, 7/16-in. (11.1-mm) diameter double-coil tines with 1 1/2-in. (63.5-mm) effective spacing
• Tines rotate to prevent damage when backing up

Spike Tooth Harrow

• Five-bar design and 10-in. (254-mm) rank
• Promotes excellent leveling and clod breakage
• 11-in. (279-mm) long, 3/4-in. (19-mm) square wide teeth with 1 1/2-in. (38-mm) effective spacing
  

Case IH Advanced Conditioning Systems (ACS) create a smooth, level seedbed for:

• Easier planting
• Uniform emergence
• Improved yields

Match your desired field finish with your soil environment and farming practice, then select the ACS that best fits your needs.

ACS Round

The ACS Round is used for moderate clod sizing and seedbed firming. Its round rods:

• Crush clods
• Firm soil fines
• Leave protective larger clods on top

The unit has the same dimensions as the industry-leading Case IH Crumbler^®, only with hollow rods.

• Excellent in mellow or sandy soils
• Works best in dry to moderately wet conditions
• Can be run in wetter conditions than the Crumbler

ACS Flat 

The ACS Flat is the choice for aggressive clod sizing without firming:

• Knife-like blades cut clods and throw soil and residue
• Aggressive soil-throwing action mixes fines and clods without firming
• Speeds drying
• All down pressure is concentrated on cutting action
• Works well in hard or high-clay soil
• Can run in wet or dry conditions
• Can be run in wetter conditions than the Crumbler^® or ACS Round

Unique Features 

Both Case IH Advanced Conditioning System (ACS) units:

• Need no depth or level adjustments
  • Two-bar coil tine harrow is indexed to the rear shank
  • Effectively levels the soil and distributes residue before the baskets
  • Parallel linkage eliminates depth adjustments
• Offer industry-leading down pressure consistency throughout an entire 26-in. (66-cm) trip clearance
  • Creates a uniform soil finish in the most diverse conditions
  • Finishes the soil without compaction
  • Spring down pressure adjustable for 60 - 80 lbs/ft. (27 - 36 kg/m)
• Feature no-tools tine angle adjustment
• Create an easy, customized field finish
• Include large, 14-in. (36.5-cm) baskets
  • Easily roll over obstructions
  • Open basket centers mean less basket load and plugging
  • Basket arms easily adjust up – just turn one bolt per arm if conditions are too wet
