Time-tested Orthman durability builds the perfect bed

To stay out in front, you need equipment that sets up easily, adjusts precisely, does exactly what it’s designed to do and stays on the job season after season. On that basis, the Orthman 8385 Parallel Linkage BedLister has set the industry standard. The heavy-duty, wrap-around parallel linkage is the product of more than three decades of high horsepower row crop tillage experience and provides precision depth control in the roughest of terrain. Rotary moldboards mounted on high-strength steel shanks offer a smooth and consistent pull to create perfectly shaped beds. The 8385 is available in 6- to 18-row configurations with 30? to 40? spacing to adapt to a wide variety of applications.

Orthman was at the very forefront in developing stack-fold technology and continues to provide the best stacking toolbars available. Orthman precision line-bored, wide-wing hinges offer increased strength and smooth, reliable folding for the life of your machine. Built to handle the roughest conditions, Orthman stacking toolbars go from road-ready to working in the field quicker than you can say, “Make mine Orthman!”

The 8385 can be mounted on any of Orthman’s industry-leading rigid, folding or stacking toolbars featuring wide, precision line-bored hinges for smooth folding and extra-engineered strength. The 8385 is available in 6- to 18-row configurations with 30” to 40” spacing to adapt to a wide variety of applications.

Orthman folding toolbars are designed around the original principles of the Orthman internal cylinder folding toolbar first developed in the 1970s. The toolbar’s innovative internal folding cylinder design allows the toolbar to fold while freeing up peripheral toolbar space that’s wasted in external folding cylinder models.

Features may include:

• Unlike mounting systems that transfer draft force solely through U-bolts that can stretch, distort and break, Orthman’s heavy-duty force-through-mount design and wedge locking system join steel to steel to stand up to the rigors of bedding.

• Precision seedbeds start with Othman’s time-tested row unit foundation. The heavy-duty parallel linkage row unit operates independently of the toolbar, giving you consistent depth control with up to 8 inches of vertical travel for precision bed shaping in uneven field conditions.

• Providing 9? of quick and consistent tooling depth control, the hand crank depth adjustment with high visibility depth indicators enable easy height adjustment settings across entire machine.

• The rugged 22? depth band coulter easily slices through surface and sub-surface residue to eliminate interference with the lister bottom while it simultaneously maintains precise depth control and provides lateral stability.

• Precisely shape your bed height, width and slope with adjustable, smooth-pulling rotary moldboards perfected by Orthman through decades of customer feedback. The shear bolt tail protects the lister unit from rocks and other unseen obstructions, to ensure long life.
