A Case IH Ecolo TIGER-53 subsoiler is a primary tillage implement designed to deep-loosen and condition compacted soil in a single pass. Case IH is a major manufacturer of agricultural machinery serving crop production, and subsoilers are core implements in the preparation of field conditions for planting and nutrient incorporation.
This 2016 machine carries a working width of 3.8 metres and is equipped with a distinctive X-frame disc configuration featuring individually mounted discs of 610 mm diameter, spaced 380 mm apart and set at an 18° angle. The disc assembly operates independently under hydraulic control, allowing flexible adjustment based on crop residue size and soil density, independent of the subsoiling depth. The rear disc row is offset relative to the front, delivering an effective cutting span of 190 mm to a depth of 102 mm.
The subsoiling function comprises nine tines: five primary shanks and four intermediate shanks. The primary shanks are mounted on parabolic stiles spaced 76.2 cm apart, with intermediate stiles positioned centrally between them. Primary shanks are fitted with 10-inch points and calibrated to exert up to 2,100 kg of working force; intermediate shanks use 7-inch points with adjustable force up to 770 kg. These components are supplied by Nichols Tillage. The implement operates at speeds up to 9 km/h and penetrates to a maximum depth of 35 cm. Rear gangs of disc harrows, each 452 mm in diameter, assist in levelling and finishing the worked soil.
The machine weighs 5,262 kg in its current configuration and requires a minimum tractor power of 300 horsepower (221 kW). Transport width is 4.5 metres. The implement can be optionally equipped with additional rolling harrows. This machine is located in Ukraine and is offered at USD 28,500.
