Egidio e Giorgio Maschio established the Gruppo Maschio Gaspardo in 1964 and to celebrate fifty years of success in the agricultural sector the group has come up with a special edition of their rotary tiller model C 300 which is entirely chrome plated. The chromed version of this flagship product, unveiled at Fieragricola 2014, marks the history and the growth of Maschio Gaspardo to become synonymous of quality and performance. The C model, developed in the 1960s, was in fact the first rotary tiller the group introduced to the market to fully interpret the process of internationalization which, from these early machines, now manufacturers a full range of top-quality products with great technological content covering all types of agricultural mechanization. The 50th anniversary model is a heavy-duty version designed and built for medium and large farms in need of a versatile tiller. This model C working width ranges from 2.1 m to 3.1 m and requires only 60-130 Hp. Thanks to the multi-speed gearbox, the C model has a broad spectrum of applications, from traditional seedbed preparation on tilled soils to the direct refinement of grassland or no-till soils. Furthermore, the machine is completely maintenance-free because of the Duo-Cone sealing system that protects rotor hubs from dust, mud and water. The side transmission features three gears in oil bath to ensure high performance even in the most demanding working conditions and the rear levelling hood is fitted with a spring adjustment system coming as standard equipment to guarantee perfect seedbed refinement in complete safety.
