America’s Favorite Vertical Tillage Machine Made More Versatile

How can America’s favorite vertical tillage machine be made even better?  That was a tough challenge for the design engineering department and sales staff, but listening to feedback from 7400 VT Plus customers was critical.  Customers were asking for a VT unit that could adapt to changing field environments and could be used in a variety of residue conditions.  The result is the 7500 Series VT Plus with Adjustable Gangs.

New and Improved 7531 (8-18) Adjustable Gang VT Plus

The 7531 (8-18) Adjustable Gang VT Plus features an infinitely adjustable gang angle of 8 to 18 degrees, which can be adjusted on the go from the comfort of the tractor cab.  The increased gang angle provides more versatility allowing the unit to be used in both spring and fall applications.  The increased gang angle also allows the new 7531 to be more aggressive and achieve more mixing action in tough residue conditions.  As field conditions change, the gang angle can be decreased if less mixing is desired.

Perfectly Size and Mix Residue and Soil

The 7500 Series VT Plus with Adjustable Gangs still has the same proven features as its predecessor.  The 24” smooth blades stay sharper longer and handle rocks and stones better than the ripple or fluted blades offered by competitive brands.  In wet, sticky conditions, the smooth surface sheds residue better and is easily kept clean by heavy-duty scrapers.

The 7500 VT Plus is carried by walking tandem wheels and high flotation tires for outstanding ground following capabilities.  The wider tires leave a minimal impression in the soil, allowing the unit to be run at shallower depths.  The folding models fold to a narrow transport width and the weight of the machine is equally distributed on the transport tires.

User Friendly and Built to Last

The newly designed 7531 (8-18) is equipped with user-friendly automatic transport locks on the center lift axle and folded wings.  These safety features will ensure the unit is transported safely with the operator not having to leave the tractor.  The 7531 is currently available in 23′, 26′, 29′, 32′ and 35′ sizes.  The 32′ and 35′ models are offered with an optional dual wheel transport kit with 8 tires on the center section and larger 4″ spindles increasing reliability for road travel.  The 7500 Series VT with adjustable gangs is also available in a 14′ rigid model and 40′ and 45′ five-section folding models, which feature the 5 to 15 degree gang adjustment.

Every disc gang is equipped with C-flex hangers that provide cushion protection against rocks and other obstructions.  The scraper bar is mounted to the C-flex hangers allowing scrapers and disc blades to move simultaneously with each other.  The self-aligning feature of each trunnion bearing allows bearing realignment as the hangers flex and move.  Bearings are triple-lip sealed and cannot be over-greased and are covered by Landoll’s three-year limited warranty policy.

The rock shaft is protected by UHMW polymer which eliminates wear and maintenance requirements.  Hinge joints are equipped with hardened pins that rotate on maintenance-free polymer bushings for improved machine performance and extended life of the hinge.

Adjustments are user-friendly; hydraulically controlled fore to aft leveling can be adjusted on the go.  Wing frame leveling is also simple and all adjustment wrenches are stored on the frame.  And the innovative ease of adjusting the gang angle on the go from the tractor makes the 7500 VT Plus a user-friendly, simple but versatile vertical tillage unit built tough to perform for years to come.  That’s the Landoll way!
