Hench's 20th Century 

 Steel Ball Coupling Cultivator 



This is a perfect machine for both rolling and level land. 



Pivot axle, easy of adjustment, simple arrangement to accommodate the 

 machine for narrow rows. Can be furnished either for pin or spring hoe. 



Fig. 51 shows the ball and socket coupling with one cap removed. The 

 shovel gangs are coupled in front by steel balls, 1J in. diameter, and malle- 

 able sockets having larger running surface and no lost motion whatever. 

 This simple arrangement prevents the lateral movement so common in this 

 style of machine, so that, if the shovel happens to strike a bunch of grass, it 

 will not glance around, but will cut it out. By simply 

 slacking four nuts cn the wheel standards they can be 

 moved in or out on the axle, narrowing the wheels from 

 46 inches, the widest point, to 34 inches, the narrowest 

 point, between the wheels. 



Wheels 32 inches high, made of steel, with 2 inch tread, 

 malleable hubs, removable boxes, which can be replaced 

 if worn out. Weight, about 375 pounds.
