OK I stand corrected, the disk is a JD KBA. The width, disk to disk, with the gangs closed is 12 feet 5 inches.
What I am curious about is the type or amount of linkage needed to connect the cylinder to the rock shaft.
This was always a drag type disk. Logic kept telling me the front pillow block is for a hydraulic cylinder.
For awhile I thought it could use a cylinder to open and close the gangs.
It must have taken an extremely long cylinder or an elaborate set of linkage to drive the rock shaft.
Anyone with any pictures or literature?
