GRIZZLY Engineering will be exhibiting in its own right this year at Agfest.

Marketing manager Skye Poltrock said he was looking forward to Agfest, where the company would have a range of equipment on display.

"Grizzly has been at Agfest before to support local dealers, but this will be the first time we will be there with our own dedicated site," Skye said.

"It is, without doubt, one of the busiest field days in Australia and an ideal venue to promote the Grizzly Engineering range."

Pride of place on the site will be a set of Fieldmaster offset discs.

Skye said the 48-plate Fieldmaster was well suited to Tasmania's horticultural and vegetable production.

"The Fieldmaster hydraulically folds from a working width of 5.5m to a transport width of 2.5m, so it is easy to move around," Skye said.

"Plus, it has a ground clearance of 350mm in transport mode, so it can handle quite a lot of variation in road surfaces."

Skye said the Fieldmaster was made in Australia and featured "twist in-twist out" greasable bearings which carried a two-year warranty.

"It's a unique bearing system and, being a tandem offset disc, there is no side drafting when its in use," Skye said.

"It's efficient for the tractor and it leaves a nice even finish in the paddock for seed-bed preparation work."

The tandem-disc gangs can be varied hydraulically from 16 to 25 degrees, which varies the aggressiveness of the cut.

Skye said the Fieldmaster required a minimum of 97kW engine power in the tractor towing it and the weight on each disc was 170kg.

"The standard disc is 710mm in diameter and, across the four disc gangs, there is a total of 48 plates or discs," he said.

"The frame is box steel which measures 200 by 100 by 9mm, so it's very durable."

Grizzly Engineering will also display its grader blade, which, Skye said, was popular with councils and farmers.

"The three-point linkage, hydraulic blade can be varied four ways and it can be set up with hydraulic or manual adjustment," he said.

"It's great for general earthmoving or reforming driveways or laneways.

"They can be set up to suit a category two or three rear hitch and the 1.8m-long blade weighs 800kg."
