| Smart Frame System | The Smart Frame System enables fully hydraulic working depth adjustment of the discs, conveniently direct from the cab, without any manual adjustment to the frame. Depth control is provided by the leading guide wheels and the following roller. The system thus offers maximum comfort for the driver and allows the working depth to be adjusted flexibly to suit the soil conditions. The system offers particular advantages in moist and heavy ground containing a lot of organic matter. By rotating the discs into the ground, when working deeper, the discs are swivelled away from the frame and rear packer. This increases the distance between the discs and the main frame and also between the discs and the following roller. This allows the free space in the Implement to be enlarged significantly, so that organic material can be easily mixed in, even under the most difficult of conditions. The height-adjustable end disc ensures optimum matching up to the previous pass. For farms that operate on a Controlled Traffic Farming basis, AMAZONE offers an optional extended disc element with a working width of 12.25 m for the Catros+ 12003-2TX. |

| Wide disc option | The Catros is equipped with 510 mm discs as standard, which are available in smooth, fine-serrated and coarse-serrated versions, and are suitable for working depths of 5 to 14 cm. The X-Cutter disc, in a diameter of 480 mm, is now also available as an option for the new Catros+ 12003-2TX, ideal for very shallow working and surface cultivation at depths as little as 2-8 cm. The X-Cutter disc impresses with its intensive shredding and mixing of the soil at a shallow working depth. The discs are suspended individually and protected from overload via the elastic sprung rubber buffer blocks. The maintenance-free Catros disc bearings with face seals ensure high operational reliability. The V-form layout of the discs ensure even mixing of the soil and an optimum quality of work across the entire working width. |

| Optimum reconsolidation | A choice of 5 different packers are available for reconsolidation in different soil conditions. In addition to the simple packers such as the SW 600 cage roller, the KWM 600 and KWM 650 wedge ring rollers with matrix tyre profile and the DW 600 disc roller, AMAZONE now offers the double U-profile roller, the DUW 580 pro. The DUW 580 pro is particularly suitable for very light soils. The Catros can be optionally equipped with a Cat. 3 and Cat. 4 lower link cross shaft, the K 80 ball point coupling or with drawbar eyes for convenient attachment to a variety of tractors. |

| ContourFrame | ContourFrame enables individual flotation of the separate segments on hilly terrain. Thanks to the new, 5-part division of the segments, even better terrain adaptation is achieved. The segments follow the contours both upwards and downwards, enabling full-area coverage, even on very undulating terrain. The segments, which are controlled by hydraulic accumulators, work at an even depth and are actively pressurised in order to work reliably on hard ground. |
|
| New chassis design and folding concept | The Catros+ 12003-2TX is characterised by the new 5-part folding system, which enables its integration into the TX chassis. The mid-mounted TX chassis offers excellent road-running characteristics thanks to the generously dimensioned transport tyres. With the optional pneumatic braking system, approval for 40 km/h can be obtained. The ComfortClick electric switch box is available, as an option, for the quick and easy changeover between the transport and the working positions. This makes for the convenient changeover direct from the tractor seat. This further increases driver comfort and efficiency when changing fields. On the headland, the Catros+ 12003-2TX turns on the packer rollers. The implement's disc element is quickly and easily lifted out of the soil using the hydraulic drawbar. As a result, the implement runs very stably and smoothly, allowing it to be turned gently - even on uneven headlands. |
