Recommended Implements & Sizing Guide

Engineering recommendations for Apollo 254 based on its 25 HP power envelope and ASAE agricultural standards.

Implement & OperationRecommended SizeWorkload RatingEngineering Notes
Moldboard PlowPrimary Tillage
1 to 2 Bottom (12")1 - 2 铧 (30 cm)Light DutyIdeal for garden plots and light sandy soil.
Rotary Cutter / MowerMowing & Clearing
5 ft (60 in)1.5 mMedium DutyPasture maintenance and weeds up to 1.5" diameter.
Rotary TillerSeedbed Prep
