HAK EX-series

HAK EX-series ridge hoeing machine

The HAK EX Series ridge hoeing machineis a versatile and lightweight machine for mechanical weed control in all crops grown on ridges, such as potatoes, chicory, winter carrots, carrots, parsnips and salsify. This solid construction makes it the choice for efficient tillage. The machine can be easily mounted behind a tractor, and its open construction gives you a better view of the work and plenty of room for adjustments.

The HAK EX ridge hoeing machine is available in different widths and designs, ranging from a basic model to a full options version, depending on your specific requirements. The frame is made of high-quality steel with 80 x 80 mm tubular beams connected to mounting beams for implements that can be placed at any distance. Hinges are adjustable to level the machine, and adding support wheels creates an extremely stable hoeing machine. The height of the machine is easily adjusted with spindles.

Implements such as cultivators, ridging hoods and ridging discs are easily adjusted to depth with spindles, minimizing set-up time and allowing quick adjustment to daily conditions. The slim design of the HAK EX machines allows them to maneuver easily through crops without causing crop damage. In addition, the lack of parallels makes the machine low maintenance, contributing to efficient and worry-free operation.

Endives, carrots, potatoes, etc.


The HAK ridge hoeing machine is suitable for row spacing of 75cm. The machine is successfully applied in crops such as potato, endives, winter carrot, parsnip and black salsify crops. The machine comes standard with front hoes, row cultivators and ridge shaper and can be expanded with plough discs, ridging discs, leaf protection shields and a second set of plough discs. The possibilities of this machine are endless; hoeing (also for seeding), ridging, building up ridges (after tilling), adding soil on the ridge or just brushing it off.

Hoeing, ridging, building up, maintaining and repairing your ridges.
The front hoe cuts the weeds in the trench and underside of the ridge, while the plow disc hoes the upper part of the ridge. So with this machine you can cut away very little or very much soil. The cultivator pulls the soil loose, uproots the weeds and works them under, then the ridging disc accurately turns the soil back onto the ridge and the ridge shaper/scraper presses the ridge. Ridging scrapers pull the soil a bit loose after the ridging discs, which prevents the trench from drying out and spares the ridging hood, minimizing maintenance costs.

The ridging disc is equipped with scraper blades, keeping the disc clean and making the shedding height adjustable. Do your roots rise above the back? Then set the haulm protection shields 1-2 cm above the back and the scrapers of the ridging discs slightly upward. The cultivators can also be set slightly deeper with the spindle adjustment. This ensures that you cover the roots with just the right amount of soil, also covering and controlling small weeds. The shields are also suitable for scraping the top of the ridge clean; set them a few millimeters into the ridge to clean the top. When hoeing for emergence, it is possible to add center segments to the ridging hood/back shaper. As the crop grows, you can continue to work as usual. The crop guides mounted on the pre-emergence hoes lift the crop from below the back and guide it during the machine’s passage. This results in minimal crop damage, even at an advanced growth stage.

Easy to set up
The use of smart clamping systems, spindle adjustment and size distributions on the implements minimizes setup time. Most implements can be adjusted without tools. The hoe depth can be adjusted by means of 1 bolt. The other elements are also designed to be user-friendly while maintaining flexibility.

Licht gewicht
HAK keeps its machines as light as possible without sacrificing strength and rigidity. A lighter machine helps minimize soil compaction and can be easily corrected. Stability is also guaranteed by the backlash-free spindles that only HAK supplies. You have come to the right place for a ridge hoeing machine. This makes it possible to weed the ridges efficiently and keep them free of weeds. In addition, HAK also supplies transport equipment, potato turners, ridging machines, hoeing machines, hoe knives and many other products. All products guaranteed excellent quality combined with extensive after sales service.
