Product Overview

The TGEC disc harrow is a heavy-duty soil prep attachment built for breaking up compacted ground, prepping seedbeds, chopping weeds and crop residue, and maintaining arena footing. Its combined notched and smooth disc configuration gives you aggressive cutting for primary tillage while the smooth discs level and finish — often in a single pass, or fewer passes than single-disc designs. As part of the TGEC skid steer rake attachment range, the disc harrow handles the soil-focused ground prep that tine-based rakes simply can't do.

The TG-DH96 delivers a 96-inch working width with 22-inch notched discs (10mm thick) for cutting through sod, roots, and compacted soil, backed by 24-inch smooth discs (12mm thick) for leveling and finishing. The disc angle adjusts manually from 5° to 25°, letting you match aggressiveness to the job — shallow finishing at 5–10°, moderate seedbed prep at 12–18°, or deep primary tillage at 20–25°. At 666 kg, it's built for mid-size and large-frame skid steers. For operators looking at broader rake applications, our skid steer rake applications guide covers how different attachment types compare across soil and site conditions.

How It Works

The disc harrow works through the skid steer's forward motion and the weight of the attachment driving the rotating discs into the soil. The notched discs (22", 10mm thick) cut through sod, roots, and compacted soil with their scalloped edges, while the smooth discs (24", 12mm thick) follow to break up clods and level the surface. The operator adjusts the disc angle manually: steeper angles (20–25°) deliver aggressive cutting and deep penetration for primary tillage in hard, compacted soil, typically taking 2–3 passes; medium angles (12–18°) provide moderate cutting and leveling for seedbed prep in 1–2 passes; shallow angles (5–10°) give gentle finishing and leveling in a single pass. For weed control, steeper angles (18–22°) let the notched discs chop and incorporate weeds and crop residue. Arena footing maintenance uses shallow to medium angles (8–15°) to gently loosen and level sand, dirt, or synthetic surfaces without deep disturbance.

Application Scenarios

  • Primary tillage of hard, compacted soil on construction sites and agricultural fields

  • Seedbed preparation for lawn establishment, pasture renovation, and crop planting

  • Weed control and chopping, incorporating weeds and crop residue into the soil

  • Breaking up hardpan and compacted layers to improve drainage and root penetration

  • Light finishing and leveling before planting, paving, or turf installation

  • Arena and footing maintenance for equestrian facilities, loosening and leveling sand or dirt surfaces

  • Soil preparation for landscaping projects, including grading and seedbed finishing

Installation & Mounting

The disc harrow mounts to any skid steer with the standard universal quick-attach interface. Align the quick-attach plate with the machine's coupler, engage the locking levers, and secure the safety pins. No hydraulic connections needed — the disc angle adjusts manually using locking pins on the disc gang frame. Before first use, confirm the disc angle locking pins are fully engaged and all disc bearings are properly greased. At 666 kg, this attachment needs a skid steer with adequate rated operating capacity; verify your machine can safely lift and transport the loaded attachment.

Wear & Service

The discs are the primary wear components. Before each use, inspect both notched and smooth discs for cracking, excessive wear, or loose mounting hardware. Check disc bearings for proper grease levels and smooth rotation — grease them every 10–20 operating hours or per the manufacturer's interval. Inspect the disc gang frame and welds for fatigue or cracking, especially after heavy use in rocky soil. After each work session, clean soil and debris from between the discs and around the bearings to prevent corrosion and binding. Keep the disc angle adjustment pins and holes clean and lightly lubricated. Replace discs when wear reduces diameter by more than 10% or when cracking appears.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a skid steer disc harrow used for?+

A skid steer disc harrow is used for breaking up compacted soil, preparing seedbeds, chopping weeds and crop residue, and leveling ground surfaces. It combines notched discs for aggressive cutting with smooth discs for finishing, making it suitable for primary tillage, secondary tillage, weed control, and arena footing maintenance.

What soil conditions are suitable for a disc harrow?+

A disc harrow works effectively in a range of soil conditions, from hard, compacted soil and hardpan to looser seedbeds and sandy arena footing. In very hard or dry soil, steeper disc angles (20–25°) and multiple passes are needed. In wet or clay-heavy soil, discs may clog; allow soil to dry to a workable moisture level. Rocky soil can accelerate disc wear and may require reduced operating speed.

How does a disc harrow prepare or break up soil?+

A disc harrow breaks up soil through the weight of the attachment and the forward motion of the skid steer, which drives the rotating discs into the ground. The notched discs cut through sod, roots, and compacted layers with their scalloped edges, while the smooth discs follow to break up clods and level the surface. The disc angle controls aggressiveness: steeper angles penetrate deeper and cut more aggressively, while shallower angles provide lighter finishing.

What skid steer size is appropriate for a disc harrow?+

The TG-DH96 disc harrow weighs 666 kg (1468 lb) and has a 96-inch working width, making it appropriate for mid-size and large-frame skid steer loaders. The machine must have a rated operating capacity that safely exceeds the attachment weight plus the additional load from soil engagement. Compact or small-frame skid steers may struggle with the weight and width; verify your machine's specifications before operating.

How is a skid steer disc harrow mounted?+

The disc harrow uses the standard universal quick-attach interface. The operator aligns the attachment plate with the skid steer's quick-attach coupler, engages the locking levers, and secures the safety pins. No hydraulic connections are required. The entire mounting process takes under two minutes. After mounting, verify that the locking pins are fully engaged and that the attachment is secure before operating.

What attachment interface should be checked before installation?+

Before installation, verify that your skid steer is equipped with the standard universal quick-attach interface (also known as the universal mounting plate or quick coupler). Check that the coupler locking levers and pins operate smoothly and are not worn or damaged. Inspect the attachment's mounting plate for any deformation or weld cracks that could affect secure mounting. If your machine uses a non-standard or brand-specific coupler, an adapter plate may be required.

What working width should be selected?+

The TG-DH96 offers a 96-inch (2440mm) working width, which is suited for mid-size and large-frame skid steers and covers ground efficiently for agricultural, landscaping, and arena applications. When selecting width, consider your skid steer's lift capacity and horsepower, the typical working space (narrow areas may require a narrower attachment), and the desired productivity. A wider attachment covers more ground per pass but requires a more powerful machine to operate effectively.

How does soil condition affect disc harrow performance?+

Soil condition directly affects disc harrow performance. In hard, dry, or compacted soil, the discs may not penetrate effectively without steeper angles and multiple passes. In wet or clay-heavy soil, discs can clog with mud, reducing cutting efficiency and increasing drag. In sandy or loamy soil, the discs penetrate easily and provide a smooth finish with fewer passes. Rocky soil accelerates disc wear and can cause disc damage. Adjust disc angle and operating speed to match soil conditions for optimal results.

What materials are the discs typically designed to handle?+

The notched discs are designed to cut through sod, roots, weeds, crop residue, and compacted soil. Their scalloped edges provide aggressive cutting for fibrous and woody material. The smooth discs are designed to break up soil clods, level the surface, and finish the seedbed. Together, they handle a range of organic and mineral soil materials. The discs are not designed for cutting through large rocks, concrete, or metal, which can cause cracking or excessive wear.

Which disc components are subject to wear?+

The primary wear components are the notched and smooth discs themselves, which wear from contact with soil, rocks, and organic material. Disc edges gradually lose their sharpness and diameter decreases over time. The disc bearings also experience wear from rotation and dust ingress and require regular greasing. The disc mounting hardware (bolts, spacers, and gang bolts) can loosen or wear under vibration. The disc angle adjustment pins and holes are subject to wear from repeated adjustment.

How should the discs and frame be maintained?+

After each use, clean soil and debris from between the discs and around the bearings using a pressure washer or stiff brush. Inspect discs for cracks, excessive wear, or loose mounting. Grease all disc bearings every 10–20 operating hours or per the manufacturer's interval. Inspect the frame and welds for fatigue or cracking, particularly after heavy use. Check and retorque disc mounting bolts as needed. Keep the disc angle adjustment pins and holes clean and lightly lubricated. Store the attachment on a level surface with discs off the ground to prevent flat spots and corrosion.

What factors should contractors consider when selecting a disc harrow?+

Contractors should consider the working width relative to their skid steer size and project scale, the disc configuration (notched and smooth discs provide both cutting and finishing in one attachment), the disc angle adjustment range for matching different soil conditions and applications, the attachment weight relative to machine capacity, and the mounting interface compatibility. Additional factors include disc thickness and durability for rocky soil, bearing quality and serviceability, and the availability of replacement discs and wear parts. The TG-DH96's 96-inch width and combined disc configuration suit contractors who need a versatile tillage attachment for agricultural, landscaping, and arena work.
