2026 Kubota Great Plains Turbo-Max® VT1100-35

Turbo-Max® is the industry leader in vertical tillage tools, especially for min-tillers who want to size and anchor residue without aggressively working the ground in the fall. It vertically cuts residue and fractures the soil to create a smooth seedbed for uniform seed emergence. Because Turbo-Max® is a true vertical tillage implement, it does not create compaction layers, giving roots the freedom to reach nutrients and moisture.

The industry-leading Turbo-Max® now offers even greater agronomic benefits and operator convenience! The innovative Implement Command® System from Great Plains allows producers to control, adjust, and monitor their Turbo-Max® from the comfort of their tractor cab. Implement Command is available on new 18'-48' Turbo-Max models.

With working widths ranging from 8.5 to 48, operations of all sizes have access to the benefits of vertical tillage. Each Turbo-Max® is designed with two rows of coulter gangs, with blades spaced 7½" apart. The rear gangs offset the front gangs, splitting the blade spacing to 3¾" for superior residue sizing in one pass. This allows the Turbo-Max® to provide true vertical cutting without the shearing caused by concave blades.

Features may include:

The hydraulic reel allows you to conveniently adjust down pressure or lift out of the ground with in-cab hydraulic operation. An easy-to-read pressure gauge allows for easy down-pressure monitoring from the tractor seat! This design maintains travel regardless of the selected down pressure. A hydraulic cylinder is used to preload down-pressure springs. When field conditions are not ideal, the reel can be raised completely out of the ground.

Hydraulic fore/aft leveling allows the operator to easily adjust and level the implement from the cab without any wrenches or tools needed. This feature is now standard on models 18' and wider.

Gangs angle on the Turbo-Max® from 0° to 6°. In the fall, angle the gangs from 3° to 6° to size and cover residue, then set the gangs at 0° in the spring to prepare the ultimate seedbed. Larger models (12' and wider) are equipped with hydraulic cylinders to make gang angle changes on the go. Heavy, ductile cast spools keep the weight in the gangs, ensuring reliability of the C-shanks and bearings.

With 20" Turbo coulters spaced 7½" apart, Turbo-Max® provides true vertical cutting without the shearing caused by concave blades. Offset front and rear gangs achieve an effective residue cutting width of 3¾" when running at 0°.

The hydraulic weight transfer creates an even, constant downforce across the entire width of the implement to ensure uniform penetration and eliminate the possibility for the wings to float.

Rolling spike harrow tines split Turbo coulters to ensure thorough mixing of soil and residue, resulting in a smooth, uniform seedbed for optimum planter performance.

Turbo-Max® features two gangs — each with 7½" spacing between coulters — with the rear gang offset from the front gang. The gangs work together to size residue to an industry-leading 3¾".
