Land Preparation — AWL Kenya

Soilmaster 9 Tine Chisel Plough

The Soilmaster 9 Tine Chisel Plough is the flagship model in the Soilmaster chisel plough range, designed for large commercial farms and agricultural contractors requiring maximum coverage per pass. Nine rigid tines on a 2.7 m frame deliver deep, thorough hardpan-breaking performance across the widest working width in the series.Requiring 120–160 HP, the 9-tine chisel plough is matched to the high-horsepower tractors operating on Kenya's largest arable, cereal, and sugarcane operations. At 2.7 m working width, it dramatically reduces the number of passes needed per hectare compared to smaller models, compressing the seasonal tillage window and reducing fuel costs per hectare.AWL supplies and supports Soilmaster chisel ploughs in Kenya, with spare tine points and expert technical support from our Nakuru and Eldoret branches.

What sets it apart

Built to get more done per pass

Obstacle Protection System

Soilmaster's safety bolt and free-swing flail design absorbs stone and stump impacts without frame damage — protecting machine and operator.

Wide, Even Mulch Cut

High-speed flail rotor delivers a consistent, wide cut that shreds crop residue and surface vegetation into fine, even mulch.

Mid-HP Tractor Compatible

Designed for 45–80 HP tractors — integrates with Zetor and common mid-HP tractors available through AWL Kenya.

Low Maintenance Operation

Greasable rotor bearings, easy flail replacement, and accessible gearbox inspection points minimise downtime between working seasons.

Efficient Power Transfer

Soilmaster gearbox and PTO drivetrain are optimised for low power loss — extracting maximum rotor speed from available tractor HP.

AWL Service & Spare Parts

Genuine Soilmaster replacement flails, gearbox parts, and service support available through AWL Kenya nationwide.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The Soilmaster 9 tine chisel plough requires 120–160 HP with a Category III three-point linkage. Under-powered tractors will fail to maintain working depth in hard conditions.

A single pass with the 9 tine covers 2.7 m versus two overlapping passes with a 5 tine covering 3.0 m — similar coverage but the 9 tine requires fewer operator hours and reduces compaction from extra tractor passes.

Chisel ploughs are generally suited to stony conditions as the rigid tines push through most stones. However, very rocky ground may cause tine breakage — contact AWL for soil-specific recommendations.

Wear rate depends heavily on soil type. Sandy, abrasive soils wear points faster than loam. Expect 50–200 hectares per set of points, depending on conditions.

Yes. AWL stocks replacement tine points for all Soilmaster chisel plough models in Nairobi. Contact our parts team for bulk pricing for commercial operations.
