Access Mole plough

Reaches the Drains Other Ploughs Can't
An extended Quickleg blade lets this mole plough access creeks and drainways under wire fences without pulling fence posts first. Hydraulic operation and ground-contour following keep drainage consistent through clay subsoil, so water actually leaves the paddock instead of sitting on it.
Horsepower

Benefits

What Your Operation Gets Back

Reaches Drains Others Miss

An extended Quickleg blade gets to creeks and drainways under single wire fences, no pulling fence posts first.

Water Actually Leaves

Consistent drainage through clay subsoil means water moves off the paddock instead of sitting on it.

Follows the Ground

Ground-contour following keeps drainage even across uneven paddocks, not just the flat sections.

The details

What makes it work

  • 01

    Quickleg Blade

    The self-cleaning Quickleg blade needs no pasture pre-cutter, so you can plough faster and turn tighter at corners, finishing drainage work sooner.
  • 02

    Revolving Plug

    A cast, hardened 75mm plug revolves and floats as it works, wearing evenly and following ground contours to form clean, long-lasting mole drains.
  • 03

    Hydraulic Blade Extension

    The blade extends hydraulically behind the frame to pass under single-wire fences and drop into an open drain, starting drains where water leaves the paddock.
  • 04

    Full Floating Headstock

    A full floating headstock and long twin RHS frame follow ground contours for even drain depth, with clean entry and exit from the ground.

Expert advice

Tips from the Rata team

  • The floating headstock follows ground contours automatically, so you don't need to fight the plough to keep it level.
