Description
BRABER BE-FC9S Heavy-Duty Spring-Loaded Tine Cultivator is a 7-foot-class cultivator designed for field cultivation and seedbed preparation. Built around nine double-coil spring tines, heavy-duty shanks, and a solid welded frame, it helps prepare soil with a durable 3-point-mounted implement suited to tractors in the verified 40–45 HP range. The reversible 2-1/4 in x 12 in shovels or points provide a practical wear component for ongoing tillage and soil-preparation work.
Product Overview
The BRABER BE-FC9S combines spring-loaded tine construction with heavy-duty shanks to create a robust cultivator for routine soil preparation. Its nine double-coil spring tines are designed to work through cultivated ground while the reversible points provide two usable edges before replacement is required. A solid welded frame supports the tine assembly and is built for use with a Category 2, 3-point hitch.
With a verified current manufacturer width of 84 inches and a catalogue-listed working width of 72 inches, this cultivator is configured for efficient coverage across field and seedbed areas. Its 575 lb weight and 3-point design make tractor lift capacity and hitch compatibility important considerations before operation.

Field Cultivation and Seedbed Preparation
The BE-FC9S is intended for tillage and soil-preparation work where a spring-loaded tine cultivator is appropriate. Its nine tine arrangement provides a broad working configuration, while the double-coil spring design allows the tine assembly to be spring loaded during operation. The reversible shovel points support serviceability by allowing the working edges to be reversed when required.
Tractor Requirements and Compatibility
This implement is specified for tractors rated at 40–45 HP and equipped with a Category 2, 3-point hitch. Confirm that the tractor’s hitch category, lift capacity, and operating setup are suitable for the 575 lb BE-FC9S before use.
Important specification note: The current manufacturer product information lists the BE-FC9S as 84 inches wide. An older BRABER catalogue lists a 72-inch working width and 79-inch total width, as well as a 30–50 HP rating and Category 1 information. These older catalogue dimensions and requirements are shown separately because they conflict with the current product information. The current verified specifications are used for the primary product details above.
