Rotor Drive
The rotor drive is constructed with case-hardened, forged steel gears. The main frame is built from a large box-section casing.
KUHN EL 62, 82 and 92 Series power tillers are the result of a long history in soil preparation and decades of research and development. These tillers have been designed with versatility and durability for vineyard, market garden, horticulture and nursery operators. Their compact design allows you to till in vineyards and orchards, without damaging plants or trees. You are able to make simple adjustments from the comfort of your cab enabling fast adaptation to all situations. The EL 62, 82 and 92 power tillers are all highly reliable and are built to last to provide you with continued peace of mind.
Your benefits
Great Durability – Built to last
Central Gearbox
On the bigger models, the central gearbox is cast iron and set back for reduced PTO angles. A friction slip clutch is standard for protection of the drivetrain. The Duplex gearbox with two speeds is standard on the EL 92. Two additional speeds are available as optional equipment, offering the adaptation capability to various working conditions.
Heavy-Duty Frame
The EL 62, 82 and 92 power tillers are grouped together by a large frame providing high rigidity and exceptional endurance. The front portion is integrated with the casting, increasing the machine’s strength and giving you the potential to attach other equipment if needed.
Multiple Choices for Productivity
Skids or Wheels
On the EL 62, 82 and 92 power tiller models, working depth is controlled by using skids or wheels. These wheels are intended for work not requiring the surface to be entirely uniform. The front wheels have adjustable spacing and will roll over firm soil without leaving tracks in the worked soil.
Roller Options
On select models of the EL 82 and all models of the EL 92, you can chose from either the Crumbler roller or Packer roller to help meet your soil preparation needs.
The Crumbler roller is a small 15.4” diameter roller suitable for use on dry, non-sticky soils without an integrated seed drill.
The Packer roller is 20” diameter and suitable for a wide range of soil conditions, but especially recommended for clay soils that harden while drying. The Packer roller is suitable for use with a lighter integrated drill.
The Crumbler roller is a small 15.4” diameter roller suitable for use on dry, non-sticky soils without an integrated seed drill.
The Packer roller is 20” diameter and suitable for a wide range of soil conditions, but especially recommended for clay soils that harden while drying. The Packer roller is suitable for use with a lighter integrated drill.
C-Blades
The special curved design of the KUHN tiller “C” blades has been optimized, tested and provides chopping and mixing of plant residues, aggressive entry into hard soil while requiring less horsepower and increased crumbling of soil clods. The EL Series is fitted with six blades per flange as standard for efficient crumbling.
Rear Hood
The optimized design of the rear hood is adjustable, especially valuable when changing work intensity with C-blades for optimum tillage and plant residue handling.
Providing High Work Quality and Versatility
Progressive Lateral Offset
Offset hitch capability normally allows a tiller that is narrower than the tractor to erase the tractor wheel track on its right side. Offsetting the hitch is easily accomplished by sliding the three yokes of the tiller frame. Thanks to this continuous manual offset, the machine can be adapted according to the situation to ensure stability.
Compact Design
All KUHN power tillers for vineyard and orchards are a very compact design for efficient operations in narrow rows. The small overall width-to-working width ratio of the EL 62, 82, and 92 shines through. Moreover, the rounded hood edges and skids protect plants from damage.

![Larry Kalugin - KUHN VKD 155 shredder, and EL 82 power tiller]()
Larry Kalugin Caneberry Farmer
"My wife and I run a caneberry farm in Woodburn, Ore. We own several pieces of KUHN equipment, including a pair of VKD 155 shredders, a pair of EL 82 power tillers and an MDS 62 fertilizer spreader. Over the years we have used other brands of equipment, but find ourselves continually coming back to KUHN. The tillers in particular are by far the smoothest and quietest we've ever used."
