Photograph of a Finn mulching machine demonstration. A Finn Klodbuster consisting of a series of chains with picks, which revolve around on swivels as it is being pulled. A variable weight slope wheel keeps the chain at an approximate right angle to the towing vehicle on slopes 3:1 and steeper. ¾ inch reinforcing steel picks with blunt ends are best for loose, coarse textured soil and for renovation work.

A variable weight slope wheel keeps the chain at an approximate right angle to the towing vehicle on slopes 3:1 and steeper. Here the Klodbuster is being used to spike or tie down a straw mulch. The unit should be long enough to cover the area with one through [sic] to avoid leaving a deep track on the dam made by the wheel at the end of the chain. OK-215-3.
