The ultimate finisher on uneven terrain
The Wil-Rich QX2 field cultivator stands out as the industry standard in secondary tillage, providing an exceptional finishing touch before high-speed planting. Designed for the most challenging field conditions, the QX2’s floating hitch delivers precise depth control on uneven terrain, promoting excellent germination and higher yields.
Mechanical weed control
The Wil-Rich QX2 provides thorough tillage, making it an effective tool for mechanically removing weeds and reducing dependency on herbicides.
Optimal seedbed preparation
The Wil-Rich QX2 sets the stage for high yields by creating an optimal seedbed, which is critical to planter performance and even emergence.
Fertiliser and herbicide incorporation
Some herbicides and fertilisers must be incorporated at consistent depths to be most effective. The Wil-Rich QX2 design provides thorough mixing and precise depth keeping for best results.
Excellent agronomic performance
A secondary tillage pass can be critical to achieving a levelled surface, smooth running of the sowing unit, and maximum effect of soil herbicides. It also helps in setting a perfect seedbed, ensuring even emergence, and controlling weed seedlings to avoid interspecific competition. Give your crop the best chance to succeed while reducing risks at the same time with the Wil-Rich QX2 field cultivator.

Using the field cultivator for weed management
Tillage plays an important role in weed management, especially with the increase in herbicide resistance. The Wil-Rich QX2 excels at weed control, thanks to its split-the-middle tines pattern. This design ensures soil is tilled equally across the width of the implement, keeping escapes to a minimum and providing a clean seedbed to start the season.

A consistent seedbed for even emergence
A consistent seedbed provides a smooth planter ride, which is important for achieving proper seed depth, especially when planting at higher speeds. It also ensures each seed is planted in the exact same soil conditions so that they all emerge together. The tine pattern and finishing attachments on the Wil-Rich QX2 provide the ideal setup for creating the optimal seedbed.

Incorporating fertiliser and herbicides for maximum effectiveness
Some herbicides must be incorporated at shallow depths to work effectively. Similarly, some fertilisers can be worked into the soil to be more accessible to plant roots, while reducing the risk of runoff. The hitch design, gauge wheels, and single-point depth control on the Wil-Rich field cultivator can help incorporate the herbicides and fertilisers at precise depths.
Thorough tillage performance without plugging
To achieve consistent results with a field cultivator, no strip of soil should be left untouched. The Wil-Rich QX2 split-the-middle tine pattern is configured to thoroughly work the ground. Tines on each rank work in the middle of the untilled area left by the preceding tines. This ensures consistent tillage across the width of the machine. It also eliminates residue windrowing and decreases plugging. Additionally, the design maximises sweep life and provides superior incorporation of fertiliser and chemicals.
Single-spring tines for shallower depths and finer tillage
A single-spring tine option is ideal for shallower working depths and finer tillage performance. It provides excellent ground following capabilities with 68 kg of trip pressure, which can be adjusted up to 90 kg for slightly deeper penetration.
Double spring for tougher conditions and deeper tillage
The double-spring tine option is a better choice for tougher ground conditions or deeper tillage needs. It features a trip pressure of 136 kg, which can be adjusted up to 181 kg. The extra down pressure ensures better penetration in hard-packed soil and is often used behind the tractor wheel tracks to remove compaction.

Multi-section design provides superior ground following
The Wil-Rich QX2 field cultivator is engineered with three or five sections that closely follow ground contours, even on wider models. This flexibility helps maintain consistent tillage depth in all conditions. It’s the go-to solution for farmers seeking exceptional performance in secondary tillage and preparation for high-speed farming. Designed for strength and versatility, the QX2 offers precise depth control with its floating hitch, making it ideal for uneven terrain.
A closer look at the Wil-Rich QX2
T-hitch for a tighter turning radius
The T-hitch option allows for a tighter turning radius, since the narrower profile provides extra clearance between the hitch and rear tractor wheels. Like the A-hitch, it has a weight transfer kit that shifts weight onto the hitch for improved towing stability.
Gauge wheels engineered for better performance
An open design of the caster gauge wheels on the Wil-Rich field cultivator helps prevent them from negatively affecting tillage performance. As a result, operators experience minimised plugging with greater stability both in the field and on the road. Even more, they offer easy maintenance, so more time can be spent in the field.
Effortless single-point depth control
Need to adjust the tillage depth on the fly? Single-point depth control allows operators to adjust the working depth for the entire implement from a single location, instead of having to make manual adjustments at each gauge wheel. This feature can save a lot of time when fine-tuning tillage depth. It also means operators are more likely to make the adjustments needed to achieve the desired tillage results.
*Manual gauge wheel adjustments required on 30-39 and 32-42.
Creating the ideal seedbed
Four finishing attachment options are available to accommodate a variety of field conditions and personal preferences. Each option offers unique benefits in helping create the ideal seedbed.

- 3-bar coil tine harrow w/ rolling basket (flat bar)
- 4-bar coil tine harrow
- 5-bar spike tooth harrow
Consistent depth in uneven ground
The Wil-Rich QX2 is designed to maintain consistent tillage depth, despite fluctuations in the ground contour. This is made possible through the floating hitch, which pivots freely at the implement to help the field cultivator follow uneven terrain. Two floating hitch styles are available on the QX2 to meet the needs of different farming operations: an A-hitch and a T-hitch.
Choose Wil-Rich XL2 for level terrain
The main difference between the QX2 and XL2 models is the hitch type. XL2 models are equipped with the field-proven, time-tested level lift hitch, which allows weight transfer to the tractor. Designed for level field conditions, this hitch type creates a planter-ready seedbed.
Product concept
Zone 1 – Mixing
The cultivator features 17 cm (7 in) tine spacing arranged in 5 ranks, with the "split-the-middle" tine pattern ensuring consistent tillage across the machine's width. The edge-formed C-tines allow for maximum residue flow and are available with single or double spring cushions.
