How To Do More With An ATV Or Compact Tractor
Oakwind Mfg. has the tools you need to get more work out of ATV’s, UTV’s and compact tractors. Their 3-pt. mounted and tow-behind tools include cultivators, rippers, plows and packers. The tools are sized for wildlife food plots, market gardens and more. The small tools are perfect for getting into tight spaces or large areas for landscape or conservation work.
    “I had been farming and working as an engineer my whole life,” explains Ross Koberlein, Oakwind Mfg. “When I retired from my last engineering job, I decided to make and market smaller size equipment that is high quality. All our main frames are powder coated, and our welds are all high quality.”
    Currently Koberlein makes all the equipment in his farm shop. However, his equipment is building a nationwide reputation. He has shipped pieces from California and Washington to states in the South, throughout the Midwest and the East.
    “My first piece was a 5-shank cultivator/ripper,” says Koberlein. “Over time I added the single shank ripper, brush and clippings rake, disc and other tools. The cultipacker is our best seller. You can till with lots of tools, but if planting small seeds, they need to be firmed down. You need something to roll it.”
    Oakwind tools with 3-pt. mounts match up to any Cat. I hitch tractor. Tools like the cultipacker and the cultipacker/disc are pull-type for even wider applications.
    Prices vary with the pull-type cultipacker and disc combination listed at $1,395. The straw crimper/cultipacker and roller/spiker are priced the same. Both the 3-pt. cultipacker and the pull type are priced at $995, and the single shank ripper with stand is priced at $275.
    Oakwind sells its tools online and from select dealers.
