That ridger is for a Monrotiller series 2 and 3 machines. See extract from owners manual below.

Does the Monroetiller have sufficient power to drag this through the soil? I guess it depends on soil type – it might struggle in my clay based soil.

Thanks for your help, I knew I had seen it before, Just couldnt think where! I got it from my first car Boot sale this year last Sunday, I picked up a very nice copper faced hammer, and the chap offered me the ridger for £10.00 then £5.00 then £3.00 finally giving it to me for Free! Si it,s a bargain if ever I get a Monroetiller!

John the furrower does not add too much additional load as the soil it moves is loose having been broken up by the miller.
