CompanyProle
Australia’s largest manufacturer and exporter
of Disc ploughs, Grizzly Engineering Pty
Ltd is an Australian owned and operated
manufacturing company based at Swan Hill in
Victoria.
Like many other Australian icons of ingenuity,
the Grizzly plough was founded on need.
The Grizzly name was established in the
early 1980’s by country people with the will to
construct a better o󰀨set disc plough.
In 1983, a unique three gang, tandem o󰀨set
disc design was patented and released. This
innovative Grizzly plough provided complete
ploughing out (no unworked ridges), less
working draught, elimination of side draught
and longer disc life. Other new features, at
that time, included self phasing wheel lift and
improved scrapers.
Grizzly’s broad range of versatile ploughs
suit a wide variety of agricultural applications.
Sizes vary from 1.4 metres to 15.6 metres
working width.
Grizzly also manufacture Bankers,
Renovators, and a large range of subsoil and
row crop Rippers from 1 tine.
Advantages of Grizzly technology include
lower power requirements, signicant fuel
savings, reduced stress on components,
reduced maintenance costs, and greater
operator control allowing e󰀨ortless
adjustments for better performance.
The Grizzly product has earned a reputation
of uncompromising strength, performance and
reliability.
Each model is designed with inbuilt durability,
and accuracy, E󰀩ciency and easy operation
for sustainable farming practices.
Continued investment into research and
development plays a key role in the success
of the company’s product range
The company has a very successful and
loyal dealer network throughout Australia.
All dealers are backed by Grizzly training,
technical support and rapid delivery parts
replacement anywhere in Australia.

3 The Right Machine
The Grizzly Deep Digger is a heavy duty, fuel
e󰀩cient, deep ripping machine for breaking
up sub-soil hard pans. It is also used for deep
cultivation applications and in conjunction with
Agricultural architects where land forming,
laser levelling and sub-soil ripping is required.
The action of the Deep Digger tine fractures
the structure of the sub-soil so that drainage,
root growth and the process of mineral
osmosis is enhanced. This leads to better
growth and higher crop yields in most
compacted soils. The Deep Digger is also
used to bring small stumps and roots, to
the surface, ie grape vines to prepare for
cultivation or laser levelling. All tasks or
applications are performed with minimal
disturbance to the soil surface.
The Deep Digger features parabolic tines
congured in a “V” formation for ease of
penetration, better traction and greater
implement strength. Tines are constructed
of 350 grade steel plate for excellent wear
resistance. A rounded edge spring steel
wear bar and replaceable point increase the
e󰀨ective action and life of the tine. All tines
are tted with shear pins to prevent damage
to the frame in rough conditions. Tines can
be individually locked up in a non-working
position for narrower working width or wider
tine spacing.
The Grizzly Deep Digger is available in either
linkage models ranging in size from one to
nine tines or We trust the Deep Digger will
play an important part in your farming program
for many years to come.
