The Restorer ALD-S comes as a Standard (S) or Heavy Duty (H) variant. The S model works at 125-300 mm and the H model at 125-400 mm, with the extra depth requiring optional LDS legs on the H model. Depth is set without tools using frame-mounted wheels and adjustable legs.

Yes, the Restorer ALD-S can run front mounted with a rear-mounted cultivator, drill or combination. It can also be rear mounted as a stand-alone machine with an optional rear packer and seeding equipment, or rear mounted with an optional hydraulic drawbar for towing cultivators or drills in a single pass.

A low disturbance subsoiler relieves compaction below the surface without inverting the soil or leaving a rough finish. On Ryetec Restorer machines, a large cutting disc slices the surface ahead of each low disturbance point, so the pan is fractured to improve drainage and rooting while surface disturbance is kept to a minimum.

Choose the Restorer ALD-S for a versatile 3–8 m toolbar that works front or rear mounted with a drill or cultivator; the ALD-E as a stand-alone arable subsoiler with packer; the PHT to run close-coupled ahead of a PTO power harrow; the Track Eradicator to target wheelings; the GLD for grassland; or the Riot for one-pass subsoiling, mixing and consolidation.

Shearbolt or shearbar protection is the simpler option: a bolt shears when a leg hits an obstruction and is replaced before carrying on. Auto reset lets the leg ride over the obstruction and return to work automatically, which saves downtime on stony ground. Most Ryetec Restorer models offer both; which one is standard depends on the model and working width.
