ABSTRACT:
A plurality of sand fighter rotor units are mounted to a folding frame upon a tractor. Each rotor unit operates in the furrows between rows of crops in an agricultural field. Each rotor unit has a plurality of inboard spiders mounted on an axle between a pair of bearings, and a plurality of outboard spiders mounted on short collars attached to the axle outside the pair of bearings. The prongs of the outboard spiders are shorter than the prongs of the inboard spiders. The outboard spiders are adjustable so that they may be placed close to the growing crops without coming into direct contact with the plants. Attaching the rotor units to a frame such that individual sections of the frame may be folded so that the distal wings of the frame when folded are substantially parallel to a center section.
