4 artos Terroir and PiquetPlus poles the innovative generation! True to the motto of artos pole systems: intelligence and efficiency, we placed high value on top-quality workmanship and easy handling while developing the artos Terroir poles and PiquetPlus poles. All Terroir and PiquetPlus poles have outside hooks in intervals of 70 mm arranged along their entire length. The user can attach any of the normal wires and flexi-wires to these hooks. The outside hooks facilitate a smooth and easy fixing and readjusting of the wires. This saves you an enormous amount of time. artos Terroir and PiquetPlus poles are suitable for all types of ground conditions, for straight and sloping land surfaces alike. A reversal of the pole is an option for sloping land surfaces. The pole has a perfectly rounded form and is especially suitable for regions in which hand-picking is the preferred way of harvesting. The profiles and material thicknesses guarantee high stability and strength. The easy handling, stability and workmanship of the Terroir poles make them ideal for deployment in winegrowing, orcharding and fence making. Weʼll gladly send you more information material for orcharding and landscaping work on request please contact us! **T 4

artos C poles the new generation with outside hooks! The new poles of the artos C-series are individually galvanized vineyard poles made of steel with outside hooks.

6 artos C poles the new generation with outside hooks! The new poles of the artos C-series are individually galvanized vineyard poles made of steel with outside hooks. Galvanization of parts guarantees a long lifespan as well as high durability. The newly developed reinforced hooks are the great advantage of artos C poles. They make the work for the winegrower an easy matter and prevent the hooks from being knocked down by any mechanical force. The reinforced outside hooks are blanked at a slanted angle and subsequently straightened out. This forms the basis of four arguments in favour of the artos C pole: The hooks cannot be knocked into the punched hole when harvesting machines are used. A beading in the hooks lends them the greatest possible stability. The wire clicks into the hooks: Any dislocation of the wires is thus impeded. Smooth working with the vine fixing machine. The C pole is manufactured in three crown widths (C40/C50/C60) and in three material thicknesses each (1.6 mm, 1.9 mm and 2.0 mm). The beneficial design of the new profile makes possible a great degree of stability as well as good earth support. Profile widths: C 40 Crown width: 40mm for low trellising and the like C 50 Crown width: 50 mm, versatile for all locations, standard width C 60 Crown width: 60mm for the highest standards of stability and strength More fields of application of the artos C poles include orcharding and fence making. **T 6

10 The artos ECO pole the very latest row pole with inside hooks! The artos ECO poles are individually galvanized vineyard poles made of steel with inside hooks. The poles are galvanized by a hot-dip processing in accordance with DIN EN ISO 1461, so as to ensure protection against corrosion (Pre-galvanized material is also possible). The newly developed hooks are the great advantage of artos ECO poles: They protect against any unintentional dislocations of the wire even on hillsides or steep slopes whilst facilitating easy removal of the wire, for example for the fixing of vines. A better stability of the vineyard poles is achieved for the identical material thickness by dint of the hooks rectangular shape and the low amount of blankings for the inside hooks. By dint of its special shape, it is nearly impossible to knock down or bend the hook. We recommend using vineyard wire of up to max. 2.2 mm for this vineyard pole. The artos ECO pole is produced in four overall widths (ECO 45/ ECO 50 / ECO 55 / ECO 60) and in a material thickness of 1.6 mm. Profile widths: ECO 45 - overall width: 45 mm for low types of trellising and such like ECO 50 - overall width: 50 mm, versatile for all locations ECO 55 - overall width: 55 mm, the all-rounder for the highest standards of stability ECO 60 - overall width: 60 mm, for the highest demands 10

12 artos end poles the stable and market-tested generation! The artos end pole won recognition immediately upon its market launch owing to the numerous benefits it provides for the wine-grower. The special profile of the artos end pole has a superior stability due to its good earth support and broad frontal width. Above an insertion depth of 90 cm and more, the end pole can withstand the highest strains. Years of experience in being fully deployed highest harvesting confirm the pole s stability. The artos end pole is galvanized in parts. There are no cut edges susceptible to rust thus its long lifespan is guaranteed. The DLG (Deutsche Landwirtschaftsgesellschaft, German Agriculture Society) Test Report No corroborates a zinc coating of an average of 87.6 μ. The core of the end pole, and a great innovation, are the eight welded steel rods, providing the pole with a high degree of stability and torsional stiffness. Concurrently, these rods serve as easily usable and stable wire mounting brackets. In conjunction with the usage of chains, you obtain ideal wire positions. For the purpose of reinforcement, cross-bars are welded on in the lower part, which lend the pole particular stability in the ground as well. Moreover, the cross-bars facilitate the smooth attachment of the drop plate. No extra and expensive accessories for fixing the wire are needed. By request of many wine-growers, we offer our tried-and-tested end pole with a supplementary second hook option, in which the hooks (rods) don t exceed the width of the metal profile. The artos end pole is perfectly suited for fixing, too. It can be easily put up, and timeconsuming nailing belongs to the past. In addition, the torsional stiffness makes them ideal for deployment in orcharding. EP 1 EP 2 **T 12

16 Production and workmanship of artos poles artos poles are manufactured at the facility of our producer, Meiser Vogtland OHG, in Oelsnitz, Germany. We can provide our steel poles to you both individually galvanized as well as pre-galvanized. Galvanization of parts: After being manufactured, the poles are degreased and subsequently cleaned in an acid bath so that they exhibit a pure metal surface. After rinsing anew in a water bath, the poles are dipped into a fluxing agent and dried once more. Ultimately, each and every single pole is dipped into a hot zinc bath of approximately 450 degree Celsius (according to DIN EN ISO 1461). In the process, the entire surface of a pole including all raw edges are galvanized. The zinc coating is from 50 μ to 80 μ for an individually galvanized pole. Having been galvanized this way, the surface of the artos poles will defy wind and rain alike for many, many years to come, and they are guaranteed a long lifespan. Pre-galvanized: The continuously galvanized poles are vineyard poles that are manufactured from material that has already been galvanized. Pre-galvanized poles have raw edges that are not galvanized. The zinc coating usually averages 20 μ. These factors result in the poles being more corrodible. Nevertheless, these poles last for one vine generation as well. 16

17 Practical solutions What material thickness is needed? The location of the vineyard has to be considered. Against the backdrop of the climate changes that are already noticeable, resulting in an increase of storms, in some areas with gale-force winds, it is recommended opting for a pole with a stronger material thickness, particularly in locations open to wind. In addition, we recommend setting up the poles closer to one another in those rows facing the wind for such vineyards in locations vulnerable to wind. Likewise, the length of the individual vine row has to be considered when selecting a material thickness especially for the end poles. When comparing the various vineyard poles, we recommend paying close attention not only to length and material thickness but also to the weight. How can I prevent the end pole from sinking into the soil? For solving this problem, we recommend inserting our drop plates, which can be fastened to our artos end pole with a few moves. How do I get the pole into the ground without damaging or deforming its top end? We recommend hydraulic pole pressers. Should the soil be especially stony, the use of a vibrating pole presser is recommended. In addition, we provide for all the poles an impact protection precisely matched for each individual vineyard pole. Our local dealers as well as we ourselves the artos Distributorship are at your disposal should you have any further questions concerning the artos vineyard pole system. 17
