Story:
Potato diggers appeared in the mid to late 19th century.
They represented a first step in the mechanization of potato cultivation and were initially in the form of so-called centrifugal harvesters.
Another technical form of harvesting potatoes in the early days was the potato digger, a special plow for harvesting potatoes, which raised the planted ridge to bring the potatoes to the surface.

About the picture:
LANZ LK 20 centrifugal harvester with wheel drive.
The lifting share, which can be adjusted in height and inclination, is attached eccentrically;
Spinning star with 8 (LK 30: 10) tine groups made of spring steel.
For driving on paved paths, the grippers are protected with a treadle.
A cone-shaped collecting basket running parallel was available as an attachment, which screened the soil and deposited the potatoes in a row.
