Features
Max-Mix™ Shank Pattern
On an effective 7" spacing, the Max-Mix shank pattern creates the perfect seedbed by eliminating weeds and uniformly mixing soil, residue, and fertilizer (if applying) for even distribution.
Large-Capacity Cart
The Cultivator Air Drill implement couples to a 350 bu., 2-bin cart for reliable, uniform delivery of seed and fertilizer to the implement.
HYDRAULIC WEIGHT TRANSFER
Hydraulically transfers the weight from the center section of the machine to the wings for even seeding depth across the entire drill.
FLOATING HITCH
The single-pole floating hitch allows enhanced flexibility for consistent cultivation, regardless of terrain. It also permits tighter turns without interference with the tractor.
FINISHING REEL
Following the sweeps, a 12" finishing reel firms the soil ahead of the openers to create an excellent seedbed.
COMBINE TILLAGE AND SEEDING
This highly-productive implement combines tillage and seeding to reduce time, fuel, and tractor depreciation hours.
CHOOSE YOUR SHANK & SWEEPS
The heavy-duty K-flex shank has 185 lbs. of point trip force. The spring-loaded magnum shank has 205 lbs. of point trip force. Both shank styles are available in minimum draft or flat lower shanks. Sweeps are 11" wings with hard surfacing.
00 SERIES OPENER
Proven, reliable Great Plains 00 Series openers provide perfect seed-to-soil contact and quick, uniform emergence by precisely placing seed in moist, freshly-tilled soil.
