Features
SIMPLIFIED FRAME DESIGN
A simplified frame design features redesigned wing toolbars that act as meter air pressure manifolds, eliminating the need for a dedicated air manifold above the toolbar.
NEW WSMT3 CONTROL SYSTEM WITH X35 MONITOR
This new, simplified operator interface features enhanced diagnostic capabilities. The optional Topcon X35 monitor is fully ISO-compatible with all current Great Plains control features unlocked.
NEW 5000 SERIES ROW UNIT
New, shorter closing wheel mounts, available on select row spacings, achieve appropriate seed-to-soil contact and closing accuracy around curves and contours. Alongside the newly-designed meter, the new row unit provides excellent singulation and seed placement for a variety of crops.
IRC, GROUND, OR HYDRAULIC DRIVE
Choose either Individual Row Control (IRC) for consistent in-row seed spacing, even on tight turns; ground drive with a contact drive wheel; or hydraulic drive.
HEMP SEED DISC
New, 5-cell and 30-cell hemp seed disc that meters seed accurately.
BULK DELIVERY
Choose either 82-bu. or 150-bu.(inset) hoppers. 82-bu. hoppers can be equipped with two side tanks for liquid fertilizer. A dual-fan air system with a newly-designed seed pickup system provides advanced seed delivery for many types of seed with various seed treatments.
AIR-PRO® METER WITH OPTIONAL INDIVIDUAL ROW CONTROL (IRC ELECTRIC DRIVE)
The new 5000 Series Air-Pro Meter offers industry-leading singulation with its simple, positive air pressure meter. Optional IRC reduces maintenance by eliminating all chains and shafts, while the individual meter control saves seed through on-demand variable rate and section control. IRC ensures equal seed spacing to maximize field potential, even when navigating curves and field contours. A larger meter seed pool keeps the meter full at higher speeds and provides excellent singulation for a wide variety of crops, including corn, soybeans, peanuts, and more.
ADVANCED AIR DELIVERY SYSTEM
A dual-fan air system with a newly-designed seed pickup system provides advanced seed delivery for many types of seed with various seed treatments, even across uneven terrain.
2-POINT OR HYDRAULIC HITCH
Choose either the 2-point hitch or the hydraulic tongue hitch (inset) for hooking to tractors without 3-point lift arms.
