The field-proven 24' and 30' Pull-Type Drills from Great Plains are designed and built to handle the toughest no-till conditions. Featuring the Great Plains 10 Series opener and coulter combination, these two-section drills precisely place seed in the bottom of the seed trench for maximum emergence.
Features
Coulter-assisted opener systemThis system splits no-till seeding into two operations: penetration and seed placement. Preloaded at 450 lbs., coulters get the job done by working at the desired depth, ensuring optimum seed placement for a uniform stand. Increase coulter depth to penetrate hard, dry soils, or reduce coulter depth in soft conditions. This allows the 10 Series parallel linkage double-disc openers to properly place the seed. Seeding depth is set by the 18-position T-handle at the rear of the opener.
Features
Point-row clutchesShuts off drill sections for point-row seeding.
Features
User-friendly fold systemFold and unfold electro-hydraulically from the tractor seat! Calibrate easily and accurately with the 4-speed gearbox and adjustable powdered metal flutes, which are gentle, yet tough enough to stand up to abrasive seeds. Conveniently grease hard-to-reach coulter pivots with grease banks on each wing to eliminate premature wear.
