7 ft., 9 ft., & 11 ft. widths | Provides high productivity over wide areas on flat or gently sloping terrain. |
Machine weight | Heavier unit weight provides for better spike penetration and seed-to-soil contact. |
Lift hooks | Lift hooks on end of grass seedbox can be used with spreader bar for easy loading and unloading of the machine. |
Large seedbox capacity | Keeps filling to a minimum and increases productivity. |
Water-tight seedbox | Keeps moisture and rodents out of the seedbox. |
Easy seedbox clean-out | Simply moving the flute lever to the proper position allows for easy clean-out and removal of all of the seeds in the seedbox. |
Heavy duty seedbox lids | Precision fit to keep water and rodents out and HD construction with integral prop support keeps lid from slamming shut in windy conditions. |
Seed splash guards | Prevents seed from being spilled out between the lid and seedbox during hopper filling. |
Wind guarded seed drops | Protects seed from blowing away and ensures uniform seed distribution across the full width of the seeder. |
Grass seed cups | Proven fluted seed cups for highly accurate seed delivery. |
Grass seed agitator | Prevents bridging and keeps seed flowing evenly to grass seed cups. |
Native seed agitator | Aggressive paddle style agitator to keep fluffy native grass from bridging. |
Powdered metal in fluted sprockets | Helps dissipate any heat buildup from fluted area and plastic seed cup housing. |
Seed rate charts on underside of seedbox lids | Conveniently positioned as large durable decal under the seedbox lids for handy calibration reference. |
Easy seed rate adjustment on grass and native seedbox | Proper seed rate adjustment lever positioning is conveniently indicated on the seed rates chart for ease of setting and adjustment with a high level of confidence. |
#40 Roller chain drive | Provides for smooth and quiet running with a high degree of reliability. Adjustable idlers and slotted take-ups help keep the drive chains allow for chain take-up. |
Three speed transmission for the grass seedbox | A simple and easy repositioning of the drive gear allows for three drive speeds (high, low, and low reduction) and one neutral position for locking out the grass seeds drive. |
