Ground
Zero...
...Where the seed meets
the soil
Uniform
planting depth gives you the most consistent seedling
emergence, getting your crop off to a good start under
most site conditions.
- Seed
from all boxes is delivered between the double disc
openers. The rolling disc opener carries the seed
into the soil for proper placement and optimal seed-to-soil
contact.
- A
guard in front of the disc openers reduces plugging
problems.
- Truax
EZ-Off Depth Bands on every disc control planting
depth. Four sizes are available to accommodate planting
depths of different crops.
| Scrapers
on the disc openers and the depth bands prevent
moist soil from building up, compromising planting
depth and seed placement.
Scrapers
are located:
- On
the outside surface of the discs.
- Inside
between the double discs.
- On
the face of the depth band.

units. Press wheel frame provides clearance to pass

FLEXII Series Grass Drills With Dual Rear Transport
Wheels
 |
The
Truax Rear Transport Wheels are the answer for
moving wider drills on narrow roadways, especially
when meeting oncoming traffic. The dual wheels
remain on the road surface while the end of
the drill hangs over the shoulder and ditch.
Narrow,
crowned road centers are no linger a challenge
with the 12 - 14 inches of ground clearance.
|
| This
feature can also be a real advantage when crossing
swales, ditch bottoms, and traveling field roads. |
| After
obtaining necessary travel permits and when other
conditions apply, the drill equipped with Dual
Rear Transport Wheels are easy to load on trailers
with the transport wheels rolling up trailer ramps. |

extra ground clearance when the Drill is in the transport
position.

Drills can be achieved with optional rear transport
wheels.
