As grain growers adopt alternative farming practices it is important they retain a flexible position with their machinery. John Shearer has met this need with our versatile range of 4 and 6 row direct drills.
ESSENTIALS:
-Large under-frame clearance for maximum trash flow
-Adaptable for split seed/fertilizer distribution – Double cups optional
-Renowned 620 tyne assemblies – Greater than 113kg (250lb) breakout
-Fluted rollers – Suitable for a wide variety of seed types
-Large wheel equipment – For excellent flotation
-Big capacity grain and fertilizer boxes – Less stops between refills
-Full level lift system – excellent depth control
-Easy to calibrate wide range gearbox
-Remote greasing for grain and fertilizer shaft bearings
-Gas struts on lid
Numerous configurations are available for the operator to direct drill, adopt summer cropping sowing practices, carry out conventional seeding or somewhere in between with min-til or trashfarming. The addition of cultivating tynes enables a quick and easy conversion from min-til to trash farming or conventional seeding.
In the Shearer tradition the direct drills are robust and heavily constructed in the areas that count and built to last. The result is less down time, for a more efficient and cost effective operation.
SIMPLE CALIBRATION
All models feature electronic scales for easy sowing rate calibration.
ELECTRIC DRIVE OPTION
An electric drive option is available to facilitate alteration of sowing rates from the tractor seat.
