5200 seed cups feature a fluted feed design. Large flutes allow slower shaft speeds resulting in greater seeding accuracy and gentle seed handling. An adjustable seed gate assures smooth seed flow with large or small seeds controlled by a seed rate adjustment knob on the end of the drill. Smooth plastic seed tubes prevent seed from bunching compared to corrugated rubber seed tubes.

PRO openers feature a 4” x 12” chevron tread depth gauge wheel or a 3” x 14” crowned depth gauge wheel on no-till drills. The PRO opener design accurately controls seeding depth while resisting plugging. The 13 ½“double disc openers with a 5/8” staggered leading edge cut through residue with ease, ensuring a consistent seed trench.

HD PRO openers utilize a 3” x 14” crowned depth gauge wheel and one 16” notched and one 13 ½” disc for the opener with a 2 ½” staggered leading edge to enable excellent penetration in heavy residue conditions. The HR PRO system has 50% fewer pivot points compared to parallel link style openers while maintaining more accurate depth control.

Seeding rates are easily adjusted by pulling the idler lever and sliding sprockets to the desired setting applying form as little as a few to over 300 pounds per acre.

Cut through thick residue mats with ease on the 5200NT drill by hydraulically transferring up to 3000 pounds of down pressure to the no-till coulters for added penetration in extreme conditions.

The dry fertilizer option on 5200 folding and 5200NT models with PRO openers includes a stainless steel tank floor and a 60% grain, 40% fertilizer split. The fertilizer cups are made of the same non-corrosive material as the seed cups providing years of trouble-free operation.

A legume or small seed box is available to enable seeding of multiple crops at the same time, reducing passes across the field and enabling the use of cover crops.
