1.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
The Seed Hawk
tank is a single axle tank which is available as a tow between or a
tow behind except the 800 tank which is only available in the tow behind configuration.
The 400 tank is a 400 bushel, two compartment tank with a 60/40 split. The 500, 600
and 800 bushel tanks have three compartments and a standard two fan configuration.
The meters are designed to utilize each compartment for high efficiency by being able
to divert the product into either the seed or fertilizer air stream. A single roller is in
each meter which is capable of accurately dispensing low amounts of canola as well
as high rates of fertilizer. A Vaderstad infinitely adjustable gearbox is also on every
meter which allows the grower to accommodate such rates of canola and fertilizer.
