Description of Unit
The unique design of the Double Seeder Hitch allows for
pulling any combination of 8’,10’, or 12’ pull-type seeders
in tandem to expand the seeding width up to a maximum
of 24 feet. The over-the-top design maintains a transport
width only as wide as the widest seeder. The center flex
pivot and wide range of adjustments lets each seeder
follow the soil’s natural contours for consistent seeder
operation. The Double Seeder Hitch incorporates low
profile flotation tires on the front frame and a caster
wheel and tire on the rear frame to keep wheel tracks in
the field to a minimum. The rear tongue utilizes an
adjustable hitch plate for easy hook-ups.
