Description of Unit
The ADC1150 is a grain-drill cart that uses air to move
seed or fertilizer from the cart to the implement. Air is sup-
plied by a fan driven by a hydraulic motor. A pressurized
meter under the bin dispenses material into the air stream
at a rate proportional to distance traveled. The meter rate
can be adjusted.
Intended Usage
Use this cart with a Great Plains air drill implement. Use
the cart for seeding small grains and legumes or applying
dry, granular fertilizer.
