Description of Unit
The 3P605NT and 3P606NT are 3-point seeding
implements. The 605NT and 606NT are towed seeding
implements. This drill has a working width of 7.5 feet
(1.9 m). The drill has straight arm, double disc 05 or
06 Series openers. The opener discs make a seed bed,
and seed tubes mounted between the discs place seed
in the furrow. Press wheels following the opener discs
close the furrow and gauge opener seeding depth.
A T-handle on the opener body makes seeding depth
adjustments.
The metering system is driven from the gauge wheel
(3-point), or from the left end wheel (pull-type). Seeding
rates are set by rate adjustment handles and a Drive
Type gearbox for the main seed box.
Intended Usage
Use this implement to seed production-agriculture crops
in conventional or minimum tillage applications.
