Description of Unit
The 2S-2600/F/HD/HDF is a towed seeding implement.
This two-section drill has a working width of 26 feet and
folds to a transport width of 15 feet. The drill has
straight-arm, double-disk openers. The 2S-2600HD
models feature double disk heavy duty openers. The
opener disks make a seed bed, and seed tubes mounted
between the disks place seed in the furrow. Press
wheels following the opener disks close the furrow and
gauge opener seeding depth.
The 2S-2600/F/HD/HDF features active hydraulic down
pressure on the opener frames. When used on a tractor
with closed-center hydraulics, constant down pressure
ensures even opener penetration in uneven ground.
Hydraulic down pressure is adjustable at a single point.
The 2S-2600F and 2S-2600HDF allow you to drill seed
and apply fertilizer in the same field pass. Dividers
partition the drill boxes into seed and fertilizer
compartments. The openers apply dry fertilizer to the
seed trench before the furrow is closed. You also can use
both compartments for seed.
Intended Usage
Use this implement to seed production-agriculture crops
in conventional or minimum tillage applications. Do not
modify the drill for use with attachments other than Great
Plains options and accessories specified for use with the
2S-2600 Drill.
