Small Seeds Partition
This partition reduces side-to-side seed flow in the small
seeds box. This can prevent seed pile-up when drilling
across slopes and in other situations where the seed is
particularly fluid. Partitions are sold individually. Order
quantity desired.
Seed Firmers
The standard drill includes seed flaps. A choice of
firmers is an option in the product bundles, or may be
field-installed as kits. Only one type of optional seed
firmer may be installed at the same time. Order one
firmer kit per opener.

Seed Firmer
The optional Keeton
®
seed firmer is an engineered
polymer shape that slides down the seed trench. It traps
seeds as they exit the seed tube and firms them into the
bottom of the furrow. Order one per row.

seed firmer supports low-rate fertilizer
delivery. For this use, a liquid fertilizer system must also
be installed on the tractor

Seed-Lok
®
Seed Firmer
The spring-loaded Seed-Lok
®
firming wheel presses
seed directly into the bottom of the seed bed. The

option provides more even emergence since
seeds are planted and firmed at the same depth.
Seed-Lok
®
can be used on all configurations except
Native Grass, unless the Native Grass seed tube is
removed during Seed-Lok
®
use.
