Features
Spiked rollers for perfect seed-to-soil contact
The CS Series Seeders are ground driven with the front rollers aggressively turning the back roller 40 percent faster. This allows the operator to more accurately control the ground speed at which they travel.
Frontier™ conservation seeders gently till the ground and create the perfect seedbed for new seeding jobs, while also allowing the operator to seed into existing grass and pasture.
Rear cultipacker firms and smoothes seedbed
Rear cultipacker rings compact and level the seedbed, ensuring good seed-to-soil contact. They are available in two choices:
- Corrugated reinforced nylon
- Cast iron
An exclusive torque arm helps maintain a constant adjustable down pressure on the rear of the cultipacker.
Multiple seedbox configurations
Available in multiple options, the CS Series seedboxes can be ordered to best suit the producer's requirements. Up to four configurations are available:
- Standard large-grain box
- Native grass box
- Small-seed legume box
- Fertilizer box
Seedboxes can also be disengaged to perform soil aeration and dethatching.
Field-installed stainless-steel fertilizer box kits, with extended chain guards, are available for the CS1360 and CS1384 Conservation Seeders.
The small seedbox allows operators to sow grasses, alfalfa, canola, and other small seed, while providing an accurate and dependable fluted force feed.
A second large seed box, with an extended chain guard, provides more capacity and the option to plant two different kinds of seed at once.
An optional native grass seedbox kit, with an extended chain guard, consists of a paddle agitator and picker wheels for consistent seed rates.
Rear cultipacker scraper kits for nylon and cast-iron wheels are designed to scour/remove soil and residue from the rear cultipacker rings.
