2024 Great Plains 3-Point Drills 20 Series Fluted 2520F

2024 Great Plains 3-Point Drills 20 Series Fluted 2520F

With working widths ranging from 12' to 25', a choice of openers, and two different styles of meters, the Great Plains 3-Point Drill line offers producers a variety of options to meet the needs of their operation.

Great Plains offers a complete line of 3-Point Drills with multiple options to satisfy specific farming practices and different equipment needs. These drills are available in working widths from 12' to 25', with a choice of openers and either fluted or precision meters.

The 00 Series opener is ideal for most conditions. It features a full-length seed tube and T-handle depth control adjuster. If more vertical travel is needed, the 10 Series opener offers a parallel linkage system that keeps the opener level throughout its full ten inches of travel. Multiple press wheel combinations are available for either series. The 20 Series openers specialize in narrow row planting in stale seedbeds. Side-depth wheels keep sticky, tight soils from blowing out. These openers also feature T-handles for easy depth adjustments, full-length seed tubes, and a choice of V-shaped closing wheel assemblies.

A choice of meters further customizes these drills to the specific needs of the end user. Fluted feed meters and a 4-speed transmission effectively meter nearly any seed in both fast and slow drilling conditions. Precision drills utilize a Singulator Plus™ meter to successfully singulate many seed types, including soybeans, sorghum, and cotton – and even ultra low-rate rice.

Select 12', 15', and 20' models can be turned from min-till to no-till by adding a Great Plains Center Pivot Hitch (CPH) or Precision Fertilizer Hitch (PFH).

Features may include:

• 00 Series openers feature a proven welded box design, 13.5", 4mm blades mounted on 205 triple-lip sealed bearings, and have a ¼" lead opener blade for easier penetration in tough conditions.

• The 10HD Series is truly a heavy-duty opener with 15" opener blades and a 1/2" lead to penetrate easier. A full-length seed tube and trailing flap ensure the seed is “dead dropped” in the bottom of the trench. Parallel linkage keeps the openers level throughout their ten inches of travel, and multiple press wheel options are available to increase the efficiency of these drills in many soil types. The openers are designed with a lock-up feature to vary row spacing and an 18-position T-handle adjusts the depth.

• The Great Plains 20 Series openers are an excellent choice when planting in stale seedbed environments. Much like a planter row unit, this opener has 2" side-depth wheels for accurate depth control and consistent seed placement. The 20 Series openers are paired with the fluted feed metering (20F) system for accurate seeding rates and are available in specialty row spacings to match bedded fields.

• Ensures speed sensitive seed metering. Frame height is also controlled with these large rib implement tires.

• All openers are staggered 7" for maximum residue flow. You can easily access the openers from the rear of the machine. Hence, no more climbing under the drill to make routine depth adjustments.

• Provide gentle and even delivery of a wide variety of seed sizes and shapes.

• Changing seed rates is quick and effortless with these permanently lubricated, sealed gearboxes. (Available on 00 Series models and 1510)
