NO-TILL GRAIN DRILL
For Heavy Stubble and Hard Soils
The new Lilliston 9680 No-Till Grain Drill will
operate in maximum severe conditions, where
uniform penetration of heavy stubble and’hard
soils is required. Unlike some of the so-called
"no-till" drills available today, which are actually
conventional drills with front coulters added, the
Lilliston is designed, from the ground up, for one
purpose: No-till seeding.
Some Special Features
Maximum empty weight of 7,160 lbs. transfers 390 lbs. of down
pressure to each of the 18 openers on 7 inch spacings.
Heavy duty 14 inch cutting coulters and double disc openers,
spring-loaded scrapers and center rib gauge wheels.
Three hydraulic cylinders regulate pressure on openers for
precision depth control.
Patented double-chambered feed cups which maintain even
seed flow to the feed wheels.
O Cluster gear boxes (or easy selection of 27 application speeds
of seed and fertilizer.
