Specifications as standard - it's an 8m drill with bolt on extensions to 9m so can be run as 8 or 9m - power requirement of circa 200hp
•
RDS Artemis control system capable of variable seed rate on the move, with sensors on fan, metering devices, and low hopper level sensors.
•
Radar speed sensor
•
2x electric motor to drive both metering units
•
4 x metering units
•
8 Return to Tank Tramliners
•
4t hopper split for seed and fert
•
Blockage Monitor – Digitroll
The drill striped and rebuilt to as new condition by Dale in June 2013, it has since covered 500ac of work and is still in condition as delivered
Work carried out included
1. Scrap existing drill chassis and supply new including 4 hydraulic rams for wing folding. Existing axle, 710 Michelin tyres and wheels to be fitted to new chassis. 2. Strip down existing hopper. Put electronics in protective cabinet. Position fan high up to avoid potential collisions with loader. Make adjustments to fixing points to ensure hopper can be mounted to new chassis. Add protective boxes to both electric motors. Attach mounting brackets to platform for Stock Applicator. Shot blast and complete Re-spray / new decals .3. Re-use existing metering units, distribution heads, vertical seed pipes etc, replacing where damaged or faulty.4. Re-use blockage monitor and air/seed pipes, replacing any that are damaged/excessively worn5. Re-use Hydraulic pipe work, replacing where excessively worn etc. adding additional pipe work for new wing folding rams.6. Adjust all lift/lower hydraulic rams to fit new type headstock (fit clevis to rod end, drill out hole in cylinder end)7. Replace all existing parallel bars with new type (folded as on 6m hire drill)8. Go through tine assemblies replacing excessively worn tines & coulters9. Go through Guttler Wheels checking bearings and replacing where damaged.10. Replace all Nylatron wear bushes (at ends of Parallel bars) and check all Connexbushes (in headstocks and A Frames) and replace where necessary.
It's a good drill and has established good wheat and osr crops this year for us, I'm selling simply because I don't think I need it as well as our 750a through a few tweeks to rotation etc
£55,000 which is a saving of £40k for a drill of this size and spec
