Introduction

The Great Plains 3P1006NT drill is a two-point
mounted no-till drill with lift-assist wheels for
operation and transport.

The standard 3P1006NT model has a main seed
box. A second seed box (dual seed), fertilizer, native
grass, and/or small seed capability may be added.

Intended Use Statement

The 3P1006NT drill with standard equipment and/or
authorized attachments and options is intended to be
used as a seeding implement when operated
according to instructions and safety precautions in
this manual, machine decals, or other information
provided with the machine.

Use this drill to seed grasses or production-
agriculture crops, or to seed over existing grass
stands. Use on terrain that is flat to semi-flat or gently
rolling.

Any other use, for example, using the machine as a
grader or cultivator tool, is not permitted. The
manufacturer and dealers are not liable for damage
caused by improper use.

The straight arm, double-disk openers disks make a
seed bed. Seed tubes mounted between the disks
place seed in the furrow. Press wheels following the
opener disks close the furrow and gauge the opener
seeding depth.

The seed metering system is driven from one or both
front gauge wheels. Seeding rates are set by a
gearbox, rate adjustment handles, and/or sprocket
selection.

Right-hand and left-hand side are determined by
facing the direction of forward travel.

Prohibited Use

Do not use this machine for any purpose or in any
way other than what is described in this manual,
machine decals, or any other information provided
with the machine. These materials define the
intended use of the machine.

Unauthorized modifications to the machine will
relieve the manufacturer of all liability for any
resulting injury or damage.

CE Identification

The CE identification is located on the right-hand
side of the left gauge wheel.

Your machine’s parts were specially designed and
should only be replaced with Great Plains parts.
