Description of Unit
The 3S-3000/F/HD/HDF is a towed seeding implement.
This two-section drill has a working width of 26 feet and
folds to a transport width of 15 feet. The drill has
straight-arm, double-disk openers. The 3S-3000HD
models feature double disk heavy duty openers. The

between the disks place seed in the furrow. Press wheels
following the opener disks close the furrow and gauge
opener seeding depth.
Intended Usage

in conventional or minimum tillage applications. Do not
