Description of the
Seed Box Agitator
The Seed Box Agitator is an option which can be
ordered to fit on the 706/1006 Great Plains drill.
The Seed Box Agitator is designed to stir the seed
directly above the metering cups. It is intended to cut
down on the "bridging" of light fluffy seeds, and help to
separate individual soybeans that become sticky from
inoculant. The Seed Box Agitator will not guarantee
consistent seeding of hard to meter seeds such as
Brome Grass or "bin run" seed that contains crop
residue.
!
DANGER!
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if
not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. This
signal word is limited to the most extreme situations.
