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.
