Place the Seed
The seed brush (A) allows you to drop almost any kind of seed and will deliver seed, including grass seed and hard-to-plant seed blends, under varied conditions (Seed brush shown without protective shield. Always operate machine with seed brush shield in place). Adjustable scatter plates (B) allow you to set the angle of dispersion for accurate seed placement, reducing seed cost by placing seed only where you want it.

Step up to the FP1206 to get a second row of S-tines for increased tillage action. Both the FP1206 and FP1208 have 18-inch notched disk blades.
FiniSh the Soil
