Air Hoe Drills

BIG IN THE FIELD COMPACT IN TRANSPORT

The P2060 air hoe drill delivers simple, precise seed placement in 60’ & 70’ widths for increased productivity. Transports & storage are easier than ever with the innovative fold-back design.

MULTIPLE CONFIGURATIONS FOR ADDED FLEXIBILITY

The P2060 features configuration choices to match your seeding style, including conventional C-shanks and vertical edge-on shanks to reduce soil disturbance and provide better cutting through heavy surface residue. For tough conditions and double-shoot operations, 350-pound standard trips or 550-pound trips are available.

OPENERS TO MATCH CONDITIONS

A wide array of Stealth™ openers for single-shoot, double-shoot, side-band, paired row options are available for the P2050 and P2060 air hoe drills to let you place seed and fertilizer precisely where you choose.

SINGLE-SHOOT

New Holland Stealth™ openers use replaceable tips that work for both narrow-row and spread-row seeding styles. C shank and edge-on shank openers available.

Knife Tips
• Low soil disturbance
• Very narrow spread of 7/8 to one inch
• For use with any press wheel
• Heavy-duty, gumbo or carbide tips match soil conditions

Spread Tips
• Designed for low-disturbance seeding
• Wider product spread allows more fertilizer to be placed with the seed
• Spread tips are available in three-, four- or five- inch sizes
• For use with press wheels that match row widths

DOUBLE-SHOOT

Stealth™ double-shoot attachments allow one-pass placement of seed and fertilizer. Seed/fertilizer separation prevents seedling damage. C shank and edge-on shank openers available.

Side Band
• Places seed one inch above and one inch beside the fertilizer
• Wing forces soil over the fertilizer trench to provide separation from seed
• Can be used with all press wheels
• Available in standard or long-life carbide

Paired Row
• Seed is placed one inch above and one to two-and-a-half inches to both sides of the fertilizer
• Three inch available in HS format for heavy soils and gumbo, and in LS format for light soils and sandy loam
• Three-, four- and five-inch available in carbide for extended wear to maintain integrity of seed bed
• Designed to force soil over the fertilizer trench to provide separation from the seed
• For use with press wheels that match row widths

PRECISE SINGLE POINT DEPTH CONTROL

Single-point depth setting located on the front of the air drill hitch provides simple, exact, repeatable seed depth control across the entire width of the machine. This adjustment allows the operator to quickly and conveniently set precise seeding depths to match a wide range of crops and soil and moisture conditions.

SUPERIOR GROUND FOLLOWING

The P2060 model includes a flexible frame non-slab that allows each wing and press wheel to follow the contours of the ground independently. The superior ground following capabilities enhances seed placement and accuracy. This flexible design also minimizes frame stress for more durability than traditional welded joints.

CONSISTENT SEED AND FERTILIZER PLACEMENT

Left to right the P2060 features five independent frame sections. A patented two paired-rank frame design delivers precise depth accuracy from the front to the rear of the machine. The front two ranks follow the terrain at a depth set by the nearby caster assemblies, and the rear two ranks follow the ground on which the press wheels run. In addition all tires and packer gangs provide equal weight distribution across the entire width of the drill.

PATENTED ADJUSTABLE PACKING SYSTEM

The exclusive variable packing pressure system raises the bar and allows the operator to tailor packing pressure from field to field for greater efficiency. This is versatility allows for accurate fine tuning in variable soil moisture conditions and for small seeded crops such as canola.

CUSTOMIZED OPENERS AND CLOSING OPTIONS

A wide array of Stealth™ openers for single-shoot, double-shoot, side-band and paired rows let you place seed and fertilizer precisely where you choose. Customized soil closing options include single-bar, heavy harrow or disc levelers.

WIDE CHOICE OF PACKER WHEEL OPTIONS

Multiple packing choices include gang style press wheels in semi-pneumatic, steel or walking beam pneumatic.

SEMI-PNEUMATIC PRESS WHEELS

Rubber press wheels flex to shed soil build-up in heavy, sticky soil conditions. The flatter profile rides over a wider area for less packing pressure—just right for soils where too much packing can be a problem or to accomplish a smoother finish. 3-inch semi-pneumatic press wheels can be used with knife openers or when spreading seed up to three inches. It also works for narrow double-shoot 4-inch rubber press wheels are effective for many applications where seed is spread up to 4 inches. 5-1/2 inch semi-pneumatic press wheels offer on-row packing in wide seed spread applications.

STEEL PRESS WHEELS

Steel press wheels are used in more abrasive sandy and rocky conditions. AV-profile concentrates packing pressure onto a smaller area for higher pressure over the seed. The shape of the furrow also provides protection from wind and water erosion. 3-1/2 inch steel press wheels work well with openers that spread seed up to 3-1/2 inches, or with narrow double-shoot openers. The soil profile is a wide V-shape. 4-1/2 inch steel press wheels spread the packing pressure over a wider area for use when spreading seed or for wide doubleshoot applications. The soil profile is the flattest of the steel wheels.

PNEUMATIC PRESS WHEELS (P2060 Only)

The walking beam, pneumatic wheel packing option is available on the P2060. The pneumatic tire pressure can be adjusted which provides additional flexibility to accommodate various soil and moisture conditions. The two tire style options available are 5.9” round face or 6.5” flat face depending on the type of soil and field finish desired.
