6000 Series Air Seeders ~ New Features & Advancements


PDM Plus ~ Positive Displacement Metering System
PDM+ Metering System A precise, finely pitched auger pulls seed from a large, flow-through sump and pushes it through a metering orifice.
The pitch of the auger then abruptly increases as the seed is carried to the product transfer line. This system is highly accurate, even with fine seeds. The sump can be opened for complete tank clean-out and metering auger inspection.
Hydraulic Calibration
Power Hydraulic Calibration System
Install the calibration boxes underneath one or more of the calibration ports and turn on the hydraulic motor to obtain a sample. The speed and ease of calibration allows you to obtain a larger, more accurate sample.


Variable Speed Transmissions Cab Rate Adjust - CRA & Zone Rate Control - ZRC
Variable Speed Transmissions The output rate is adjusted by turning the crank at the top of the transmission case.
Electric Transmission Actuator

Optional Cab Rate Adjust - CRA
The metering rate can be adjusted for each metering auger, on-the-go, from the tractor cab. An electric actuator mounted on each transmission will remotely change the metering rate. A control panel is also located on the tank for convenient rate changes during calibration.

Optional Zone Rate Control - ZRC
Zone Rate Control allows for all metering augers in operation to be adjusted at the same ratio by a single control. Five different zones can be programmed by the operator, and adjusted on-the-go for simple yet precise rate changes. An electric actuator mounted on each transmission will remotely change the metering rate.

On-the-go rate adjustment is also available in two variations:
CRA - Cab Rate Adjust for independent control of each metering auger
ZRC - Zone Rate Control for programmed rate zones which applies the same rate change by ratio to all the augers as a group.
Product Lift System Other Features & Options

Product Lift System

A revolutionary new feature for the 6000 Series Air Seeder is the hydraulic powered Seed Bag Lift System. You no longer have to endanger your safety by lugging heavy seed bags up the tank stairs. The lift system is rated for a 250 lbs (113 kgs) load, or about five 55 lb seed bags, from the ground to the top of the tank.
Caution: This feature is not intended for the elevation of anything except seed bags.
