Product Description
7' End Wheel No-Till Compact Drill
The Great Plains 7' End Wheel No-Till Drill (706NT) offers the perfect balance between smaller drill versatility and larger drill productivity. This unit is at home seeding in a wide variety of applications, from pasture renovation to mine reclamation.
Designed for excellent ground gauging in rugged terrain, the drill’s inline end wheels minimize sideloading on contours and side-hills, dramatically extending the life of the no-till openers.
The 706NT comes standard with a 17-bushel main seed box. A small seeds box can be added, along with either a native grass box, a fertilizer box, or a second seed box. The drill’s other features include 4-speed gearbox(es), mechanical clutch for end-row turns, a calibration crank, central grease bank, and rain-tight lids for maximum seed and fertilizer protection. |

Lead Coulter Options
Choose between a wide 3/4" wavy coulter, a 5/8" Turbo coulter blade that is aggressive and prepares a mini seedbed ahead of the opener, or a 5/16" fluted coulter blade that penetrates easily to perform minimum tillage. |

Large end wheels stay on side hills and maintain accurate seed placement in undulating terrain. Lockout hubs save drive components from wear. |

06 Series Opener
The 06 Series row unit utilizes the “Fluff and Plant” no-till system with an integrally-mounted coulter to cut residue and prepare a mini seedbed for the trailing double-disc opener. The opener discs are 13.5" in diameter and 4mm thick with 205 triple-lip sealed bearings, and ¼" opener disc lead. Our unique full-length seed tube design and trailing flap control the seed all the way to the bottom of the seed trench where the seed stays in place. |
