Solitair 8 The pneumatic seed drill for medium-sized farms
The Solitair 8 is optimally configured for medium-sized farms that want accurate pneumatic drills for conventional and conservation tillage at low cost. With working widths of 3, 3,5 and 4 metres, it can be combined with a variety of powered and non-powered tillage implements making it extremely versatile.
The metering system is mechanically driven by a maintenance-free cardan shaft and a continuously variable gearbox. This provides smooth movement of the cell wheels in the metering unit and guarantees accurate seed distribution in the row.
The seed hopper has a capacity of up to 1,850 litres, a forward position of centre of gravity, and a large opening for easy filling.
The continuously variable hydraulic fan provides a constant air flow for seed delivery with uniform metering and drilling.
The standard Easytronic electronic control system makes it easy to insert tramlines and monitor hectare performance.
