 Highlights
Precision Disk 500 Air Drill Highlights
  • Tow-between or tow-behind configurations
  • Split front and rear ranks to allow single rank seeding
  • Easily folds for transportability
  • In-Cab down pressure control

 

 Transport & Flotation

Transport

  • The vertical fold design allows for lowest transport height in the industry as well as narrow transport widths
  • The 25 ft & 30 ft Precision Disk Drills also utilize a wing lock for safe transport
  • To fold or unfold the tool, a single remote lever in the tractor is used
  • While transporting or pulling in/out of a field, the ground clearance of the openers is 8.5 in
  • The wide profile of the transport wheels provide the stability to move the disk drill confidently, even at higher roading speeds
  • Maximum transport speed should not exceed 20 mph
Standard Flotation
  • Stubble resistant tires at all locations
  • 12 total wheels
  • Front of mainframe- 12/5L x 15 dual on castoring rigid axles
  • Front and rear of each wing --12.5L x 15 single wheel (front on caster)
  • Rear of mainframe--18L x 16.1 dual wheels on rigid axles

High Flotation

  • Stubble resistant tires at all locations
  • 16 total wheels
  • Front of mainframe--12.5L x 15 dual on castoring walking tandem axles
  • Front and rear of each wing--12.5L x 15 duals on walking beam axles (front on castor)
  • Rear of mainframe 18L x 16.1 dual wheels on walking beam axles
 Tow-Behind or Tow-Between, It's Up to You
Front Hitch
  • The front pull hitch is a floating style hitch
  • Allows the disk drill to float up and down, independently from the tractor and hitch
  • Improves ground following and seed depth control because the hitch will not raise or lower the front of the tool when the tractor rides over a hill or an obstacle

Rear Hitch

  • A rear hitch is available to hook up any tow-behind air cart
  • The rear hitch is designed to ensure a tight implement turning radius and follow the tracks created by the tractor during transport
  • Provides enough room to allow the drill frame to be folded into the transport position without disconnecting the air system
  • A rear hitch package is available to provide the needed hydraulic and eletronic power to the Tow-Behind air cart
  • Lights and ISOBUS connection

Hitch Clevis

  • A strong cast Cat IV clevis
  • For secure hitching, this type of hitch requires a 2" hitch pin​​

Rear Hitch Caddy

  • When utilizing a Tow-Between air cart a convenient rear hitch can also be added to the drill to tow other caddies

 

 Seed Distribution

More Accurate Seed Placement

Better stands. Better yields. Producers will achieve best-in-class emergence in a wide variety of soils and residues. Case IH Precision Disk 500 Air Drills offer the most accurate seed placement available.

Air Packages

  • Standard Air Package
  • Ideal for almost every crop and fertilizer type.
  • The primary and secondary runs feature UV resistant flexible PVC with a steel header and EZ-Flow manifold.
  • Extended Wear Package
  • Ideal for highly abrasive crops like rice.
  • The primary run features 2.5 in diameter flexible PVC hoses, each with a Urethane Liner that resists wear and extends the life of the hose.
  • The secondary run is UV resistant 1 in flexible PVC hose
Flow Monitoring Optical Sensors
  • Optional optical sensors monitor the product flow through the delivery system. 
  • Quickly alert product flow concerns for quick resolution
  • Reduces skips
  • Ensures higher yields
  • When an obstruction is detected, the operator will hear an audible alarm in the cab and the blocked run will be displayed on the console
  • These sensors provide non-contact monitoring as either primary or secondary run systems for single-shoot configurations

Split Rank Seeding

  • Row unit lock up offers the ability to easily split the front and rear ranks to allow seeding with only the front or only the rear rank.
  • Raising the ranks, then rotating either the upper (front rank) or lower (rear rank) pair of valves will prevent the rank from lowering.
  • Rank Lock-up pins whould also be inserted.
  • Stopping the seed is also required for split rank operation, a header insert kit shold be ordered to stop seed flow to the split tank.

Header Stand Primary Distribution

  • Standard Wear Air Package
  • The patented dimpling in the header stand allows for randomized air flow and creates even seed distribution to the EZ Flow header
  • The dimpling pattern eliminates overloading of seed to one side of the header stand
  • Extended Wear Air Package
  • Includes a high wear header that prevents areas with high amounts of seed contact from wearing out
  • The header includes a reinforced area at the elbow as well as reinforced dimples to prevent the header from wearing out prematurely

Manifold

  • EZ Flow Header is deigned for easy serviceability and accurate product distribution.
  • A replaceable steel tip on the insert reduces abration effect and prolongs life.
  • Quick access to inspect riser tube and manifold ports.
