LEMKEN’s Solitair front hopper meets with the growing demand for efficient front-rear seeding combinations. With a 2,400-litre capacity for seed and/or fertiliser, the pressure-resistant hopper suits precision seeding or drilling, thus ensuring maximum utilisation in the field.
Seed or fertiliser is delivered to the rear combination units, either to the right or optionally underneath the tractor. The front hopper is equipped with four modular dosing units with individual electric drives. If the Solitair F is used as a single hopper, it can optionally be combined with four width sections, for example with the Azurit precision seed drill for under-root fertilisation or with the OptiDisc 25 coulter bar.
The new optimised OptiDisc coulter bar can now be used for single or double shot drilling, so when used in combination with the Solitair F double hopper, two components can be applied at the same time.
To achieve optimum soil contact, the Solitair F is additionally equipped with a front mounting section for attaching a large tyre packer or an external weight of up to 800 kg. The optimal weight distribution of the front-rear combination ensures greater safety and a more comfortable ride.
The steerable trailed tyre packer can also be mounted on its own as a front tyre packer and be ballasted with suitcase weights of up to 500 kg.
