Small Seeds Attachment
The small seeds attachment is designed to meter
various small seeds. It is driven independently of
the main seed box. The small seeds box is 0.24
bushel per foot (27.7 liters/meter) with a total ca-
pacity of 2.62 bushes (92.3 liters).
The small seeds attachment is available with two
seed release point options: Y-tube release and
press wheel release.
With the Y-tube release, seed metered out of the
small seeds box is directed into the main seed
tube, and drops between the disk blades at the
bottom of the opener trench.
With the press wheel release, a separate small
seed drop hose is installed on each opener. This
releases the seed just ahead of the opener’s
depth controlling press wheel.
For seed rates and adjustments, refer to “Small
Seeds Attachment”, page 34. For lubrication
points, refer to “Lubrication”, page 49.
To order the small seeds attachment, contact your
Great Plains dealer.
