D9 mounted seed drill

The D9 Special comes in working widths of 2.5 m and 3 m. This cost-effective mounted seed drill is an attractive entry-level model built to the exacting AMAZONE quality standards. This means: no compromises when it comes to metering accuracy and seed embedment. The hopper sizes for the 3 m wide, D9 Special range from 450 l to 850 l.

The D9 Super comes in working widths of 3 m, 3.5 m and 4 m. In combination with the KR mounted carrier system, the D9 Super can even achieve working widths of 9 m and 12 m. The hopper sizes of the 3 m wide, D9 Super range from 600 l to a maximum of 1,000 l. The coulter pressure adjustment of the D9 Super is hydraulic as standard.

The AD harrow-mounted seed drill and the D9 mounted seed drill can be combined with either a KE Rotamix rotary harrow, the KX Cultimix rotary cultivator or the KG Cultimix rotary cultivator.

Various types are available for the choice of roller, so that the complete soil tillage unit can be perfectly adapted to the respective soil conditions.

The wide variety of KE 02 Rotamix rotary harrow models enables AMAZONE to offer reliable rotary harrows tailored to your needs. Combined with a seed drill, or for solo use, the soil tillage implements stand for uncompromising reliability and quality.

With the KX Cultimix rotary cultivator, in a 3 m working width and for tractors in the 190 hp class, a very flexible PTO-driven soil tillage implement now exists that can be used as a rotary cultivator or as a rotary harrow.

The KX Cultimix rotary cultivator is ideally suited for seedbed preparation on medium to heavy soils.

The KG Special rotary cultivators, in working widths of 3 m, 3.5 m and 4 m, are ideally suited for seedbed preparation on heavy soils and for mulch sowing.

The KG Super, in 3 m, 3.5 m and 4 m working widths, is equipped with a high capacity gearbox for tractor horsepowers of up to 300 hp. The KG Super has reinforced tines as standard and can be ordered with hydraulic depth adjustment and oil cooler as options.

Thanks to the “liftpack” system used with the D9 linkage-mounted seed drill, or the QuickLink release coupling system of the AD harrow-mounted seed drill, the drill itself can be easily and quickly linked to the various AMAZONE soil tillage systems without the need for tools. In this way, the most appropriate and versatile sowing combination can be put together to cope with the most diverse of soils and applications.

The AMAZONE “Liftpack” system allows the D9 mounted seed drill to be combined with a soil tillage system. Thus seedbed preparation and sowing can be combined in a single pass. Mounting requires only a few steps and no tools.

Optional coupling parts are available for the rigid attachment of the D9 mounted seed drill to a soil tillage machine.

The large seed hopper has a robust cover with rubber seals to keep out the dust and rain. The cover is particularly easy to operate, as it has a tubular handle and a gas-pressure cylinder. By matching the different sized seed hoppers and extensions, the capacity can be varied from 450 l to 1,000 l on a drill with a working width of 3 m.

An especially wide loading board, accessible via folding rear steps, simplifies the filling of the seed drill. The very spacious fill opening dimensions ensures a quick and convenient filling process – not only from big bags and front end loader buckets but also from small sacks.

Optionally available dividers keep the seed from sliding around in hilly terrain.

The standard mechanical fill level indicator allows the driver to keep an eye on the fill level from the tractor cab.

An optional rape insert kit can be quickly and easily attached inside the seed hopper to reduce the residual amounts of seed.

The D9 mounted seed drill, when without a soil tillage tool, provides a light and compact seed drill for small to medium sized operations, especially for sowing after the plough.

The option of fitting the track markers directly onto the seed drill is recommended if the D9 mounted seed drill is frequently used on its own. When the track markers are switched over, the tramline rhythm is automatically advanced in order to create tramlines at the desired spacing. For the D9 Super, the track markers are further protected against damage by shear bolts.

High area output at a favourable price

A total working width of 9 m or 12 m can be achieved with the use of three D9 mounted seed drills in the AMAZONE KR mounted carrier system coupling frame. Each individual machine has its own chassis and can thus flexibly adjust, even to extremely uneven ground. The coupling frame is pulled by tractors of around 180 kW (240 hp). The three seed drills also come with “Liftpack” systems for transport and for turning on the headland. The very robust track markers leave a mark for the centre of the tractor and are folded vertically when switching over.

The central seed drill is equipped with tramline control to create tramlines at intervals of 12 m, 24 m or 36 m. The side-mounted machines are folded in during transport. When folded in, the transport width is approximately 6 m. A total of just two hydraulic spool valves are required for the tractor. The three D9 Supers can also be used individually.

The trailed carrier system, which combines individual machines to form a single high-output unit, can also be used with the Catros compact disc harrow. The coupling frame is designed for use by ring-fenced, large-scale operations.*
