2020 Great Plains 3S-4010HD & 3S-4010HDF Drill 3S-4010HDF

The Great Plains 3S-4010HD is a drill that can get big jobs done in a hurry! Its heavy-duty frame is equipped with enough weight to handle hard ground and the toughest double crop conditions. The drill’s six massive 18 x 22.5 tires keep it afloat when things are soggy in the spring.

The 10HD opener offers 15" 4mm blades running on 205 triple-lip seal bearings. Inside, a cast blade separator protects the seed tube. With its trailing flap, this full-length seed tube delivers seed precisely to the bottom of the trench every time. Parallel arms keep the opener’s attack angle consistent, regardless of terrain. Between end-to-end box flex and the floating hitch, this unit covers even the nastiest terrain with accuracy and ease.

With a 3.2 bu./ft. box, the 3S-4010HD also offers big capacity. The seed box can be split 60/40 for seed and dry fertilizer.

Features may include:

• Folds to a narrow 15' transport width for safe road travel. Front gauge wheels rotate from planting position to the front for road transport.

• Six (6) 18 x 22.5 tires provide excellent flotation and reduced ground compaction in soggy fields.

• Provides superior terrain following because the unit covers the terrain independently of the tongue.

• Single press wheel options include 3"x13" double rib*, 3"x13" center rib, or 2"x13" smooth. Double press wheels include 1"x12" double-V or 1.25"x13" wedge-style.

• Choose between a wide ¾" wavy blade, a 5/8" Turbo coulter blade that is aggressive and prepares a mini seedbed ahead of the opener, or a 5/16" fluted coulter blade that penetrates easily to perform minimum tillage.

• This system splits no-till seeding into two operations: penetration and seed placement. Preloaded at 450 lbs., frame-mounted coulters get the job done by working at the desired depth, ensuring optimum seed placement for a uniform stand. Increase coulter depth to penetrate hard, dry soils, or reduce coulter depth in soft conditions. This allows the 10HD Series parallel linkage, double-disc openers to properly place the seed. Seeding depth is set by the 18-position T-handle at the rear of the opener.

• Choose all seed or seed/fertilizer models. Fertilizer units let the operator partition off the large 3.2 bu./ft. seed box to get the best ratio of seed to fertilizer. Partitions include: 60% seed to 40% fertilizer, 68% seed to 32% fertilizer, or 55% seed to 45% fertilizer.

• Opener blades are 15" and offset ½", so the leading blade can provide clean cutting and easy penetration. Heavy, 4mm blades with 6-dimple flanges and 205 triple-lip seal bearings make these some of the toughest, most durable openers on the market.
