Designed for the Delta, the PL5200 is a 40' mounted stack-fold planter that excels in wide row applications. This 12-row system can accommodate a variety of crops and is available in 36”, 38”, and 40” spacings on single- or twin-row configurations. The exclusive side-shift option allows operators to switch from twin- to single-row in under an hour.

To efficiently cover more acres in a day, the PL5200 is available in a 50-bu. bulk-fill hopper or individual row hoppers. Producers can also choose from a traditional 3-section mechanical ground drive, a 3-section variable rate-ready hydraulic drive, or electric individual row control (IRC) drive. The PL5200 is ISOBUS-compatible and provides producers with simple, practical monitor technology.

Like the rest of the PL-Series planters, the PL5200 utilizes the 5000 series Air-Pro® meter, offering the highest level of singulation on the market. The 5000 Series opener achieves uniform spacing by “dead-dropping” the seed directly into the trench using the Clear Shot® seed tube. The 5000 Series row unit offers long-term row unit stability, accurate seed depth, and a variety of press wheel options.

With a clean frame design, producers can enjoy high visibility and maneuverability in the field and on the road. A shortened 3-point attachment improves tractor leverage, weight balance, and overall center of gravity. Lift-assist is an option for tractors with a category 3 hitch, though rear lift-assist is not required for tractors with a category 4 hitch.

Features may include:

Choose between either ground drive (shown), hydraulic drive or Individual Row Control (IRC) for turn compensation and prescription map planting.

Utilizes ductile cast parallel arms for long-term row unit stability. 15", 4mm blades are offset ½" to form a perfect seed trench.

The new PL5200 planter offers you a choice of on-row individual hoppers or bulk seed with air delivery. The 50-bushel bulk hopper is located close to the tractor to reduce tractor 3-point lifting requirements.

Now available with SureForce by AgLeader! SureForce responds instantly to changing conditions, giving each row the exact pressure needed to plant at the ideal depth.

The offset hitch helps keep the row units centered on top of the beds and gives twin-row models the ability to convert between single and twin row spacings in under an hour.

Seed distribution on bulk models is handled by a venturi system without any moving parts. This ensures reliability and makes cleanout easy.
