Simba Drill Conversions
Dale Drills offers seed drill conversions to incorporate either the Seed Hawk or the Eco-Drill knife coulter. Both knife coulters are only 1/2" (12mm) thick, which compared to that of many of thier counterparts, is very narrow. The reduced width of the knife reduces the power requirement of the whole drill significantly, whilst the tine still creates sufficient tilth around the seed for excellent establishment.
The knife coulter is attached to a range of different width Crossboard tines. The wider the Crossboard tine the greater the force exerted for penetration. 40mm wide Crossboard tines produce sufficient force for min or low till scenarios. 80mm Crossboard tines produce sufficient force for some direct drilling scenarios, however trash must be well managed.
A number of different types of drills can be converted, the most popular of which is the 6m Simba FreeFlow. The power requirement is reduced from approximately 250hp to 140hp.
We are happy to supply the necessary parts and instructions for customers to carry out conversions themselves.
