4.8.3 Twin Wing
The Twin Wing Seed™ opener creates a dual row, resulting in higher seedbed
utilization. The furrow, however, maintains the ideal seed and fertilizer placement
as the original single sideband opener.
Most Twin Wing™ openers are on 12 in. spacing. The grower can achieve 9 in.
spacing due to the 3 in. seed separation. With Single Side Band configuration,
10 in. spacing is the narrowest spacing that Seed Hawk offers.
What Twin Wing achieves is two rows of seed ¾ in. above and 1-½ in. to both
sides of the fertilizer band. The 1-½ in. separation to the side of the fertilizer
band is identical separation as the Single Side Band seed opener.
Contact local dealer for instructions on how to convert Single Side Band open-
er to accommodate the Twin Wing™ seed knife.
