1.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
The Seed Hawk
®
tank is a single axle tank which is designed to be a tow
between or a tow behind except the 800 tank which is only a tow behind. The
400 tank is a 400 bushel two compartment tank with a 60/40 split. A 100 bushel
third tank and meter can be added to the 400 to make it a 500 bushel cart
mounted on board the tool bar or as a stand alone tank. The 600 bushel and
800 bushel tanks are both three compartments and have a standard two fan
configuration. The meters are designed to utilize each compartment for high
efficiency by being able to divert the product in the compartment into either the
seed or fertilizer air stream. A single spiral roller is in every meter which is
capable of accurately dispensing low amounts of canola and high rates of
fertilizer. A Vaderstad infinite gearbox is also on every meter which allows the
grower to accommodate such rates of canola and fertilizer.
