A new mounting kit to fit a Stocks Ag Turbo Jet 10 to a trailed Sky EasyDrill has been launched. The kit allows separate metering and accurate application of Avadex herbicide through an additional set of outlets behind the drill’s press wheel.
The mounting kit is designed to integrate with the Sky EasyDrill and consists of a loading platform, steps and guard rail to meet all safety regulations and maintain a safe environment for the operator. The Turbo Jet comes in versions specified for the 4m, 6m and 8m Sky EasyDrill, it has been colour matched, fitted with a 240ltr hopper and includes an Avadex feed block metering roller, 32mm seed hoses and 10 outlet spreader
plates, allowing for an even application.
The Turbo Jet 10 is fitted with the intuitive i-CON Control, which allows for rates to be automatically controlled in proportion to forward speed for ultimate accuracy. When the Turbo Jet is not being utilised for Avadex application it can be used as an additional applicator enabling a fully specified drill to apply 5 products at once through 3 different outlets. Furthermore, the Turbo Jet can apply variable rates of product according to mapping data using a GPS based touch screen.
This option is available directly to Sky EasyDrill owners or available through OPICO Ltd. and their SKY Agriculture dealer network for any new Sky EasyDrill installation.
The Turbo Jet can also be used for applying clover seed, full-rate grass reseeds, and cover crops, when mounted to a wide variety of machines, including grass harrows and cultivators.
