1690CCS Soybean Special Air Drill promotes metering accuracy
The John Deere 1690CCS Soybean Special is the bean machine made to get the customer ahead of tight schedules. It combines mobility, speed, economy, and productivity in machine widths that complement your planter. Seed tanks are mounted on the air seeding tool, shortening the machine as compared to a tool-cart combination for improved maneuverability. The new grounddriven volumetric metering system ensures metering accuracy to speeds of 12.9 kilometers per hour (8 miles per hour). The machine is built tough for less maintenance. Integration of tanks onto the tool reduces overall cost and horsepower requirements to make the 1690CCS more economical. Large central tanks, wide widths, and fast operating speeds mean increased productivity. Standard features include in-cab rate adjustment, accurate seed counting monitor, low level bin sensor, half-width disconnect, and choice of three metering wheels. Optional features include rear auxiliary hydraulic couplers and platformmounted fill lights.
