Tyne Drill

TD3601 Tyne Direct Drill

The TD series has been designed as the ultimate pasture tyne drill.

• The drought highlighted the shortcomings of current pasture tyne equipped direct drills
  • Lack of penetration – especially with front disc coulters engaged
  • Lack of trash handling capability – especially with disc-coulters dis-engaged
  • Hard bottomed, open, tilth-less seed slots  – exacerbated by damaged/worn baker boots
  • Lack of tilth and seed cover
• The DOYLE TD drill design has addressed all these issues plus more
• Unique design with extendable toolbars for a 3.6m working width but only 3.05m transport width
• 100x100x9mm RHS and 16mm 350 grade plate frame makes for an extra heavy duty machine with built-in penetrating weight
• 5 1/2 toolbars on 550mm spacings for superior trash handling capability
• Double M16 U-bolted 25mm coil tynes for tight toolbar clamping (32mm coil tynes available) on 150mm row spacings
• Single bolt BOSS3 McCoy lucerne points
  • Narrow 10mm wide x 75mm deep tungsten tile
  • Low disturbance at shallow or deep levels
  • Longer life – unlike a baker boot, rock damage to the tip does not seriously affect operation
  • Single bolt BOSS1 cast baker boots available
• Hydraulically lowered harrow bar for seed coverage – superior seed coverage but does not impact on transport, agility or reversing of machine
• In-frame wheel assemblies for improved ground following ability
• 315/70-22.5 super single truck tyres on 5.5Tonne Titan hubs (Australian made)
• Main seed box
  • Seed Only – DOYLE SB1200 with 1200 litre capacity
  • Seed and Fertiliser – DOYLE SB2200 with 2200 litre capacity
  • Full 304 stainless fabrication including bin, seed metering mechanism and  seed delivery system
  • High flow hydraulic fan
  • Mechanical
  • Ground wheel speed input
  • 4-120kg/ha variable seed rate without meter roll change
