2026 SUNFLOWER 9312-15

SUNFLOWER - 9312-15 — END-WHEEL GRAIN DRILL Ideal for pastures that require reseeding due to drought or over grazing, the Sunflower pasture drill is also effective for seeding along highways and electrical highline right-of-ways. Smaller farming operations have found this tough, compact grain drill can handle all of their conventional and no-till seeding needs. Sunflower’s 9312 pull-type end-wheel design positions the all-purpose openers and the end wheels in line for uniform performance, even on rough terrain. When seeding side hills and sloped fields, the end wheels act as stabilizers to hold the openers steady and do not subject the openers to the extreme side pressures encountered by caddy mounted units. The tough 9312 pasture drill is built with the same heavy frame and quality guidelines as the rest of Sunflower’s grain drill line. FEATURES • End-wheel design with drive wheel in front of openers ALL-PURPOSE "HEADS UP" OPENER All-purpose openers feature wide set half-inch parallel links for better depth control and dead-on accuracy in seed placement. Two 400 lbs. retention springs can generate 450+ lbs. at the pinch point of the opener blade. Down pressures can be easily adjusted from no-till to conventional seeding without tools. 15" diameter x 3 1/2-millimeter “Heads Up” opener blades eliminate pairing of rows, premature leading blade wear and side loading of bearings. An eight-inch stagger helps passage of residue through the seeding system when seeding in heavy-residue, no-till situations. SEED HOPPERS The all-welded seed hoppers are constructed of heavy 16-gauge steel with 3/16" thick end plates. The bolt-in hopper bottoms allow multiple row spacing using the same hopper. 9300 Series (2.4 bu.) SEED METERS The infinitely variable meters are very gentle on seeds and provide a continuous flow of material, unlike fluted meters that drop seed in groups. This design has a better singulation effect than dumping small groups of seed (as in fluted meter operations). Rates are easily changed with a lever adjustment system on each hopper system. A small-seeds (legume) seeding hopper can be added to all models. WALK BOARDS 9000 series drills feature an automatically locking walk board. Lift the walk board to the raised position and the lock will engage, placing the pin in the lock position. The walk board is deep and the ladder folds over the walk board rather than under it. Attached to the ladder mount is a folding handle to assist the operator in mounting the walk board. EXTRA HEAVY FRAMES Heavy-duty 3/8" x 7" x 7" main frames are coupled to a 3/8" x 3" x 5" opener frame to create a sound foundation for all Sunflower grain drills.
