Two Drill Hitch Requires No Hydraulics
"There's absolutely no overlap, no hydraulics and it pulls straight in all types of soils," says Bergkamp Inc. of its new "Double Time" two-drill hitch.
By pulling a rope, the tractor operator switches non-stop from road to field position, or vice versa. In road position, width of the hitch is no wider than the drill, permitting travel down any narrow country road, without overhang, the manufacturer points out. The hitch's zero turning radius allows you to plant back and forth.
It bolts onto the frame of the front drill. Almost all of its weight (1,500 lbs.) is carried on two 15 in. caster wheels.
Hitches currently available for Deere 8000 series drills ($2,475), International 510 and No. 10 drills ($2,975) and the new Great Plains end wheel drills ($2,475).
