Due to the arrangement of the axis of the drive wheels on the same line as the grain coulters, synchronous copying of the field relief is achieved by both the frame and the sowing section.
A tread with grippers ontyres support-drivewheels reduce their slippage, which ensures a given interval between seeds.
The seed drills are equipped with a durable hydroficated marker with a disc of a larger diameter, which has the ability to change the angle of attack to obtain a clearly visible trace.
Completeness of the seeder with a transport device allows you to move it along general purpose roads without the use of additional transport ones.
means.

The semi-automatic coupling ensures quick and safe connection of the seeder with the tractor.
The hitch has the ability to move along the frame beam, which allows sowing with a row spacing of 450 mm with tractors that do not change the track width (for example, T-70C).

To create a uniform vacuum, necessary when sowing heavy seeds of leguminous crops (soy, etc.), the fan is equipped with an additional air duct. The beam of the seeder frame is the receiver of the pneumatic system of the seeder, it reduces the pulsation of the air flow, which allows you to obtain uniform seeding on each section.
The fan is equipped with an overrunning clutch that protects the belt transmission from increased wear.

The presence of a viewing window allows visual control of the quality of the seeding device during the adjustment process.
A comb-type twin seed dropper ensures accurate single-seed sowing. A harrow is installed on the sowing disk.
The seeding device produces accurate single-grain sowing of seeds of different cultures with a seeding rate of 2 to 43 pieces per linear meter.

An unloading hatch is provided for quick removal of seeds from the chamber of the seeding device.

The fat-seeding system through the fat coulters provides the possibility of applying mineral fertilizers away from the row with the required amount.
displacement that excludes the harmful effect of fats on seeds.

Plastic bushings are installed in the fat bunker, which prevent the accidental spillage of mineral fertilizers.
An unloading hatch is provided in the fat bunker to remove the remains of mineral fertilizers.

To improve seed coverage and the stability of sowing sections during the operation of corn planters, a wide roller, rakes and a plume are used in the section-
rail.

Rolling the soil in the sown rows improves the contact between the seeds and the moist soil at the bottom of the furrows, provides capillary rise of moisture and creates
favorable conditions for earlier and friendly germination of seeds.
Gas exchange is carried out thanks to open zones.
