5700 Air Hoe Drill


5700 Air Hoe Drill

The 5700 AHD entered the market with the shallowest frame depth in the industry to deliver the highest precision in seed placement. The unique 5-row frame depth provided for maximum residue passage.

  • The 7" row spaced unit was offered at 38½' & 42' working widths;
  • Shallow frame depth;
  • Excellent residue clearance with 5 row frame design;
  • The heavy-duty construction is built to stand the test of time;
  • Outstanding Land Following Capabilities

Precise Seed Placement & Unmatched DurabilityThe 5700''s heavy-duty construction, from the frame to the axles and packers, is built to stand the test of time.

  • The 5700 AHD featured a 140" (3.56 m) distance between the front wheels and packers.  This short distance allowed for the highest precision in seed placement.
  • Although the 5700 had the shallowest frame design in the industry, the unique 5-row frame depth provides for maximum residue passage. The minimum between any two shanks is 28".
  • The front caster wheels are positioned inside the hoe drill frame with the packers mounted tightly behind the rear trips to provide you with a very shallow wheel-to-packer depth for outstanding contour following capabilities and precise seed placement.
  • The 5700's heavy-duty construction, from the frame to the axles and packers, is built to stand the test of time. The trip assemblies have been proven totally reliable over hundreds of millions of acres.
  • Heavy duty 21-3/8 (54.3 cm) diameter steel packer wheels are constructed using 11 gauge high strength steel, doubled up on the packing face for extra strength and excellent wear resistance.
  • Heavy duty packer wheels are mounted on walking gangs to allow the packers to clear obstacles with ease.
  • A pole style hitch is standard equipment and allows for sharp turns without the worry of the tractor tire striking the hitch.
  • The unique self leveling hitch for towing the air seeder behind the drill's mainframe. This feature helps to prevent the seeder from pulling up or down on the drill and adversely affecting seeding depth.
  • Dual wheels are standard on the main frame casters and rear transport standards for a smooth ride, even on rougher country roads.

5700 AHD Trip assembly


The Most Reliable Trip Assembly
  • The renowned Bourgault Trip Assembly is proven over millions of acres;
  • Hydraulic depth control eliminates depth variation due to linkage wear;
  • Cost Effective Opener Systems
  • Quick Change Depth Control

The 5700's heavy-duty construction, from the frame to the axles and packers, is built to stand the test of time
  • The Bourgault trip assembly design has been proven totally reliable over hundreds of millions of acres. The pivot is Nylatron® equipped for greaseless operation.
  • Bourgault uses slave cylinder hydraulics to provide the most precise seed placement in the industry. This design eliminates the depth variation problems that linkage type systems readily experience once a little wear occurs.
  • Bourgault's seed openers have proven outstanding for cost effective direct seeding. The opener provides a 2 inch spread so relatively high rates of nitrogen can still be placed with cereals. (The exact amount will vary with soil type, moisture content and fertilizer type.)
  • Depth is easily adjusted using Bourgault's unique "Quick Change" depth control adjustment system.
