5710 Air Hoe DrillPast Performers

The Proven Performer

• The 5710 AHD was released in sizes from 25' to 74' (7.6 to 22.5 m), 9.8" (249 mm) or 12.6"(320 mm) row spacings. Select sizes were offered in 7"(178 mm) spacing.
• A narrower main frame was used on the 25', 30', 35' and 47’ models to balance the size of the wings relative to the size of the main frame.
• The 5710 delivers a very shallow contouring depth to follow field topography, with 145" caster to packer distance at 1" of seeding depth.
• A wide range of packer wheels to match any farming operation. To be able to deliver the proper packing configuration for your farm, Bourgault offers many wheel options. The packer wheels are 22"(559mm) in diameter and offered in steel at 2-1/4", 3-1/2" and 4-1/2", rubber capped at 3" and 4", and full pneumatic at 5-1/2" wide.
• The 5710 was offered with a 230lb, 330lb, and 450lb spring trip to match every soil condition.   
• The 5710 features a very compact folding system to make transporting through smaller passages easy. (refer to Specifcations)
• The 5710's high precision depth control cylinders use a sophisticated seal design that includes a wiper seal on each side of the Teflon® piston seal.
• The parallel frame lift system keeps the frame level at all times regardless of seeding depth. Levelling of the 5710 is done using easily accessible heavy-duty turnbuckles found on both the caster wheels and packer gangs. (Wrenches provided.)
• The system provides single point depth control for easy and reliable seeding depth changes.
