Fertilizer-application performance

Paste fertilizing machine with enhanced maintenance performance features (P-type)

These models are equipped with a large-capacity 72-liter tank for further efficiency increase.
Enjoy enhanced user-friendly benefits thanks to the ability to undertake quick discharging and improved maintenance performance.

Dual-stage paste fertilizer application system (PN-type)

The paste fertilizer application system (side-row fertilizer application system) that is used with these models enables effective application of fertilizer by way of the configuration of fertilizer-application positioning and volume at high levels of precision. Dual-stage paste fertilizer application system promotes a greater fertilizer response through the use of a slow-release paste fertilizer, which in turn produces a labor-saving benefit by reducing the need to apply additional fertilizer at a later date.

Large-capacity 72 L paste tank

Thanks to large capacity tank, it reduces frequency to be replenished with fresh fertilizer and helps operators engage in uninterrupted work. As the tank is mounted externally, the rice transplanter itself will sustain less staining by paste in the course of operations. The cover can be easily opened through a one-touch process.

Pump embedded in the driving unit

As the paste pump is embedded in the driving unit, rusting caused by mud or fertilizer is unlikely and maintenance costs can be reduced.

Out-of-fertilizer signal

The left and right indicators will flash once machine is out of fertilizer. Remotely located assistant can also be notified to increase efficiency of any assistance work that is undertaken.

Drain cock Maintenance

Equipped with a handy paste drain cock that allows you to discharge fertilizer easily without getting your hands dirty.

Rust-proof materials Maintenance

Superior durability has been achieved by utilizing rust-proof materials for everything from the hooks to the bolts that are used for the paste feeder in order to prevent rusting caused by exposure to fertilizer.

A large-capacity granulated fertilizing machine that can be easily replenished and emptied (R-type)

Fertilizer-application function was upgraded to enable high-efficiency work.
These models are equipped with a large-capacity hopper and convenient functions designed to enable quick discharging.

78 L Large-capacity & hoisting type hopper

Large-capacity hopper enables uninterrupted work to be performed without replenishing fertilizer in addition. Height of hopper has been reduced, and it contributes to improve operating performance whenever hopper is being replenished and rear-facing visibility from the driver.

High-speed discharging hopper Maintenance

Flip-up hopper can be quickly emptied of any remaining fertilizer by opening outlets on both sides.
Perforated plate can also be cleaned with ease.

Planting-linked row-stoppage clutch & self-cleaning springs

Faulty operations are prevented since the fertilizing row-stop clutch and planting row-stoppage clutch are linked. Self-cleaning springs prevent clogging of air-merging parts where granulated fertilizer is susceptible to pooling and facilitates the distribution of fertilizer.

Out-of-fertilizer signal

Left and right indicators will flash once machine is out of fertilizer. Remotely located assistant can also be notified to increase efficiency of any assistance work that is undertaken.

Dial for adjusting volume of fertilizer to be applied and all-rows fertilizer application clutch

The volume of fertilizer to be applied can be easily adjusted with a single dial. Adjustments between ten and ninety kilograms per tenth of a hectare can be made with a complete seedling count. An all-rows fertilizer application clutch is also provided to enable the drive and blower to be shut-off through a one-touch process whenever the fertilizer is not being applied.
