Amazone Avant
The Avant front tank sowing combination is the ideal machine for contractors and large area conventional and mulch sowing. The weight distribution of the seed tank in front and the rotary cultivator with sowing rail in the rear provide an optimum distribution of the axle load.
Working Widths 4, 5 and 6 metres
The front seed tank can also be fitted directly onto a front mounted frame without the tyre packer so that the weight reduction allows an easier lifting of large volumes of seed corn. The front mounted seed hopper has been designed to be low and wide so as not to obstruct the driver's view. Visibility to the rear allows an uncluttered view of operation and the performance is easily monitored without the obstruction of a seed hopper.
The seed delivery fan is hydraulically driven by the tractor to supply a constant oil flow irrespective of engine speed. This ensures a constant air flow with modern tractors able to provide this oil flow without compromise on performance of the other tractor spool valves.
For transport on public roads the rear mounted combination can be hydraulically folded to a transport width of less than 3 m and a transport height of less than 3.70 m.
