Constant Seed Level,
The Key to Success
Lockwood's exclusive seed delivery system maintains a constant level of seed in the picker bowl. Seed chains deliver seed to the bowl and return chain removes excess seed from the bowl. There is always just the right amount of seed for the picker to perform at its best.

Radar Hydraulic Drive Eliminates Ground Slippage
Population is always based on true ground speed. With the radar hydraulic drive there is no drive wheel to slip. A radar gun constantly senses ground speed and relays it to the hydraulic drive. As an added benefit, population can be changed by the operator without leaving the tractor seat.

Improved Design
Independent closing disks are designed with longer travel and adjustable down pressure to ensure better seed coverage in all conditions.
