What is the PRO-system? PRO stands for Precision Residue Opener System and good "stands" is what it's all about. The BIG difference between the new Krause 5250 Pro-System No-Till drills and other no-till drills is in seed depth control. PRO-System drills feature Krause's exclusive, patented precision opener which utilizes a 3" x 14" depth gauging wheel in front of the double-disc opener, followed by an adjustable depth press wheel. The drawbar pivots above the opener, allowing the gauge wheel, opener and press wheel to traverse uneven ground while maintaining precise control of seeding depth. The PRO-System can give your no-till soybean or small grain crop the advantage of consistent, accurate seed depth placement, improved seed germination and even stand emergence... all critical factors in no-till production.


Graphic:Precision Residue
Opener System Krause 5250 PRO-System No-Till drills share the same rugged, dependable features proven reliable on our 5200N Series No-Till grain drills. Krause No-Till drills feature a "unitized" design with the coulter beam mounted close to the openers for accurate coulter-to-opener tracking in gradual turns and on hillsides. The precision double-disc openers are designed with a 5/8" leading edge for better residue cutting and are adjustable for down pressure ranging from 160 lbs. to 250 lbs. per opener. Quick-adjust press wheels fold and firm the seed trench around the seed for optimum seed-to-soil contact.
