Our VITASEM M and VITASEM M CLASSIC are implement-mounted seed drills. Coupling up to FOX compact combinations or LION power harrows in their light, medium or heavy versions is done in minutes via a 4-point linkage on the rear roller. The optional hydraulic top link allows generous coulter lift via the centrally located pivot point on the rear roller.
In the field the weight of the seed drill acts directly on the rear roller. The power harrow retains its freedom of movement and can ride over stones.
Mounted on compact combinations or power harrows, the weight of the seed drill is placed as far forward as possible. The additional weight of the seed drill on the rear roller provides even better consolidation of the seedbed. The distance between the coulters and the power harrow rear roller is minimised to form a compact unit.
Fixing the seed drill to the rear roller and connecting it to a top link with the soil preparation implement forms a parallel linkage. As a result, rear roller and seed drill form a single unit, which means that no corresponding adjustment of the top link is necessary when the working depth of the soil preparation implement is adjusted. The machine is consequently always exactly horizontal.
The metering shaft is driven by a spur wheel running within the working width. The step-less gearbox runs in high viscosity oil for smooth, uniform seed placement, even at low speed.
The metering shaft drive can be powered electrically if preferred. The speed signal comes from the radar sensor on the drill or from the tractor, then the spur wheel is not needed.

VITASEM A CLASSIC models have a smaller seed hopper. They are consequently lighter and designed for operation with smaller 4-cylinder tractors. Excellent view of the working result thanks to the low equipment height.
Standard hopper capacity, all models / optional increased capacity
VITASEM M 3000 CLASSIC: 530 l
VITASEM M 2500: 640 l
VITASEM M 3000 & M 3000 DD: 770 l / 1.200 l
VITASEM M 4000 & M 4000 DD: 1.070 l / 1.700 l
To maintain reliable operation and rapid adjustment, all machine settings are located on the left side of the implement and can be changed without tools. Coulter pressure and seed depth are set centrally using the ratchet wrench supplied.
Hydraulic coulter pressure adjustment is available as an option. This means that pressure can be adjusted while driving.
