Case IH Precision Hoe™ 800
Features
Parallel Link Row Unit
The patented parallel link row unit--with double-shoot knife opener and single-shank design-- provides exceptional seed and fertilizer placement accuracy and depth control. The Precision Hoe™ 800 combines precise control with rugged reliability for seeding in uneven terrain and tough no-till conditions.
Patented Parallel Linkage
Parallel link maintains opener depth from the top to the bottom of its entire range of motion:
- 9 in up and 7 in down
- Depth is adjustable in 1/8 in increments
Retains the angle at which the knife opener engages the ground:
- Preserves the 1 to 1.5 in separation between seed and fertilizer bands -- ideal for fertilizer availability to seed
- Preserves the consistent distance between the knife and the packing wheel
Adjustable hydraulic control of packing and trip force:
- Trip force adjusts from 275-550 lbs
- Down-pressure/packing force adjusts from 135-215 lbs
Ultra-Low Disturbance Opener
Patented, angled double-shoot knife opener works hand-in-hand with parallel linkage to provide:
- Precise seed and fertilizer depth placement
- Positive separation of seed and fertilizer bands
- The ability to handle dry, liquid or anhydrous ammonia fertilizer
Made of tough material:
- Carbide opener tips for prolonged wear
Single-Shank Design
The unique design delivers both seed and fertilizer on one shank:
- Uses half the number of shanks vs. competitive models that use two separate shanks to place seed and fertilizer
Advantages of fewer shanks:
- Improved residue flow
- Decreased chance of plugging and dragging
- Ideal for heavier, tougher residue common with new genetics
- Better field finish
Wide Working Widths and Narrow Transport Width
The Precision Hoe™ 800 uses a similar patented rearward-folding frame design as the Case IH Flex Hoe™ 700. This innovative design allows wide working widths while providing industry-leading narrow transport width and height for visibility, stability and safety on the road.
Wide Working Width
Available in three working widths to cover more acres in less time:
- 50 ft (15.2 m)
- 60 ft (18.3 m)
- 70 ft (21.3 m)
All three working widths are:
- Available in 10 or 12 in rows
- Capable of operating with tow-between and tow-behind air systems
Narrow Transport Width and Height
All three configurations offer:
- Narrow 17 ft 8 in (5.38 m) transport width
- Short 16 ft 9 in (5.03 m) transport height
- Good visibility during transport
This compact footprint allows for:
- Operator peace of mind on busy highways
- Easy inside storage during the off-season
