Covington - Catalog

		TP-46 Our Most Popular Model The TP-46 features a time tested design that is both simple to operate and to maintain. This planter has proven itself as a true "work horse". The TP-46 is available with or without the cotton planting attachment. For planting all other seeds three optional grain attachments are available. • Vibrator fertilizer distributor • Presser wheel-driven seeding and fertilizing units • Adjustable fertilizer flow • Adjustable seed depth (Frame Not Included)

		TP-3A With wood fertilizer box TP-6A (shown) (With fiberglass fertilizer box) Sturdy and efficient, the Covington two-row Side Dresser mounts quickly and easily on a cultivator frame. Vibrator pan handles hard, lumpy fertilizer at any distribution speed. Spout spacing is available for any normal width rows. (Frame Not Included)

		TP-66 This planter is identical to the TP-46 except that it features a fiberglass hopper for better corrosion resistance and sealed ball bearings on the presser wheel and disc assemblies. (Frame Not Included)

		TP-61 The Tp-61 features a rotary type distributor which is independently ground driven for consistent flow of fertilizer. Quick removal of the planters (2 bolts) leaves this fertilizer attachment in place for side dressing crops as they are cultivated. Planters handle seeds gently using inclined plates at speeds up to 6 mph (with Seedmaster Duplex Grain Attachment). The TP-61 Planter is easy to set up and operate. It beds, plants and fertilizes in one operation placing seeds between two fertilizer streams so they are not damaged from contact with fertilizer. (Frame Not Included)

		TP-68 The Tp-68 is a toolbar-mounted planter with parallel linkage flotation for following uneven terrain. Quick Depth adjustment by moving a spring loaded pin, makes it the farmers "friend". The TP-68 is available in a close-row model (MD3R shown) which places seeds in parallel rows 9" apart. Research at Alabama University Experiment Station. Headland Alabama, has shown an increase in peanut yields of about 10% when using the close-row spacing vs. standard-row spacing. The 16" wide press wheel seals both drills and leaves a smooth surface for band spraying herbicides.
