Introduction

Table of Contents

Land Pride welcomes you to the growing family of new product owners.

This implement has been designed with care and built by skilled workers using quality materials. Proper assembly, maintenance, and safe operating practices will help you get years of satisfactory use from the machine.

Application

The PS1548 and PS1572 Primary Seeders are excellent planting tools for professional contract landscapers, professional turf managers, and municipal grounds keepers. Their narrower widths make them very effective in seeding applications on residential lots, grassy medians, grassy parkings or right-of- ways adjacent to sidewalks, community parks, sporting facilities, and golf courses. Unlike wider models of seeders these units will do a more effective job of planting in areas where undulations, moguls, and depressions are prevalent. The main seed box is equipped with our standard fluted seed cups and an agitator enabling highly accurate and uniform delivery of most turf grass seeds as well as a wide variety of other seeds ranging from alfalfa to peas.
