The Most Durable Packer
Wheels in the Industry
One-Pass Seeding with
Mid Row Banders
Durable & Proven
Spring Trip Design
A wide selection of packer wheels are
available for all seeding requirements.
All-Steel Wheel
> 2¼", 3½" and 4½" wide
> thick steel cap with 11 ga. side-walls

Robust Design Provides Exceptional Penetration
The 5710 frame features five trip-mount rows
sandwiched between continuous members running
top and bottom the full depth of the frame.
Excellent Weight Distribution for Even Packing
Automatically Engaging Rear Transport Locks.
The rear transport frames on 5710 AHDs from 40' to 74'
units are designed with an over-center locking system.
This over-center mechanism automatically locks the
transport wheels in place and removes all load from the
transport cylinders.
The 5710 has been designed to produce even packing
pressure across the entire width of the machine.
> Heavy wing lift cylinders have been mounted on the
wing to transfer weight away from the heavier main
frame.
> The maximum number of packer wheels are located
on the main frame for optimum weight distribution.
> This construction provides a deep profile for high
strength and many years of trouble-free operation.
> The frame of the 5710 allows weight to be
transferred throughout the frame. Weight transfer
allows the 5710 to aggressively penetrate
compacted areas providing uniform seed placement
in conditions where flexible frame designs simply
ride up.
> The exceptional frame is designed to tow large
air seeder tanks, tow fertilizer caddies, and
accomodate MRBs.
Contouring Depth
6
Excellent Contour Following Capability
Set Seed Depth in Seconds
Bourgault has designed the 5710 with the packer wheels mounted closely
behind the rear trips and the front caster wheels positioned within the first
row of the air hoe drill’s frame. This results in a very short Contour Depth
(distance between packers and castor wheels) enabling the 5710 to better
follow undulant land.
Correct seeding depth is a critical factor in every farming operation. Depth
requirements will change with factors such as seed type, moisture conditions
and soil type. Farmers need the ability to make seeding adjustments when the
conditions change. The accurate and infinitely adjustable Quick Shift Depth Control
system provides one point depth control in seconds! Ease your workload with a
design that works for you.
Land Hugging Packer Gangs
Quick and Easy Levelling
The 5710 Requires Little Maintenance
Primary & Secondary Manifolds
Packer sections pivot from sideto-side so entire sections can walk
up and down to clear obstacles
with ease, and to distribute
packing pressures evenly to
ensure good seed to soil contact.
The 5710 is the easiest drill to level
in the industry! Easily accessible
heavy-duty turnbuckles found both on
the caster wheels and packer gangs
can be adjusted with the provided
wrenches . Detailed instructions
are also located near the point of
adjustment.
It takes little time to grease a 5710.
Bourgault designers incorporated high
quality replaceable wear-resistant
components such as Nylatron, case
hardened steel or composite bushings
in many pivot locations. Even the
rockshafts are mounted on maintenance
free nylon bearings. This leaves only a
minimum number of greasing locations
required on a 5710 AHD.
The Bourgault product delivery system
is designed for accurate distribution and
low incidence of seed damage (PAMI test
#702). Quick inspection manifold caps are
made from polyurethane to absorb impact
and minimize build up of dust or seed
treatment.
Secondary lines are constructed of a highly
durable heavy black rubber hose with
a steel helix. Tertiary lines are made of
polyethylene plastic.

5725/5730 Air Coulter Drills
The 5725 Air Coulter Drill is the
ultimate Zero-Till seeding implement!
No other seeding system can offer
ease-of-use, seedbed preservation,
and guaranteed seed-to-fertilizer
separation in a single pass at the level
of the 5725.
More Durable,
More Productive
The Ultimate
Zero-Till Drill
Bourgault Air Coulter Drills are
the lowest maintenance coulter
drill on the market. Competitor’s
coulter units have a multitude
of linkages and pivots that
are prone to bending and
wear. Their coulter drills also
require depth adjustment on
every run, burning up valuable
seeding time when setting seed
placement.
The Bourgault 5725 ACD uses
a single point depth control
allowing the depth to be set in
seconds, saving you hours in
adjustment time and reducing
any chance of error.
The 5725 Air Coulter Drill
provides ultra low disturbance
seeding. The 5725 ACD is
designed to operate in managed
field residue and stubble which
was cut high to capture moisture
and bind soil. The coulters
disturb little of the surface
residue that shields the soil from
the evaporating effects of the
wind and sun. The 5725 ACD
is also perfect for seeding into
chemical fallow.
Series 25 MRB II
®
Bourgault’s 5725 ACD is
designed for one-pass seeding
with the optional Mid Row
Bander System. Mid Row
Banders operate independently
of the seed coulters, depositing
granular, liquid, or NH3 fertilizer
between the seed rows.
Bourgault MRBs guarantee
seed to fertilizer separation
preventing seed burn, with any
fertilizer source, now that’s
peace of mind performance!
One-pass seeding is achieved
while maintaining moisture
levels, and soil and seedbed
quality, to create the ideal
growing environment.

Sealing in the Moisture
25 SERIES FIXED HEIGHT
COULTER ASSEMBLY
The initial trip load of 450 lbs. will
provide enough tension for superior
cutting action.
The flap of soil cut by the coulter is directed back
to the furrow by the closer wheel, then sealed by
the packer. The existing soil moisture is retained to
ensure optimum germination. Steel and rubber cap
packers are available for both models.
Composite fibre self-lubricating
bushing with urethane seals on a 1"
diameter chrome pin will provide years
of trouble-free operation.
10
Extreme Zero-Till
The 5725 ACD pictured at left is seeding directly into
a field harvested with a stripper header. The coulters
cut through the straw and accurately place the seed
and fertilizer in the soil. This successful zero-till
operation demonstrates the 5725’s ability to operate
in extreme conditions.
Spring loaded closer wheel arm
ensures adequate soil return on
the furrow, even in challenging field
conditions.
Seed Into All Stubble Types.
The 5725 ACD is designed to operate in the
most challenging standing stubble. Even in corn
or sunflower stubble, the 5725 will achieve even
seeding depths. Competitor’s units, equipped with
gauge wheels tend to ride on the corn or sunflower
stalks, resulting in uneven seed depth or seed
deposited on the ground.
Solid steel ½" x 11-5/8"
diameter closer wheel.
Scraper Adjustment Slide
The 20" diameter coulter is manufactured
from special hardened steel, and provides
over twice the wear life of an 18" diameter.

5730 Air Coulter Drill — The Cattleman’s Machine
Pasture and hay land operators now have an option for direct seeding and fertilizer application.
Known as the Cattleman’s Machine, the 5730 ACD has been designed with heavier components
to seed directly into established pastures and sod.
Direct seeding into pastures or sod will eliminate the costly process of ripping and working
the fields prior to reseeding. Cattlemen can also extend the life and increase the productivity
of pastures by banding fertilizer with a 5730 ACD. The closed furrow ensures minimal soil
disturbance, yet allows water to better infiltrate the soil. Cattle can continue to graze right
after the banding operation. Hay land can also be rejuvenated without creating a rough and
unmanageable field finish.

6000 Air Seeder
Over twenty-five years of Air Seeder development has led to the 6000 Series, the
latest generation Bourgault Air Seeder. The 6000 Series is the most versatile line of
air seeders offered today.
PDM Plus Metering System
Flexible, Internal, Tank Design
Variable Speed Transmission
The heart of the 6000 Series air seeder is the
Bourgault Positive Displacement Metering Plus
system. (Patent Pending)
The individual compartment internal port tank
design provides unprecedented flexibility to farmers.
The three (6350) or four (6450, 6550ST) internal
compartment design allows for efficient use of total
volume, regardless of seeding rates or size of seed
being applied.
The heavy-duty design of the Variable Speed
Transmission ensures that precision metering
rates will be maintained even in the harsh
agricultural environment.
> High density poly metering augers designed for
accurate metering and low maintenance.
> A precisely matched steel orifice ensures the
PDM Plus is gentle on peas and lentils, yet
accurately meters fine seeds like treated canola.
No rollers to change!
> A large flow-through sump for easy and complete
tank clean out and metering auger inspection.
> A five year, 100% warranty, plus a 50% lifetime
warranty are offered on the PDM Plus metering
auger and housing system.
The Class A Straight-Through distribution system
allows the operator to configure the air seeder
to any possible product delivery scenario. The
flexibility offered by the Bourgault 6550ST and 6450
Air Seeders is unmatched in the market.
> Each transmission is protected by a selfresetting torque limiting clutch.
> Change rates “on-the-go” with the optional Cab
Rate Adjust (CRA), Zone Rate Control (ZRC),
or the ZYNX Monitor/Controller System.
> In case of electrical problems, transmissions
can be easily converted to manual adjustment
to ensure no downtime.

Convenient Catwalk & Safety Handrails
Gearbox Transmission Drive
6000 SERIES AIR SEEDERS
This drive system provides a clean and
efficient transfer of power from the drive
wheel to each variable speed transmission.
The shaft drive system will provide you with
trouble-free operation and virtually zero
maintenance requirements.
Product Lift System (6280 - 6550ST)
14
This revolutionary new feature means you no longer
have to strain yourself by lugging heavy seed bags
or calibration boxes up the tank stairs. Simply load
your bags, or boxes, at waist level, and lift them
hydraulically to the top air seeder platform. (Patent
pending)
Four-Level Bin Sensors (491 Monitor Only)
Four optical sensors in each tank are strategically
positioned to report product drop and the contents
remaining in each tank. The top, or just off full sensor
indicates early in the seeding operation if the tank
level is dropping. The last, or just off empty sensor will
indicate that the compartment is almost empty. All but
the last sensor can be repositioned according to the
operator’s preference.
The convenient two-stage ladder and 5th
wheel platform provides easy access to the
tank top from either side of the air seeder.
The tank top handrails have a lift-and-release
feature, allowing them to be easily folded down
for indoor storage.
Working Lights
The working lights include lights around the metering
transmissions, the sides of the tank, the load/unload auger
head, catwalk, and on the rear of the air seeder. These lights
give excellent illumination around the seeding unit during night
time operation and are standard on the 6000 Series.
Patented Hydraulic Power Calibration
With the standard Hydraulic Power Calibration
system, it is very easy for an operator to obtain a
large, accurate product sample. The power calibration
operates on oil flow diverted to a hydraulic motor on
the metering system. A tank mounted switch box (with
optional auxiliary clutches) allows you to independently
control the size of the calibration sample collected from
each meter.
Class A Straight-Thru Primary Line Design
The Class A Straight-Thru primary line design makes it very easy
to direct the contents of any tank into any air stream. This allows
the operator to set up his seeding operation in the single, double,
or multi-shoot mode. Tank cleaning is clean and simple, with an
unobstructed drop into the load/unload auger hopper.

Convenient Tank
Unloading
With all distribution lines
located on the left-hand
side of the tank, the
load/unload auger is
easily pivoted under the
sump of the PDM Plus metering auger to clean out
the tank and metering system. No other air seeder
has such convenience!
Optical Blockage
Sensors
Eliminate the danger of
costly misses. Optical
sensors installed on the
tertiary air lines signal
the air seeder monitor if
there is a lack of product flow. Optical sensors are
superior to pin sensors as they will not run the risk
of product lodging. Customers can choose between
sensors installed on each tertiary run, or one run
per manifold to monitor each secondary run.

®
maximize the benefits of one-pass seeding, yet avoid the risks that are inherent
with other one-pass systems found on the market.
For over a decade and through millions of acres,
Bourgault Mid Row Banders have provided
guaranteed seed-to-fertilizer separation and
seedbed integrity. This product has truly
revolutionized one-pass seeding.
®
MRBs place nitrogen fertilizer between the seed
rows, shielding the seedlings from the nitrogen’s
harmful toxic and salt effects. The separation allows
only the mobile and beneficial nitrate form of the
fertilizer to reach the seedlings for optimum nutrient
uptake. Producers have the versatility to choose
from granular, liquid, or anhydrous without worry.
From every angle, the Bourgault Mid Row Bander
system is the superior one-pass seeding system
available.
®
The Series 25 MRB II is built on the outstanding
performance of the original Series 20 MRBs. The
Series 25 offer more user-friendly features, yet
still provide the same benefits to farmers. It is an
effective one-pass seeding system that does not
endanger the seed, and does not compromise
seedbed quality.

Adjustment is vertical and infinitely adjustable;
this allows the operator to change working height
quickly and easily, or “park” in the up position when
not in use.
SER IES 25 MI D ROW BANDER II
Fiberglide bushings in the cast height
adjustment mount provide a solid low
friction fit on the chrome shafts.
Floating scraper adjustment can be made
quickly by setting the tension on the spring.
The initial trip force is set at 450 lbs for
excellent soil penetration.
A heavy duty arm with a 4" wide pivot provides durability
through extreme conditions. Composite fiber selflubricating bushing with urethane seals and plastic thrust
washers pivots on 1" diameter chrome pin.
22
A user friendly slide adjust scraper/boot system allows
for adjustment as the disc wears.
The combo boot is a versatile
fertilizer applicator. It can be fitted
with distribution hoses for dry urea,
or tubes for anhydrous ammonia or
liquid fertilizer.
The carbide scraper provides many acres
of service. The carbide edge and wear pad
ensures long life, even in abrasive conditions.
The hub is a ductile, greasable, 4 bolt 1500 lb rated
capacity and comes with a tapered roller bearing and
triple lip seal.
The large 20" coulter disc is set at a 5° angle to cut field
residue.
Series 20 Mid Row Banders
Benefits of Mid Row Banders
®
The Bourgault Series 20 Mid Row Banders will
help farmers meet the challenges of adopting an
effective and low-risk one-pass seeding system at
an economical price. The Series 20 MRBs are the
original mid row banding system that revolutionized
low disturbance one-pass seeding in the small grain
growing regions of North America.
®
Nitrogen
Seed
Seed
Mid Row Band — after 1 day, the nitrogen band is in a concentrated
and dangerous form, but located well away from the seed. The seed
is beginning to germinate, utilizing nitrogen from itself, the soil, and
starter fertilizer included with the seed.
The cam lock at the top of the tension
spring allows the operator to quickly
retract and lock the MRBs when they
are not used.
The MRB is capable of
1" (25 mm) increments for
height adjustment.
®
Mid Row Band — after 4 weeks, the nitrogen band has converted to
nitrate and moved out towards the plant roots, which during growth
have sensed and tapped into the nutrient source.
The adjustable pressure
spring allows the operator
to change the pressure on
the inside floating scraper.
An 18" (457 mm)
coulter disc set
at a 5° angle cuts
open a furrow in
the soil.
Seedbed Integrity – MRBs coupled with narrow
seed openers provide a superior low disturbance
single pass seeding system. Wider profile
side-banding openers create more disturbance,
exposing the seedlings to potential emergence
problems from seedbed fracturing and poor seed
- fertilizer separation.
Guaranteed Separation – MRBs guarantee
separation of nitrogen fertilizer from the seed
row. Side-banding systems may cause the seed
to mix with the fertilizer depending on a number
of factors such as: seeding speed, soil texture,
opener condition, and soil moisture.
Versatility – MRBs work well with all forms
of nitrogen fertilizer: Dry Urea, Anhydrous
Ammonia, and Liquid UAN. Farmers have
the choice of using the nitrogen form that is
advantageous to their seeding operation. No 23
other one-pass system can offer this range of
flexibility with the same degree of safety.
Efficiency – MRB systems aid seeding efficiency
by allowing farmers to seed at higher speeds,
while those with side-band systems typically
have to maintain a slower seeding speed to
reduce soil throwing and soil fracturing by the
openers.
®
Mid Row Band
Side-Band
One myth is that in dry years, Mid Row Banders
will strand nitrogen. In actuality, if there is sufficient
moisture for germination and fertilizer nitrification,
mid row is the best place for nitrogen. It is easy
to see from the photos above that even in dry
conditions, the roots from an MRB system is
more developed, optimizing nutrient uptake and
maximizing yield potential.
Horsepower Requirements/Fuel Consumption–
Side-banding openers can pull harder than
MRBs with narrow seed knives. Easier pulling
MRBs mean less fuel consumed for the same
number of acres seeded, as well as, less wear
and tear on the tractor.
23
AGRONOMICS OF MRBs
MRBs Provide Optimum Nitrogen Location
Salt Effect & Seed Desiccation
Mid Row Banders prevent crop damage from fertilizer toxicity by providing
the required amount of separation between nitrogen and seed to provide
protection from ammonia and ammonium, but ready access to nitrate.
This separation also prevents salt effect of the fertilizer from desiccating
the seed(lings). The management of risk from fertilizer damage allows
producers to grow the best crops possible.
Nitrogen is a fertilizer but it is also a salt. Placing
high rates of nitrogen close to the seed subjects
the plant to high salt concentrations. Salt is a
drying agent which takes water from any available
source, this may make water unavailable to the seed
and seedlings. Urea and Liquid UAN have a high
salt index rating, so separation from the seed is
critical. MAP (12-51-0) has a much lower salt rating,
therefore, it can be placed safely with the seed in
the recommended rates.
Fertilizer Form & Toxicity
The initial form of nitrogen fertilizer is ammonia, (NH3). Nitrogen fertilizer,
in this form, is very toxic to the seed and plant, and is not very mobile in
the soil. Risk of fertilizer toxicity is high if the seed(ling) is close to the
fertilizer row. Mid row banding fertilizer eliminates the chance of the
24
seed coming into contact with the toxic ammonia.
Ionic transfer converts ammonia to ammonium, (NH4). Ammonium
is not as toxic as ammonia, but can cause seedling damage at an
excessive concentration. Ammonium sensitivity varies with plant species
and is not very mobile in the soil. Risk of fertilizer toxicity is reduced in
comparison with ammonia, but may impair plant development.
Microbial activity in the soil converts ammonium to nitrate (NO3). Nitrate
is the safest, most effective form of nitrogen and promotes robust plant
development. Nitrate is very mobile in the soil, and can reach the seed
row from the mid row band in as little as two days.

just ride on top of the ground.
The secret is in the design of the
spring trip system, utilizing
increasing force geometry.
> The deep profile provides high strength and
many years of trouble-free operation.
> As the soil gets tougher, the shanks begin to tip
back ever so slightly.
> The design allows weight to be transferred
throughout the frame to aggressively
penetrate compacted areas, providing
uniform seed placement.
> This increases the angle of attack of the sweeps
and their ability to penetrate the tough soil.
28
> Designed to tow large air seeder
tanks, tow fertilizer caddies, and mount
MRBs .

Dependable Hydraulics
Master-slave hydraulic
system for depth control.
> An in-line filter is
mounted on each
master cylinder.
> A precision line lock
valve eliminates
rebound and keeps
the series cylinders locked into place during
operation.
> The Quick Shift single point control sets the
operating depth of the entire machine
TM
> The trip springs extend and the penetration force
increases dramatically.
> This increase in force returns the shank/sweep in
it’s original position.
The result is that the 8810 will penetrate ground the
competition barely scratches.
The Bourgault trip assembly features a single
grease-less pivot point equipped with a nylon
composite bushing and a grade 8 bolt.
> Extensive tests have proven that Bourgault’s

Minimized Contouring Depth
Easy to Level
Research has proven that the ability to follow field contours
is related, primarily, to frame depth and wheel positioning.
The 8810 has the shortest contouring depth in the industry.
The front caster wheels are positioned close to the front of
the frame and the walking axles are centered in the frame.
With this short contouring depth, the 8810 seeds more
evenly over the peaks and valleys.
> Front-to-back adjustment is performed by adjusting the
screw jack that connects the in-frame running gear to
the caster wheel.
> Adjustment screws on top of the depth control cylinders
allow side to side adjustment.

9800 Rigid Hitch Chisel Plow
Bourgault is confident in it’s claim that the 9800 RHCP is the strongest
chisel plow ever built. The 9800 is the culmination of over 30 years of tillage
equipment manufacturing experience, the latest in stress analysis design
software and hundreds of hours of extreme endurance testing. The claim is
backed up with a 3-year limited warranty.
The renowned Bourgault “increasing force”
trip assembly is available in the 230, 330,
450, 500 or 600 lb. configuration. All spring
cushions are standard with greaseless
composite nylon pivot bushings.
Precise side-to-side frame section levelling
is adjusted above the depth control cylinder
using the wrench provided. The top cylinder
mount has two positions: an 18" lift range
regular lift setting and a high pressure 22"
setting.
Optional stabilizer wheels available for working
in high draft situations to ensure penetration of
the ground engagement tools.
An appropriate tongue height can be found
regardless of draw bar height or operating
depth. The hitch height adjustment mount can
be flipped end for end to provide additional
ground clearance.

fertilizer/air seeder cart loads to the tractor.
The frame features 4" x 4" x ¼" wall steel tubing
members welded between 4" x 3" x ¼" wall frontto-back members, producing a structure that is
extremely strong. With the continuous front to back
hitch beams running under the frame, the 9800 is

chisel plow can even come close to matching
the 9800s performance in heavy residue. The
four-row design provides generous distance
between the sweeps and the wheels. The
shank arrangement has been optimized to
provide excellent residue flow.

A large 18" turret style auger with single
flighting moves dry grain at up to 200
bu/minute with only 80 p.t.o. horsepower.
All auger flightings are balanced and
ride on bearings for smooth operation
and longer life.
UNLOADING AUGER
A mesh window located on
the front panel allows the
operator to see how much
product is in the 750 cart.
The hydraulic choke on the
unload auger gives the operator
independent flow control over and
above tractor rpm.
The 750 Smart Cart has
the choice of p.t.o. drive,
hydraulic drive, or both.
The low hitch weight of 3200 lb
(1450 kg) loaded will minimize
the wear and tear on the tractor.
The high clearance frame and clean
out location allow you to back over
a regular or swing-away auger and
unload without spillage, or to load into
an air seeder with the Load/Unload
Auger.

Turret Design
The Bourgault turret style unloading auger is a
unique feature in the grain cart market.
> The flatter profile almost eliminates potential
contact between the auger and grain truck.
> Place grain accurately! The operator can
adjust the position of the auger when topping
up, rather than riding the tractor clutch.
> The 750 turret style unloading auger can be
retracted over the tank, well supported and
safe for transport.

1100 Grain Cart
The lowest cost harvesting capacity available.
The 1100 Grain Cart has the
lowest height for its size in the
industry.
Mesh windows located on the front and
back panels show grain level. The
operator can also detect traffic when in
transport for increased safety.
38
Working lights are provided
on the turret auger and inside
the grain tank. Marker and
signal lights are located on
the rear of the cart for safe
transport.
Eight flotation tires on a double
walking axle assembly guarantees
stability and allows travel at 10
mph fully loaded.
The efficient truss design is more than
strong enough to take the 1100 bushel
load through wet fields and uneven terrain.
Trap doors found on the underside of the 1100
can be opened quickly to empty the contents
through the 6" x 56" openings.
Superior flotation combined with
the low hitch load allows the
operator to keep ahead of the
combines. The 1100 is the fastest
grain cart in the field!
