For more than 30 years, Bourgault equipment has consistently provided its customers with the least down time,
lowest operating costs and highest resale values. As an example, take the Bourgault Dual Purpose Cultivators
manufactured 30 years ago. Last year, the extremely wet weather forced some farmers to cultivate and repair
their badly rutted fields. Having sold, or retired their cultivators several years earlier because direct seeding had
made them obsolete, these farmers needed to re-purchase a cultivator. In some cases, Bourgault cultivators
that were more than 30 years old were purchased. These Bourgault units were either ready to go or were put
back into service for a very low cost. Furthermore, these Bourgault cultivators could be used for another 30
years. No other cultivator even comes close to delivering this type of durability! At Bourgault, we remain 100%
committed to designing and producing the best equipment on the planet. We believe that our track record
proves that we will consistently deliver on this commitment.

Paralink Hoe Drill
TM
The Bourgault 3310 PHD is the culmination of thousands of hours
™
of research, design and testing. The goal of consistent seed placement
was a key factor in the objectives governing design of this implement. By achieving this
benchmark, Bourgault can offer the best performing independent depth seeding system
with the greatest flexibility at the lowest risk over the widest range of conditions.
™
™
Devin Lung has a passion for mechanical engineering and design, and working with the
land. Devin brings a balance between farming challenges and practical solutions to the
equipment he is involved in developing. His work with Bourgault has brought him to leading
a team of Engineers in the development of the 3310 Paralink Hoe Drill. “As a designer, I
was focused from the very beginning to help develop a seeding system which could provide
the most consistent results over the widest range of conditions. As a farmer and seed
producer, and seeing the results of our work, I was able to justify the purchase a 3310 PHD
for my own family farm.”
Bourgault Mid Row Banders
The 3310 PHD is built to the same standards
of ingenuity, durability and simplicity as every
other Bourgault product. Bourgault backs this
with industry leading service and warranty. The
superior design and durable construction will
help ensure trouble-free operation and greater
resale value.
One of the defining features of the 3310 Paralink Hoe Drill is the optional
Mid Row Banders . Bourgault Series 25 MRBs allow producers to place any
rate and form of nitrogen fertilizer and sulphur between every other seed row
without danger of seed contact. Other benefits include superior seedbed
integrity, faster seeding operation, greater emergence, and superior residue
flow. No compromises are required to seed in a single-pass.

Smooth Field Finish
One of the many benefits of using
the 3310 Paralink Hoe Drill is
the smooth, even field finish. By
utilizing a narrow edge-on shank,
the seed-only openers displace
a minimal amount of soil. The
optional coulter MRBs also
minimize disturbance when placing
the nitrogen between every other
row. The result is a smooth, even
field finish with less wear and
tear on spraying and harvesting
equipment.
TM
®
Paralink System Provides Choice of Seed Tips
™
The Bourgault 3310 incorporates a parallel link system
for the seed opener to maintain a consistent tip angle in
relation to the soil, regardless of its position. As a result,
the operator is free to choose the tip that will work best
for his/her conditions and farming techniques. Careful
selection of the right tip will help ensure the best possible
seeding results. The openers are mounted on an
edge-on style shank to minimize soil disturbance and
throw, allowing a greater range of seeding speeds,
while minimizing soil disturbance. Many vendors
have a variety openers available that are compatible
with the 3310 PHD™.
Low Maintenance
The Paralink linkages pivot on lube-free long
life composite fibre bushings. These bushings
are designed for the demanding environment of
agricultural equipment. Strong cast components
and weldments of the arms are designed for seeding
around potholes and other field obstacles. The 3310
is backed with the same 3 year limited warranty as all
other Bourgault products.
™
Adjustable Hydraulic Pressure
The hydraulic configuration on the 3310 PHD
efficiently utilizes the tractor’s hydraulic system to
adjust packing and trip force for the banding coulters
and Paralink seed arm. The pressure may be
adjusted during the seeding operation for simple and
accurate control of the packing force and of the trip
break-out force. The hydraulic arrangement has been
designed with integrated line locks and may be used
to operate the banding coulters and seeding shanks,
or independently. Operators may set packing force
as low as 70 lb per run in wet conditions to prevent
over-packing and reduce draft. In a dry year, the
packing force can be set to an excess of 200 lb per
run to conserve all available moisture. The 3310 will
encompass the packing range currently offered by our
existing 8810 and 5710 seeding systems combined.

“The 3310 works through trash like you wouldn’t believe.”
“I’m up to 6.3 m.p.h. seeding Canola with a good finishing job.”
“The most important feature of the 3310 is seed placement. You know every seed row is placed
at the depth set.”

TECHNOLOGY
Well Engineered, Well Built Frame
Consistent Seed Depth in Variety of Environments
The 3310 PHD has been designed and tested to meet the same
demanding guidelines for quality as every other Bourgault product
offered. The 5" by 5" frame with large fore-aft beams on the mainframe
ensures many years of reliable service. This heavy and durable
construction gives the 3310 PHD the ability to penetrate hardpan soils
while still providing available packing force of over 200 lbs per opener.
Active down pressure on the inner wings aids the transfer of force,
ensuring the frame weight is available to all of the openers.
The Paralink arm is designed to achieve a balance between independent
contour-ability and stable opener operation. An optimal seed opener-topacker distance was developed to ensure good contouring characteristics
and productive seeding speeds while providing a stable operation. The result
of these design features is consistent seed placement over a wide range of
conditions. The Paralink design also enables producers to select from a wide
variety of openers to equip their 3310 PHD .
™
™
™
™
™
Superior Residue Clearance
Features such as a seed-only opener on each shank, optimal seed opener to
packer distance, edge-on shank design, and residue cutting MRB H coulters
allow the 3310 to deliver excellent trash flow in challenging conditions without
compromising the seedbed. Again and again, customers have commented on
the excellent trash clearance on both the 10" and 12" spaced units.
®
Series 25 MRB Fertilizer Applicators
®
The incorporation of optional Series 25 Mid Row Banders continues Bourgault’s
commitment to providing minimal risk one-pass seeding systems. The MRBs
equipped on the 3310 utilize a hydraulic system to lift the coulters from working
to transport position and adjust down pressure. Producers can choose between
a 10" or 12" spacing without the worry of increased risk of seed damage from
the nitrogen fertilizer.
®
Easy-Adjust Depth
Control
With the indexed pin depth
adjustment, managing the
seeding depth across the unit
is simple and repeatable. Depth
can be set at 1/6" increments
between 0" to 2½".
Effective Seeding Speeds
An optimal seed opener-to-packer distance allows soil to flow around the
seed opener and back into the seed row at productive seeding speeds. The
Bourgault PHD openers are mounted on an edge-on style shank to minimize
soil disturbance and throw, allowing a greater range of seeding speeds when
equipped with narrow openers and MRBs . Operators have commented that
they are comfortable with a speed increase of ½ to 1 mph over a similarly
equipped traditional hoe drill and still maintain seedbed integrity.

Quick and Easy Levelling
Set Seed Depth in Seconds
The 5710 is the easiest drill to level
in the industry! Easily accessible
heavy-duty turnbuckles, found both
on the castor wheels and packer
gangs, can be adjusted with the
provided wrenches. Detailed
instructions are also located near
the point of adjustment.
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.
A wide selection of packer wheels are available for all
seeding requirements.
> All steel wheel (21½" dia.)
- 2¼", 3½" and 4½" wide
- Thick steel cap with 11 ga. side-walls
- Weld seams do not contact soil
- Mud-scrapers optional for steel wheels
> Rubber faced semi-pneumatic wheel (22" dia.)
- 3" and 4" wide
> Fully pneumatic wheel - 5½" wide
Stone kickers standard on all packers
State-Of-The-Art Hydraulic System
The simple, yet durable hydraulic system
ensures that your seed and fertilizer are on
target all the time.
Hydraulic cylinders incorporate a sophisticated
seal design with high quality components. An
in-line filter is mounted on each master cylinder
to eliminate contamination. A precision line lock
valve eliminates rebound and keeps the series
cylinders locked into place while seeding. Each
step of the hydraulic system has been designed
for durability and accuracy.
Excellent Weight Distribution for
Even Packing
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. Packer sections
pivot from side-to-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 Johner farm produces a wide variety of crops including, canola, lentils, peas, chick peas, flax, wheat and durum. “I must
comment on the durability of the 5710 Air Hoe Drill. It has seeded 40,000 acres with zero dollars put into it. The summer of
2005, after 6 years of use, I decided we would check it over closely and fix it up. There was nothing that needed replacing.
Pins, bushing and linkages are not showing any excessive wear. Even the packer gangs were tight.” The Mid Row Banders are
also proving to be durable. “They are costing about 10 cents per acre to maintain”, says Randy.
Primary & Secondary
Manifolds
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 use highly
durable hose that is many
times more durable than
competitor’s hose.

Bourgault HSS™ System
As farming operations become larger, farmers look at different options in order to get the crop seeded within the
limited spring seeding window. The Bourgault HSS™ (High Speed Seeding) system gives operators a new and
viable option to increase seeding efficiency and maximize every hour in the seeding window. Cooperators who
have worked with the HSS system found that they were able to increase their seeding speed by 25% to 30%
under typical seeding conditions and achieve good field finish and seed placement.

The 5710 Requires
Little Maintenance
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 17
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
Air Hoe Drill.
w w w. b o u r g a u l t . c o m
Bourgault has designed the 5710 with the packer wheels mounted closely behind
the rear trips and the front castor 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.
5725
Air Coulter Drill
Equip with Bourgault Mid Row Banders®
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. One-pass seeding is achieved while maintaining moisture levels, and soil and seedbed quality, to create the
ideal growing environment.
The 5725 Air Coulter Drill is the ultimate Zero-Till seeding implement! The 5725 ACD is designed to operate in
managed field residue and stubble which is generally cut high to capture moisture and bind soil. The coulters
provide minimal soil and surface disturbance, shielding the soil from the evaporating effects of the wind and the sun.
When water and soil conservation is key, the 5725 ACD performs second to none.
Sealing in the Moisture
Extreme Zero-Till
More Durable, More Productive
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.
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 ACD pictured at right 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.
Seed Into All Stubble Types
Competitors’ units, equipped with gauge wheels tend to
ride on the corn or sunflower stalks, resulting in uneven
seed depth or seed left uncovered. The 5725 sets
seeding depth at the frame, providing more consistent
seed depth in residue. The coulter discs will cut
through field residue without stalks or vines wrapping
around shanks, so even in corn, sunflower, or soya
bean stubble, the 5725 will achieve consistent seeding
depths.
19
w w w. b o u r g a u l t . c o m
The flap of soil cut by the coulter is directed back
to the furrow by the closer wheel. Packing force of
150 to 200 lbs. per wheel ensures that the furrow
is well sealed, even in dry conditions. Existing soil
moisture is retained to ensure optimum germination
and emergence. Steel and rubber cap packers are
available for both models.

The Fixed Height Coulter — The Heart of the 5725 ACD
The Model 5725 Air Coulter Drill utilizes a coulter
assembly mounted to a spindle arm and an extension
spring to maintain pressure on the disc as it runs
through the soil.
1 The Coulter Disc is a 20" alloy steel disc set at a
specific angle to part the soil and produce a furrow.
2 The Carbide Floating Scraper scours the disc
as it turns to prevent plugging. Secondly, it helps
maintain the furrow as the seed is being placed.
3 The Dry Seed Boot directs the seed into
the furrow produced by the disc. Additional
boots are available on request.
4 The Floating Scraper Adjust allows for
pressure adjustment on the carbide scraper
using the handle supplied.
5 The Floating Scraper Slide allows for the
adjustment of the floating scraper placement
as the coulter wears.
6 The Extension Spring provides a trip force
of 430 lb for effective soil penetration.
7 The sturdy Upright Arm is constructed of
3"x3" tubing.
8 The Spring Tower anchors the spring to the
drill frame.
9 A Steel Closer Wheel works behind the
coulter opener to ensure the parted soil is
moved back over the furrow to prevent the
loss of product.
10The Outside Tine Scraper keeps the
side of the coulter disc free of mud or clay
buildup. This scraper is essential in moist,
high clay soils.

“Trash clearance was very good. We seeded into standing sunflower, corn, and wheat stubble. We also had very
good results seeding into bean ground. It actually has the best residue clearance of all my drills. We seeded between
6 and 6.5 mph, but the drill still left a smooth field finish. The germination was the best in my area.”
“We purchased this unit with Mid Row Banders. The move to one-pass seeding was critical for our operation to reduce
our input costs and labor requirements. In the end we were able to save on fuel and man hours with this system.”
Roger has been farming for over 45 years. He has seeded a variety of crops including wheat, duram, barley, canola,
beans, pintos, sunflowers, corn, and winter wheat. Roger also sits on the board of directors for the Dakota Pasta
Growers Co. Roger has over 10,000 acres logged on this seeding implement in the 2007 season.

“We looked at the competitor’s out on the market place, but they tend to leave the field
pretty rough. The Mid Row Banders leave a better field finish, and require relatively low
horsepower to pull them.”
“I liked the heavy duty rubber packers on the 8810. The mud doesn’t stick, and we have that
ability to adjust our packing pressure. The packers spread over a wider area than the poly
packers, and cover the seed row better.”

Excellent Flotation
The 8810 Culti-Drill is available with 10" spacing and
features heavy duty steel mounted on-row packers
which will provide similar packing characteristics to
an air drill, yet still provide the versatility of an 8810
cultivator.
Packer wheel options include: 2¼" steel, 3" and 4"
(5710 only) rubber capped steel (semi-pneumatic), and
5½" pneumatic.
These are the same 22" diameter packer wheels used
on the 5710 Air Hoe Drills. Packers are arranged in
small 4 or 5 wheel gangs. This provides even packing
on seed rows through hills, dips, or stones.
The 8810 Culti-Drill™ incorporates in-frame running gear. In wet
conditions, more weight can be transferred to the wheels to prevent
the castor wheels from diving into the mud. The walking in-frame
running gear is slightly biased to the back tire. This again helps
prevent the front wheel from dipping down in wetter conditions.
™
Adjustable Packing Pressure
The heavy-duty packer assemblies mounted on the
Titan™ arms can be adjusted to suit the seeding
conditions. Packing can be adjusted from 50 lbs to 80
lbs per wheel to match crop type and field conditions.
Dry seeding conditions will warrant heavier pressure
delivered to the packer wheels, whereas wetter
conditions will require less pressure.
Excellent Residue Clearance
The 8810 has five rows of shanks, mounted on a 10" spacing, with a
minimum of 40" distance between shanks on the same row. Special
consideration is given to clearance around the wheels within the frame
of the implement. The Mid Row Banders® are mounted on the front of
the frame, which cuts through the residue before it reaches the seed
openers. These features all help to provide a remarkable residue
clearance.
Direct Seed with Bourgault MRBs®
The 8810 Culti-Drill™ is designed to accommodate the Bourgault Mid
Row Bander® System for direct seeding applications. With the Mid
Row Banders® placing the nitrogen fertilizer between every second
seed row, producers can select a narrow seed opener to minimize soil
disturbance. One-pass seeding is achieved while maintaining current
moisture levels, and soil and seedbed quality, to create the ideal
growing environment. When nitrogen is not being applied, or the 8810
is required for a tillage application, the MRBs® can be parked up!

A Wide Range of Packer Options
Place Nitrogen in the Ideal Location in One-Pass
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 most beneficial and lowest risk one-pass
seeding system available.

Barry and his family continuous crop 7800 acres
near Yorkton, SK. “We have been using Mid
Row Banders on Bourgault drills now for over 10
years. Because of the amount of straw we see, the
MRBs provide the benefit of cutting through that
straw without plugging. This also saves time after
seeding, as we don’t have to harrow straw piles.”
“The placement of the fertilizer away from the
seed is excellent. We have no trouble from seed
burn from the nitrogen. We’ve done alot of acres
with the mid row banders, and have been very
happy with the performance.”

Benefits of Mid Row Banders
27
w w w. b o u r g a u l t . c o m
> Seedbed Integrity – MRBs coupled with narrow
seed openers provide a superior low disturbance
single-pass seeding system. Wider profile sidebanding openers create more disturbance, exposing
the seedlings to potential emergence problems
from seedbed fracturing, particularly in dry seeding
conditions.
> 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 other one-pass system can
offer this range of flexibility with the same degree of
safety.
> Seeding 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.
> 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.
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.
Se e d i n g
S y s t e m s
28
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.
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. A composite fiber selflubricating bushing with urethane seals and plastic thrust
washers pivots on a 1" diameter chrome pin.
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.
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 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
ammonium 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.
MRBs Reduce Risk
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.
MRBs Provide Superior Emergence
Third party research supports the fact of superior emergence when mid row banding
fertilizer. PAMI Report #768 “Emergence and Yield Comparison of Mid Row and
Side Banding Seeding/Fertilizer Systems” documents 216 pairs of emergence and
yield comparisons over a three year period. Of those 216 pairs, 42 pairs showed
significant difference in emergence, of which the mid row banded tests were
significantly higher in 33 of the 42 pairs! The ultimate goal of seeding is to achieve
the best emergence possible. With Bourgault MRBs, farmers have the best one-pass
seeding system to maximize emergence and minimize risk.

Industry Exclusive Flexible, Internal, Tank Design
Class A Straight-Thru Primary Line Design
The patented 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. In fact, the internal port design
allows seven different tank configurations (on the 4 tank models only) which can
be achieved in a matter of minutes.
The Class A Straight-Thru primary line design makes it very easy to direct the
contents of any tank compartment into any air stream. The operator is not
limited by the tank when determining what products and rates he needs for each
crop. At the end of day, tank clean-out is simple with an unobstructed drop into
the load/unload auger hopper. The flexibility offered by Bourgault Air Seeders is
unmatched in the market.

Cab Rate Adjust — CRA
The application rate can be adjusted for each
metering auger at the push of a button, on-the-go,
from the tractor cab. An electric actuator mounted on
each transmission remotely adjusts the rate setting
when activated by the operator. A second control
panel is located on the tank for convenient rate
changes during calibration.
Zone Rate Control — ZRC
Zone Rate Control allows for all metering augers to
be automatically adjusted to a preset rate by a single
control. Up to five different product application groups
can be preprogrammed by the operator. The operator
can now make a coordinated rate change with just a
click of one dial when crossing zone boundaries.

Tire Options that Work for You
Bourgault offers a tire for any soil type. Large
single, or dual tire options minimize compaction of
your fields. Correct tire loading is not only important
for reduced compaction, but also for safe operation
of the unit. Proper tire selection is key for problemfree operation in all seeding conditions.
Dual Fan Product Delivery System
Todays larger seeding systems require a large
volume of air for accurate and consistent product
rates. Bourgault utilizes a dual fan product delivery
system for double-shoot air kits to maximize
efficiency, simplify settings, and to minimize any
plugging problems.

In 1974, F.P. Bourgault Industries entered the market place with the first true
dual-purpose tillage unit. With this first product Bourgault Industries began
a legacy of agricultural equipment designed under the principles of ingenuity,
durability, and simplicity. The long history of tillage systems has evolved into
the most advanced and durable units available in the market place.
tillage
9400 Chisel Plow
Incredibly Effective Trip Design
The Bourgault legendary trip design
utilizes increasing force geometry to
penetrate hard soils.
As the soil gets tougher, the shanks
begin to tip back ever so slightly. This
increases the angle of attack of the
sweeps and improves their ability to
penetrate. As the trip springs extend,
the penetration force increases
dramatically. This increase in force
returns the shank/sweep to it’s original
position. The result is that Bourgault
tillage will penetrate ground the
competition barely scratches.
Durable Spring Trips
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
9800 Rigid Hitch Chisel Plow
proven that Bourgault’s trip will have
twice the life span of competitor’s
systems in normal operating
conditions! When maintenance is
required, the pivot bushings are easily
changed at a price of less than 1/10th
of some competitors’ units!
Dependable Hydraulics
Bourgault incorporates a masterslave hydraulic system for depth
control. A precision line lock valve
is incorporated to eliminate rebound
and to keep the series cylinders
locked during operation. Protection is
provided by an in-line filter mounted
on each master cylinder. The operator
can quickly set the operating depth of
the entire machine with the standard
Quick Shift single point depth control.
™
43
Dependable Running Gear
Quick and Easy to Level
Bourgault tillage utilizes extremely
durable hubs with the triple lip seals
pressed onto the spindle to prevent
seal damage from debris wrapping.
This seal allows bearings to be overpumped with grease without damage
to the seals. The leg style castor
wheels greatly reduces the effort
required in changing a tire.
Front-to-back adjustment is
quick and easy by adjusting the
screw jack that connects the
in-frame running gear to the
castor wheel (8810 & 9400).
Adjustment screws on top of
the depth control cylinders
allow side to side adjustment.
Wrenches are supplied and
fixed to the frame for easy
access.
Low Maintenance
Wherever possible, wear points are
protected with nylon, case hardened
steel, or composite components.
These features allow Bourgault
tillage systems to require less grease
locations and longer greasing intervals
than competitor’s systems.
w w w. b o u r g a u l t . c o m
8810 Cultivator
The 8810 design allows for the cultivator to be used as both a tillage unit and
as a seeding system. The clean and simple floating hitch design, has made
this tillage unit a mainstay throughout the small grain regions of North America.
Frames Designed for Outstanding Endurance
The 8810’s trip layout is designed to achieve unmatched trash clearance.
Design ensures good residue flow around the wheels. Distance is
maximized between adjacent rows and shanks.
The 8810 frame features five trip mount rows sandwiched between continuous
members running top and bottom the full depth of the frame. The deep profile
provides high strength and many years of trouble-free operation. The design
allows weight to be transferred throughout the frame to aggressively penetrate
compacted areas, providing uniform seed placement. Designed to tow large air
seeder tanks, tow fertilizer caddies, and mount MRBs .
Ti l l a g e
44
Maximum Residue with Minimum Effort
®
Minimized Contouring Depth
Research has proven that the ability to follow field contours is primarily related
to frame depth and wheel positioning. The 8810 has the shortest contouring
depth in the industry. The front castor 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.
Easy to Level
Front-to-back adjustment is performed by adjusting
the screw jack that connects the in-frame running gear
to the castor wheel. Adjustment screws on top of the
depth control cylinders allow side to side adjustment.

Model
Bourgault has refined the floating hitch design into today’s proven 12" spaced 9400 Series Floating Hitch Chisel Plow.
An experienced design team using the latest in computer solid modelling and stress analysis design software worked to
ensure the cleanest, most effective design. The 9400 has been evaluated over hundreds of hours in extreme conditions,
both at the factory and by a select group of demanding co-operators. Customer satisfaction and the high residual value
reflects a high degree of success. In fact, a 50% premium over other brands is common for used Bourgault chisel plows!
3-Point Frame to Hitch Attachment
The unique three point frame-to-hitch attachment is designed to more uniformly distribute the high
horsepower loads that today’s tractors can place on a machine. The hitch has also been designed extra long,
measuring 20' on five-plex models. Bourgault designers know that a long hitch increases stability for better
tracking in tough tillage conditions. Truss rod kits are also available when mounting a granular applicator tank
on the 9400 hitch.

Excellent Contour Depth
Research has proven that the ability to follow field contours is primarily related to frame depth and wheel
positioning. The 9400 has the shortest contouring depth in the industry. The front castor wheels are
positioned close to the front of the frame and the walking axles are centered in the frame. With this short
contour depth, the 9400 tills more evenly through the peaks and valleys and requires less horsepower to pull.

Model
Bourgault is confident in its claim that the 9800 Rigid Hitch Chisel Plow 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.

A Hitch Fit for the Job
Maximum Residue with Minimum Effort
The 9800 hitch consists of two 8" side beams
that attach near the hinge area to transfer heavy
draft loads, and a center beam which transfers all
fertilizer/air seeder cart loads to the tractor. 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 and hitch
adjustment.
The 9800 has a four row frame design with shank
spacings of 8", 10", 12" or 15". No other 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.
Unmatched Frame Strength
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
given unmatched frame strength.

Rigid Hitch Chisel Plow
Features for High Draft Operation
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 even
penetration of the ground engagement tools.

No other grain cart provides the same features as the 1100. The turret style unloading auger allows grain to be placed
accurately when cart to truck alignment is less than perfect. With a nearly horizontal turret unloading auger, the operator also
avoids the potential contact between the auger housing and grain truck. Superior flotation combined with the low hitch load
allows the operator to keep ahead of the combines and allows travel at 10 mph fully loaded. Eight flotation tires to carry the
load at a very low 19 P.S.I. The 1100 is the fastest grain cart in the field!
1 Eight flotation tires on a double walking axle assembly guarantees stability and allows
travel at 10 mph fully loaded.
6 Working lights are standard. Marker and signal lights help ensure safe transport.
2 Mesh windows located on the front and back panels show grain level. The operator
can also detect traffic when in transport for increased safety.
7 The unique turret style auger allows producers to place grain accurately and top the load
without riding the tractor clutch. Because of the near horizontal position of the auger,
there is virtually no chance of contact with the truck box.
3 Trap doors found on the underside can be opened quickly to empty the contents
through the 6" x 56" openings.
8 The efficient truss design is more than strong enough to take the 1100 bushel load
through wet fields and uneven terrain.
4 Lowest tank height for its size in the industry.
9 A unique belt drive system is used to engage the drag auger. The Soft Start system uses
a hydraulic actuated belt tensioner to ensure smooth operation.

Sowing the Seeds …
In 1969, Frank Bourgault was a 44 year old farmer and partner in the Massey Ferguson farm implement
dealership in St. Brieux, Saskatchewan, Canada. During his involvement with the implement dealership,
Frank earned a reputation as an excellent farm equipment mechanic. Through his experience, Frank learned
the strengths and weaknesses of the implements he worked on, and felt that he could provide a better
designed cultivator to overcome many of the shortcomings he saw. His goal was to produce an implement
that could do the job of both a chisel plow and a cultivator. By 1970, Frank had developed a prototype
model that was so well received, it convinced Frank, and his partners to go into production. F.P. Bourgault
Industries Ltd. was incorporated on May 4, 1973 and began production of the dual-purpose cultivators.
Frank Bourgault (at far right) working on a Bourgault cultivator.
Growth and Success…
Today, Bourgault Industries Ltd. has extensive production facilities at its headquarters in St.Brieux, Saskatchewan. Sales and
service for the U.S. is conducted from Minot, North Dakota. Offices in Armadale, Western Australia and Kiev, Ukraine manage
the company’s operations in each of their respective territories. With a wide range of agricultural products, and a strong
commitment to ingenuity, simplicity, and durability, Bourgault continues to aggressively pursue perfection in all of its endeavors.
