Parker Seed Chariot Seed Tender Lineup Expanded
The Parker Seed Chariot seed tender lineup expands with the new model 3620R with a longer 21’ conveyor for filling the tallest central-fill planters and drills with ease. The split compartment tank is ideal for hauling multiple seed varieties with a combined capacity of 360 seed units.
The extra-long 21’ conveyor provides fast, yet gentle unloading with its 36” of added conveyor length to reach the tallest planters. With 180-degrees of pivoting, the downspout reaches up to 40’ for filling individual planter seed boxes. The winch-operated height adjustment provides over 5’ of range between highest and lowest unloading position.
All 3620R Parker Seed Chariot tenders feature an 8” tubular style conveyor with cupped and cleated belt constructed from woven polyester fibers and PVC coating for long life and unloading speeds of up to 25 bushels per minute. A rubber-lined conveyor discharge hood further protects seed quality. The conveyor features a tool-free removable lower panel for quick cleanout between varieties and vinyl hopper cover for keeping the conveyor inlet clean during road transport.
It is powered by an industrial-grade gasoline engine with electric start for easy operation and centrifugal clutch direct-drive system for the quickest conveyor response and added reliability. All controls are housed in a weather-tight compartment located on the driver’s side for convenient operation.
For transport reliability the 3620R features a tri-axle undercarriage with 7,000 lb. capacity torsion axles and new 235/85 x 16 highway-rated tires with electric braking on all axles for added stopping power. The standard transport chains, reflective striping, tail, turn and running lights promote safer on-road transport.
With steep slopes, complete tank cleanout is assured between crops and varieties. Tank components are finished with a two-part urethane enamel in dove gray and all undercarriages and conveyor parts are powder-coated in midnight gray for added durability. All welded seams are sealed with silicone for added corrosion resistance. A standard roll-over tarp keeps contents clean and dry.
An Optional Dinamica scale package is available with auto conveyor shut off for the most accurate weight information, load after load. It can be programmed to dispense a specified quantity of seed per box and automatically shuts off the conveyor to maximize seed use. Additional options include 4’ flexible downspout and 10’ three-stage telescopic downspout to match individual needs; electric-operated winch for easily controlling unloading height, a wireless two-function conveyor remote and T&G applicator for applying seed lubricants.
