The TerrainFlex by Applequist Manufacturing, Inc was created to address issues with 30', 36', 40' and 42' three-section 1850, 1860, and 1890 Air Drills on uneven terrain. If you own one of these drills and you do contour farming, particularly with a lot of terraces, you’ve probably experienced the frame frequently lifting off the ground creating uneven down pressure. The factory rigid frame does not conform well with uneven terrain. This reduces the opener travel, resulting in uneven seed placement and poor stands. The rigid frame can also create stress points which can cause bolts and welds to break. Furthermore, the front caster wheels can begin to spin freely when they leave the ground, which can cause damage once the spinning wheels come back in contact with the ground. With the TerrainFlex Pivoting Walking Beam installed, the gauge wheels allow the wing frames to better follow the contours of the field. When the wheels have more contact with the ground, the results are less downtime due to machine breakdowns and a more consistent seed placement from the openers. The installation process is a 2-person job that typically takes around 3 hours. It involves the use of a skid steer or other loader. Installation requires removal of the gauge wheels from the factory beams and then removal of the factory beams from the frame, followed by installation of the new TerrainFlex walking beam onto the frame and then placing the gauge wheels onto the TerrainFlex.
