2026 Vaderstad Spirit 600-900S 600S

The pneumatic seed drill Spirit 600-900S is available in 6, 8 or 9 metre working widths. It is a universal seed drill for high capacity drilling in conventional and minimum tillage. Spirit 600-900S is equipped with innovative solutions that increases the precision and simplifies the operations at the farm.

The pneumatic seed drill Spirit carries out levelling, seedbed preparation, reconsolidation, seeding and pressing in one pass. It is known to provide impressive precision at high working speeds on the field. Thanks to the individual row depth control, Spirit always places the seed at the intended seeding depth. You benefit from an even emergence over the entire field.

Features may include:

Spirit 600-900S is equipped with the high precision metering system Fenix II that provides a constant and reliable seed metering. The strong motor permits high seed rates at high speed. Additionally, the integrated fan runs at low speed, resulting in minimized fuel consumption and quiet operation. Its high location reduces the dust intake, thereby increasing drilling accuracy.

To minimise downtime in the field, Spirit has a high capacity 5000 litre seed hopper. The hopper is very easy to fill due to its large opening with a roll-up cover operated from the ground. With two platforms and an open machine design, you benefit from good access to all components throughout the machine.

To ensure an even seed depth also in hilly terrain and at varying soil types, Spirit 600-900S is equipped with an active seed coulter pressure. Sensors in the hydraulic system immediately registers if Spirit is located on a crest or a trough. If so, automatic valves directly compensates for an increased or decreased pressure. Thereby the seed coulter pressure is kept at a constant pre-set value, irrespective of which working angle the seed coulters are in, relative to the rest of the machine. The result is an impressive seed placement and an even emergence over the entire field.

The distributor heads are placed in a high position. This keeps the seed hoses at the perfect angle even in hilly terrain, this ensures a perfect distribution over the entire working width.

When lifting or lowering the seed drill at the headland, the automatic sequence control lifts or lowers the working zones one by one. When entering the field the system makes sure the front tool is lowered into the soil before the seed coulters and the following harrow. By optimising this automatic lifting and lowering sequence, the seeding accuracy is enhanced at the headlands. This system makes it possible to drill the headland first, without disrupting the result when drilling the rest of the field.

The seed is metered out via two distributor heads, this enables the driver to conduct half machine shut-off directly from the driver seat, optimising tramlining without double seeding. On irregular fields, this section shut-off offers great opportunities for extra savings. Farmers who regularly use half machine shut-off appreciate the fact that they can save up to 5 % seed and fertiliser, at the same time allowing the crop the best start possible.

The dynamic tramlining function makes tramlining simpler and more reliable than ever before. The function is easy to setup with the iPad-based control system Väderstad E-Control. When seeding the field, the seed drill automatically shuts off specific rows when needed to match the tire tracks of the sprayer.
