Seed drill NAC S12-K 12 L hopper, 450 mm working width

NAC S12-K is a compact seed drill with a 12-liter hopper and a 450 mm working width designed for precise sowing of small seeds. The unit provides controlled seed metering and placement for garden plots, small farms, and hobby growers. Its compact dimensions suit narrow beds and easy handling, enabling efficient planting of a variety of small-seed crops.

Advantages

The seed drill offers accurate seed distribution and consistent sowing depth thanks to its calibrated metering mechanism and low-profile seed outlet. Its 12-liter hopper reduces the need for frequent refilling while keeping overall weight low for easier manual use. The 450 mm working width allows operation in narrow rows and small beds, increasing manoeuvrability in confined spaces. Construction materials and design focus on straightforward maintenance and long-term reliability in light agricultural and garden use.

Suitable for

• Sowing small seeds such as lettuce, carrot, onion, and similar vegetable seeds
• Planting in raised beds, narrow garden rows, and small plots
• Hobby farms, allotments and small-scale market gardens
• Precision sowing where even spacing and depth control are required

Key specifications

• Hopper capacity: 12 litres
• Working width: 450 mm
• Seed metering: calibrated mechanical metering mechanism for small seeds
• Construction: compact, low-profile design suitable for narrow beds
• Intended use: manual and small-scale mechanical sowing of small-seed crops

How to use

Fill the 12-litre hopper with seeds appropriate for the calibrated metering mechanism. Adjust the metering setting according to seed size and required spacing, then position the seed drill over the intended row or bed. Move the unit along the planting line at a steady pace to ensure even seed delivery and consistent depth. Periodically check seed flow and hopper level, and clear any blockages from the outlet before continuing. After use, empty remaining seeds and clean seed passages to prevent clogging and seed damage.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use cleaned, uniformly sized seeds and test sow a short section to verify spacing and depth before completing the full bed. Maintain the metering mechanism by removing debris after each session and store the seed drill in a dry place to protect components from corrosion and wear.
