Available in 32- and 36-row options, producers can choose from four configurations equipped with either the new steerable Rowtrac™ Carrier System or traditional wheeled-carrier option. In addition to available track technology, the 2160 Early Riser planter features the factory integration of the industry’s most accurate planter technologies and an all-new rugged row unit designed for fast, uniform emergence at speeds up to 10 mph. “The 2160 Early Riser planter with steerable Rowtrac Carrier System provides up to 74 percent increased flotation over a wheeled carrier to reduce soil compaction,” said Tony McClelland, Case IH planter marketing manager. “With more square inches on the ground, toolbar weight is evenly distributed to improve planting performance in areas of the country, such as the Dakotas, with soft, loamy soils and/or wet planting conditions.”
“The unique undercarriage design of the Rowtrac Carrier System allows the tracks to uniformly minimize ground pressure, even in rolling terrain,” McClelland said. “The steerable undercarriage also provides excellent maneuverability during transport, especially in tight field entrances.” Highlights of the steerable Rowtrac Carrier System include:
High-efficiency Planting: Cover More Ground in Less Time The 2160 Early Riser planter continues the accuracy, durability and simplicity found throughout the 2000 series Early Riser lineup.
