Manufacturer’s Original Specifications:

The following data represents the general engineering standards for the Case International 5500 Mulch-Till. As a used unit, condition is as is, where is and may require general maintenance.

• Drill Type: Pull-type mulch-till (designed to handle higher residue than standard grain drills).
  
• Row Spacing: Typically configured for 7.5″, 10″, or 15″ (Soybean Special) spacings; this is a 30′ folding model.
  
• Opener Design: Parallel-linkage row units with offset double-disc openers.
  
• Folding: Hydraulic front-fold or wing-fold design (dependent on specific sub-model).
  
• Metering: Ground-driven or hydraulic drive metering (this unit features a replaced meter shaft).
  
• Down Pressure: Adjustable spring or hydraulic down pressure to maintain consistent depth in mulch-till conditions.
  

Ideal for: Soybean and small grain producers looking for a high-capacity, one-pass seeding solution. The 5500 Mulch-Till was engineered to bridge the gap between a conventional drill and a no-till planter, providing the ruggedness needed to slice through crop residue while maintaining the narrow spacing required for high-yield canopy closure.

The Case IH Advantage: The 5500 series is built on the same “Early Riser” DNA found in Case IH planters, utilizing a heavy-duty frame and a parallel-linkage system that ensures every row unit follows the contour of the field independently. The addition of a 1,000-gallon liquid fertilizer system with individual row monitoring makes this a high-value tool for growers looking to place nutrients exactly where the plant needs them during the seeding pass. With the markers included and the seed meter shaft recently serviced, this drill is a robust choice for the upcoming planting season.
