What the Cirrus is used for
Cirrus is particularly suited to cereals established through min-till systems, where a grower wants front disc cultivation followed by drilling in one operation. It can help maintain work rates when autumn opportunities are limited and conditions are suitable.
Its role is primarily cereal establishment rather than a claim to suit every crop or direct-drilling situation. Match the drill to soil type, residue, previous cultivation and the desired seed-bed finish on each farm.
Why the Amazone Cirrus stands out
TwinTeC double-disc coulters support precise seed placement after the front disc cultivation stage. Available working widths from 3 to 9 m give the Cirrus substantial output potential for larger British arable units and contractors. Check that the cultivation, seeding and hydraulic systems work evenly across the full width.
Buying a used Amazone Cirrus
Inspect a used Cirrus closely for wear in the TwinTeC double-disc coulters, front cultivation discs, bearings, packer components, metering system, hopper, hydraulic pipes and folding sections. Check the drawbar and chassis for corrosion or repaired stress areas, and ask for serial details and a credible service record. Ensure all sections operate consistently before purchase and have it inspected where appropriate. Confirm figures and originality against TractorData.com and club records; values vary by condition, so check current listings rather than a fixed price.
