Sky EasyDrill

What the EasyDrill is used for

EasyDrill suits cereal and oilseed rape establishment in direct-drilling and min-till systems, particularly where growers aim to reduce soil disturbance and retain surface residue. Its single-disc coulter arrangement is intended for placing seed in these lower-disturbance establishment approaches.

The 3 to 6 m working-width range is well suited to British farms seeking a manageable trailed drill for varied fields. Seed and fertiliser placement gives it relevance where a grower wants both materials applied in the same drilling pass.

Why the Sky EasyDrill stands out

The EasyDrill stands out for combining direct and min-till capability with single-disc coulters and seed-and-fertiliser placement. Its trailed 3 to 6 m format suits many British reduced-tillage programmes. Buyers should judge disc wear, bearings, seed pipes and metering condition carefully, as these items directly influence drilling consistency and downtime.

Buying a used Sky EasyDrill

Inspect single-disc coulters, bearings, scrapers, depth-control components and closing parts for wear or free play. Check the seed and fertiliser delivery routes, hopper condition, metering units and all pipes for corrosion, blockage or damage. Test fan and hydraulic functions, including folding where applicable, and look over the drawbar and frame for cracks or repairs. Have it inspected if in doubt. Confirm figures and originality against TractorData.com and club records; values vary by condition, so check current listings rather than a fixed price.

Sky EasyDrill frequently asked questions

Is the Sky EasyDrill a direct drill?

Yes. It is specified as a direct and min-till seed drill, making it relevant to growers moving away from more intensive cultivation. Field conditions, residue levels and soil type should guide whether direct drilling is appropriate.

What coulter type does the Sky EasyDrill use?

The verified specification gives single-disc coulters. Their condition is important on a used drill, so check discs, bearings and associated depth-control parts carefully and establish whether wear is even across the full width.

What working widths are offered for the Sky EasyDrill?

The EasyDrill is specified with working widths from 3 to 6 m. Buyers should select within that range according to field size, tractor capability, transport arrangements and the desired balance between daily output and manoeuvrability.

Specifications are commonly cited figures for general reference; exact figures vary by model, coulter and configuration, so confirm against the manufacturer and dealer. Working widths and dimensions are metric. Match the drill or planter to your establishment system, soil and tractor. Page updated 19 Sep 2026.
