The Sure Stand Concept
The Brillion Sure Stand Concept has survived the test of time and the challenges from many competitors and many different seeding methods. However, the simplicity of the Sure Stand Concept is still the best way to seed turf and grasses efficiently. The larger front notched roller firms the seedbed and puts shallow indentations into the soil surface. The seed is delivered from the seed boxes to free fall onto the deflectors. The deflectors spread the seed across the full width of the seeder for a broadcast style of seeding. The smaller rear roller, with its notches splitting the middle of the front indentations, squeezes the soil around the seed for ultimate seed to soil contact and consistent seed placement. That’s the Sure Stand Concept.
Models Available
Landscape Series – LSP5, LSP6 & LSS6
The 5’ and 6’ LSP and LSS Seeders are the smallest of the Landscape Seeders. These units use blade agitator seed meters that accommodate a wide variety of landscape seeds. The three-inch meter spacing provides an excellent distribution of seed across the full width of the seeder. The LSP5 and LSP6 models are three-point hitch models, while the LSS6 comes standard with both a three-point hitch and a skid loader adaptor plate. These models are ideal for compact tractors and maneuvering into tight corners.

The Turfmaker Series raises the bar on the precision seeding of small grass seeds. A large seed box capacity along with narrow meter spacing and the micro-meter adjustment gives this series of seeders the edge.

Turfmaker III Series
