2160 New Configurations:

Introducing new configurations to the Early Riser 2160 planter, now available in both 48-row 20-inch and 22-inch options for the narrow row cropping practices. This advanced planter combines industry-leading accuracy with cutting-edge technology to optimize planting efficiency across diverse field conditions.

Other 2000 Early Riser Planter Series Changes:

• Optional spoked gauge wheels
• Optional notched closing disks
• All planters receive a new high-wear parallel linkage bushing for increased wear life
• All planters come equipped with internal and external opener disk scrapers to reduce soil buildup
• All models include a new vDrive 2.0 motor with streamlined control harness routing
• Premium wing and mainframe tire packages are standard on all 2130 planter configurations
• The 2150 and 2150S planters now include a new frame valve that improves planter lift times for quicker in-field turns

The Early Riser 2150S front-fold trailing planter provides the agronomic benefits of split-row planting with greater in-field productivity.

• A fertilizer capacity of 525 gallons with 100 bu. of seed capacity maximizes in-field productivity while individual tank scales provide easy, even filling.
• In-cab hydraulic row unit lift control allows operators to easily convert from 15- to 30-inch spacing.
• Exclusive, industry-leading offset row unit design helps increase residue flow with minimal plugging opportunities.
• Exceptional ground-following capabilities are made possible by 30 degrees of total wing flexibility, while the hydraulic wing downforce option improves depth control.
• Also available in a 24-row with 20-inch spacing configuration

Testing proves our industry-leading Early Riser planter row unit is where speed, precision and performance meet. It delivers on the critical agronomic drivers necessary to ensure the perfect seed placement: uniform seed depth in all conditions, good seed-to-soil contact, uniform soil pressure around the seed, accurate in-row spacing and population.

Watch this video to learn how the Early Riser row unit is designed for superior agronomic performance.

To achieve the perfect picket fence stand, you need a seed meter capable of delivering accurate and consistent seed singulation, populations and in-row spacing. The seed meter and electric drive at the heart of the 2000 series Early Riser planter row unit do just that. And it does it at your speed.

2000 Series Early Riser Planters are equipped with bulk-fill tanks to provide reliable seed delivery — no matter the seed population. The 2160, 2150S, 2150 and 2140 models feature two bulk-fill tanks, up to 120-bushel combined tank capacity depending on the configuration, and the 2130 model features one 50-bushel tank.

Optional 3.0 or 1.9-bushel on-row individual hoppers are available on all 2110, 2120, 2130 and 2150 models.

Extend your planting window with the 2000 series Early Riser planter Rowtrac™ Carrier System currently available as a factory-installed option. With increased flotation over a wheeled carrier, this system reduces compaction and improves yield potential in wet spring conditions. Providing better maneuverability in wet fields with transport steering and excellent stability on uneven terrain with fore-aft track oscillation, the Case IH Rowtrac carrier system maximizes productivity.

Many components of our 2000 series Early Riser planters – including the metering system and row unit settings – provide tool-free crop changes and adjustments. Plus, we’ve eliminated all the mechanical components – hex shafts, bearings, couplers, sprockets, chains and clutches – needed to turn a conventional planter. Fewer things to go wrong means reduced, simpler maintenance.
