Pneumatic-powered Planter Seed-Box Lid Lifters are designed to expedite filling or seed level checking tasks by allowing all the row-unit lids to be opened simultaneously with the turn of a knob. Each lifter's latching mechanism locks the lid down until released to prevent losing the lid during transport and planting. The lifters reportedly fit most planter models with individual boxes. (Small pneumatic power source required, but can also be manually operated.)
