1 Active Implement Guidance Interface Solutions POSITION ANY IMPLEMENT WITH PRECISION AND REPEATABILITY! PLUG AND PLAY!

2 Why GPS or camera tractor guidance benefits are recognized by farmers around the world.while ensuring repeatable tractor positioning, it highlights that implements never trail perfectly behind the tractor. This prevents farmers from achieving the full potential of precision farming. Reasons for implements inability to follow the tractor accurately : Slopes Flat fields - implements can drift laterally due to: Uneven soil condition across implement working width Unsymmetrical pull due to implement configuration benefits: Position any implement with precision and repeatability to benefit from precision farming practices generating: is a key link between the active implement guidance system and the implement by adjusting its lateral position. It guarantees a high level of accuracy for the implement. It operates with any brand of Active Implement Guidance providing correction instructions. - Higher yields - Improved productivity - Operational savings - Reduced operator fatigue - Reduced inputs by eliminating overlap of fertilizer, seed, chemical and tillage operations

3 With The field you DREAMED OF is NOW REALITY!

4 Ideal for pulled / semi-mounted implement Simple and economical What customers say: Top productivity! I can run higher ground speeds and cover more acres in a day with my sprayer because the row is true and I can trust my guidance to keep the sprayer off the crop Great accuracy! Eliminates guess rows! I don t have any issues running a 12 row corn head and a 16 row planter because the rows are uniformly spaced pass to pass Worth it! This is truly a solution that pays you back all year long because of its accuracy in keeping the planter where it should be Very efficient! It makes the process of growing seed corn easier with multiple passes across a field and equipment matching up to rows (male rows are planted later than female rows, multiple sprayer passes, mechanical detassler pass, mowing down male rows) Gives me flexibility! Allows me to strip till and plant between my cover crop rows and be able to terminate at a later date.

5 The universal guidance interfaces you ve been waiting for! VERSATILE GUIDED HITCH, COMPATIBLE WITH : Pulled, semi-mounted and carried implements no need to purchase a specific, costly implement Tractors equipped with an active implement guidance system PTO driven implements (DynaTrac Ultima) BRINGS ACTIVE IMPLEMENT GUIDANCE BENEFITS TO ALL IMPLEMENTS: Economical no need to buy an interface for each implement (cultivator, planter, ridger, bedder, sprayer, etc.) Simple only one software and interface to handle. Same standard software as for pulled implements Profitable reap precision farming benefits at each stage of the crop: Tillage (strip-till, bedder, etc.) Planting (place row precise to guidance line, enjoy uniform row spacing pass to pass) Row crop cultivation (less crop damage, better mechanical weed control) Interseeding (seed between cover crop rows or seeding into growing crop) Slurry application (slurry tanker) Spraying (less overlap, less crop damage, higher ground speeds to cover more acres in a day) Side dressing (precision fertilizer placement in the root zone) Drip irrigation Harvesting (less crop loss from pushing the row with the header and no need to match planter and header width) Universal ideal for all crops: Fruits / Vegetables High value crops (potatoes, sugar beets, peanuts, etc.) Row crops Small grains (wheat, rice, etc.) Forage

6 What makes LAFORGE DynaTrac Premium & Ultima universal and efficient? DynaTrac Premium & Ultima have an exclusive design that retains all the functionalities of a tractor rear 3-point hitch. Allowing it to easily, precisely and repeatedly locate the implement according to the GPS signal Free vertical float 3 When on side hill, the lower side tire deflects more that the upper side tire. Consequently, the tractor is no longer parallel to the ground. DynaTrac vertical float allows implement to follow ground contour Sway control cylinder: Free sway at work with 3-point implement Lock during transport and with 2-point implement Cylinder operation is easily managed with automated tractor sequences 2 Free lower arm sway is a patented feature, decoupling the implement motion from the tractor: 4 Feed back sensor Avoid side load on implement no damage to the implement nor implement getting locked in the ground Better steering response of the tractor and better handling of slope / curve than a rigid version Perfect implement trailing. Tractor positioning corrections do not impact trailing Ensure accurate positioning
