Not sure, but I thought that if you added weigh pins to more rows it would be better.

Tried that. Seemed like the system couldnt process that much info (24 rows). Was told by pp to disconnect rows until it worked.

How many pins could it run without slowing the system down?

How many spare pins do you want to keep on hand for when the junk SOB's go bad while you are planting?

Most of the systems I've sold run 6 load pins. 12 to 48 rows. More may be better for the wider planters. For most sitituations that is good. Pinch rows and rows running in tracks may need more and a side spring can be added. If a load pin is in a row needing more psi it will raise the average down pressure on the whole planter which is better than shallow planting

could you or others tell more what about using a side spring with a pin, I thought we were trying to get rid of pins. How good are these pins and are there many defective pins ? Is 10 or 12 pins on a 12 row over kill? How mamy pins can the 20/20 screen see?
