SE North Dakota | I don't mean to get off the subject but sounds like some knowledgeable people on the new white planters. I have a 2012 8524 that we installed the air bag system on for the down pressure. It seemed like the air bag system would give to easy when going up and down the field i felt but i don't know, first year with the planter. I also felt that I was getting such an inconsistant seed depth, some were down there and some were just laying in loose dirt. Seems like I could never make a very nice seed trench with out finding seed just all up and down in there. I was traveling about 4.5 to 5 mph, i didn't think this was too fast. My parallel arms were running from the main bar down hill a little bit back to the row unit. Is this the way those arms are supposed to be? My bar was level but the hitch appeared to run uphill a little bit towards the tractor. Maybe it was just the dry year we had but thought that my seed depth was all over the place. Wasn't sure if the air bags could have been moving more compared to springs. I was running 60lbs of air in them which was about 200lbs of down pressure which seems like alot. | |
