Crawfordsville, Arkansas | Trying to finish up a field today before the rain starts in the morning and only had a few more rounds left in the short rows when the monitor says row 32 is plugged. This is what I found.
Deere has 5 of them in the warehouses. Local dealers have none. One somewhat local dealer shows to have one so I will call and hopefully head there first thing in the morning.
So what caused this to break? Both sides are snapped clean in almost the same spot. The field was nice and smooth. Didn't hit anything. Hardly any downpressure also. The break was shiny and not rusty so it was a new break. It's a 2009 model planter but was only a 400 acre demo when we bought it 2 years ago. I've put around 5000 acres on it.
