Thanks for the info, its much appreciated.
Couple more questions I thought of,
Can you raise and lower the planter on the go, or do you need to be stopped?
I noticed my neighbor that has a JD 7000 stops before he raises and stops before he lowers the planter. He said its easier on the planter. - My dad has always done that too mainly because it's easier to drop and pick up the planter exactly where he wants it every time if he's stopped. We plant with a 12 row 7200 and 4850
On the planter there are 2 field cultivator shanks with spikes , mounted up front. Right in front of the outside tires. Anyone have any ideas what the purpose of those would be? Not sure what those are
This would be the first year of using the 4440 to plant, some say to pull the duals off to avoid "pinch" rows. Yes, no? Leave the duals on.
