Michigan | I have a 1760. It's a great simple planter that you can customize as needed. Yes, you have to get out to fold but you also never have to worry about finicky fold boxes and blown 0-rings in the fold circuit hydraulic solenoid. Mine is the rigid model, I've heard the flex can have issues. For fertilizer, I run in-furrow and am also set up to dribble 28% behind my closing wheels. I'd run the same fertilizer setup on a new planter anyway. If you are 100% no-till then maybe you will have problems with this planter being too light for your conditions. I've never ran into this but I'm mostly conventional till. With full fertilizer tanks and full seed boxes it's not exactly light.
I've got mechanical v-set meters on my 1760 but when I ran e-sets on my old 1750 planter I only ever had a set of corn disks and a set of bean disks. Not sure why you'd need any more than that. | |
