I planted thousands of acres with a 7000 then a 1750 with that style of drive, never had any problems, something has to be worn or out of line. The few times a chain did come off was a corn stalk caught in chain. I did have the optional shields on both planters,made a big difference.
Are the shields you are referring to number 3 in the picture....it says they are used with a furrower.
I have trouble keeping a chain on with my bean splitter planter that runs in standing corn stalks.
