Didn't see what size it was, but I had a 12-30 vert fold. If it sat outside at all folded up, check the bearings on the wings where the hex shaft is driven by the wheel. Engineers save a nickel and left that tube open with a bearing in the bottom of it. Water sets in the tube and has to go through the bearing. you know what happens next. also check all the bearings on the driveline. I went through mine and had it smooth enough that I could turn on the drum by hand and make the whole driveline turn. spacing was still fair at best even with all that effort. Otherwise good planter just needs to be kept up.
