    So I have been on this earth for over 50 years now. In my time here I have had the opportunity not only to work on many types of equipment, but also work with many people over the years. It has been my experience that the most kind, hard working genuine people come from farming and working the land. I don't mean to take away from the non farmers, but if I could pick someone to have my back it would be good people like this. I have said this before but thank you for all your hard work! 🤟🥰

    Grant, you was asking about removing the lift assist and moving the tanks forward on the planter. Does your tractor has the lift capacity to lift the planter with the tanks fully full if you take the assist off? Maybe that is why the planter has lift assist.

Thanks for making farming interesting.

  • @christopherbunn1485
    @christopherbunn1485 2 роки тому +18

    A lot of solid engineering went into designing and building the tank and lift wheel configuration you don’t like. You should try it before you think about re-engineering it all. You might see the wisdom after you have some experience with it. You have enough to worry about in the short run just getting the row units running. As a general rule, don’t bite off more than you can chew: You are in the business of farming. Designing planters and other major equipment is a job for John Deere (and their worthy experienced competitors). It’s admirable how farmers think they can tackle anything and they are often right. But marshal your resources including time. If you really want a planter with a different tank and wheel arrangement, it probably makes sense to sell this one and buy one that is designed more to your liking.

    • @guydaubenspeck9206
      @guydaubenspeck9206 2 роки тому

      I'm a pretty small farmer compared to you guys. In 2007 I bought a four row 7000 plateless, from the neighbor here that deals and equipment and we rebuilt it and updated it to precision meters and a fine piece of equipment, we pull ours or the red tractor Case IH LOL but we really like it. It's been a good planner the updates have made it even better but I learned at that time how to set the gauge wheels and set the disc openers and so on ours is conventional and valuable lessons I'll never forget.

  • @patklemmensen1694
    @patklemmensen1694 2 роки тому +4

    myself, I would leave the tank where it is, lift-wheels and all; it makes a bigger 'footprint', but that same footprint gives you a bit more room to work in when stuff has to be fixed or maintained... an engineer designed the planter that way FOR A REASON, and he (or she) probably consulted with mechanics, farmers, and fabricator throughout every step of the process... you probably COULD put the tank above the planting wheels, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea.

  • @rogerholmquist3646
    @rogerholmquist3646 2 роки тому +23

    As for your central commodity system(seed tank) you'll have to make brackets for the planter bar to mount them on...keep in mind you will transfer a LOT of weight by doing this. As for your fertilizer lines you can get an aftermarket pro pump to run from your tanks to the lines...if your lines are plumbed right. You'll also need to get a good rate controller monitor for the cab.

    • @markblackwood3121
      @markblackwood3121 2 роки тому +3

      I will second the weight shift! Taking time to calculate is a smart recommendation. Having liquid fertilizer tanks at front can partially offset but remember they are not full all the time. Good luck

  • @h2recoveryteam2
    @h2recoveryteam2 2 роки тому +3

    Very impressed Laura. On the intro to your planter. You sound like a farmer that knows what is going on. Not just told this is the issues. I have watched you over a year now. I see you growing in so many ways. I know that we do not know each other in real life. It is just nice to see folks yours and Grants age applying yourself and not wanting hand outs or things handed to you. You do work hard and it shows in many ways.

  • @WorkingManOutdoors
    @WorkingManOutdoors 2 роки тому +3

    I don't think you can move your tanks due to how the planter folds and stacks. I think JD designed it this way for a reason. Might want to just go with it.

    Part of mud build up is from distants between gauge wheel & disk. Gauge wheel can be adjusted by moving shims on arms. Gauge wheels should be just touching to a small gap. I have many years with this type of row unit planting sugar beets, soybeans & edible beans. Lot of maintenance but work well.
