And that's the primary reason why there was so little video this year of me planting. Then there was the oil and grease from the chain on my hands stopping me from touching my camera☹ Stupid chain problem🤔 Tim, thanks for watching.🙂☕
I have JD, IH, Massey Ferguson, and Ford on this little farm. They all have good parts and bad parts..That Ford of yours is a swell tractor I hope lift issues are simple to fix. Your perseverance with the planter will pay off.. and.. God is good...all the time!!!
That little Ford tractor of mine has its good days and its bad days. I know that's got to sound strange but it relates to what I'm actually doing with the tractor. The Ford hydraulic pressure is not as high as that little John Deere 1020 and will not create as much lift pressure. The lift on the Ford will not come up fast enough to snap the row markers into the locked position. They work real good on that little John Deere once cousin gets the chain length dialed in. Thank you very much for being here watching videos supporting this channel. And yes I agree 100% God He is always good, the same yesterday the same today the same tomorrow always good. 🙏🙏🙏🙂
Sorry for the frustrations but thank you for helping anyone with these #71 units how to adjust depths along with depth bans. God has a reason when we are tested.
My friend my natural OCD State of Mind kicked in and I became even more determined I was going to find the knowledge and gain the understanding so there was no quit. Always good to find you here in the comments and I hope things are going well for you and your family.🙂☕
Gary, thank you very much my friend the information in that Manuel opened my eyes making it possible for me to see what Johnny Holland was trying to convey to me. Thank you thank you and thank you again🙂☕
It's a great product and works well when used as directed. www.amazon.com/Loctite-1329467-Medium-Strength-Threadlockers/dp/B009I2UC3Q/ref=asc_df_B009I2UC3Q/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693270349614&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=12762410012769163853&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9009721&hvtargid=pla-312799887038&psc=1&mcid=285eca7fcac73563b484da0123806ca9&gad_source=1 Thanks for bringing this back to my memory.
Herb, that is a fact and now the next thing I need to gain an understanding for is how to adjust the clutch on my 4020 tractor. I do not have enough free play at the top of the pedal and fortunately cousin showed me there's still about a half inch of adjustment left in the slot so this may be something I can adjust once I figure out exactly how. Thanks for being here watching supporting this channel. 🙂☕
Glad you are learning the planters. Now you can understand the relation of the tool bar gage wheels and depth setting cams. That information that gentleman sent you was a God send. The written word as they say. As far as the chain coming off if you can find them there is a mechanical device that if I remember correctly attaches to the gear shaft on the side of the planter that consists of a "flagging" device that as the shaft turns bobs up and down indicating the chain is on. They will drive you crazy looking back to see if they are all moving. I used to run them on an eight row planter. It was an early attempt at a seed "monitoring" devise. I think once you have it all figured out you will enjoy the job these planters will do.
His name is Gary Clayton and his comment is up above this one in the list of comments. The document he sent to me opened my eyes to what you were explaining once I had that picture I began to see how it worked. Johnny thank you so much for the information you gave to me making it possible for me to go down this unknown path and arrive at the solution I was Desiring. I'm going to check into this little flag thing, Dragging this planter and having a row not being planted is unacceptable. Johnny thank you for being here helping me🙂☕
I’ve ask God to help me understand stuff like that a lot. Glad you hung in there and finished it with the same planter. Enjoyed the video thanks for sharing.
This is one of my anchor scriptures allowing me to believe I can actually ask God for wisdom. Phi 4:6 KJV Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Thank you very much for watching and being here supporting this channel. 🙂☕
It feels good to actually understand how something works I remember the first great satisfaction from this farming adventure was gaining an insight as to what the inside of my combined was actually doing. Robert thank you very much for your continued support of this channel 😊☕
Always nice when someone sends you the information you need!!! Bruce Niday (Niday Homestead) Was my go to guy!!! Unfortunately, he passed away over a month ago 😥 he was very knowledgeable and always very helpful!! Good friend too... Always appreciate advice! Good job.. I believe cousin Scott said it, should have used a John Deere..lol
It's great when you got someone like that in your life, a go to for knowledge and help in your time of need, Jesse was that kind of person for me. I'm still kicking myself for passing up on a 70 horsepower John Deere about 15 years ago. ☹ Thanks for dropping by the channel Ed. 🙂☕
You know when you were saying I asked God and I was thinking he was going to tell you look it up on the Internet lol but I’m glad you got it all working it might be an interesting project this winter just to disassemble it clean it all up maybe paint it so it’s all good for next year
I was pushed for time because of the rain that was scheduled to arrive so I did not do the cleanup job on these parts I really wanted to do so now that we are out of the jam and finished planting for the year 2022 crop the idea of going back and taking this apart then really cleaning those parts good, polishing them so they would take a nice smooth coat of protective paint is sounding real good to me. Thanks for being here watching supporting this channel my friend 🙂☕
@@SoybeanFarmer3300 I’m just laughing my mind now to thinking about that that would’ve been pretty funny maybe were thinking it’s time for some practical jokes
Brother, I love your channel. I like you southern accent, the old tractors and implements, and the fact you smoke stoggies. BUT....Your videos are not long enough. Dog gone it, I get involved with watching and you explaining and BAM it stops. I know that editing is a pain in the patookus, but you have a few viewers who would love to see some longer vids, even if its just you driving through the fields. Heck, from what you've shown your fields are on the smallish size which makes for an intimate setting. Walk around the fields and show them off like a prized milking cow at the county fair. Lets see how high your crops have grown, lets see the ground, how your keeping the weeds from the edge of the fields, you tinkering with other implements. Man, you've got a lot of knowledge about breaking ground, seeding, fertilizing, etc.....lets see it. Love you, Brother and I how your crops grow tall and are very bountiful!! God bless.
Tynyyn, thank you very much for sharing these thoughts and recommendations with me. Thank you for your kind words and thank you for your support of this channel.🙂☕
I'm glad I put my gmail address under the about Channel tab and I'm glad Gary thought to look there to make contact. One of the things God has told me repeatedly, it pleases Him greatly when we love and help one another.🙂
One day my friend, you and that planter are going to have a great working relationship 😁😁👍 Amazing people out there, so glad you got the info you needed to figure your depth!! I love the high speed while tapping with the hammer! My friend that day you had with frustration is how my month has been it seems 😢😢 Hope you are doing better with the health issues 🙏🙏🙏🙏 You two are always there for each other during tuff times, that's what family is for!! 🙏🙏🙏😁😁👍👍 Yes sir always, enjoy every min of it my friend!! Thank you for bringing us along, for all the good and the bad days!!
Nelson my friend thank you for being here to bring along on these Adventures. This depth issue on this planter was chewing on my last nerve. my OCD kicked into overdrive and I was determined to find out how this thing worked. I'm positive now praying and asking God for help is How Gary ended up sending me that PDF file and how Johnny Holland kept on repeating himself and sharing his knowledge with me. Friends here in this UA-cam family of farmers, no way to put a value on them they are priceless🙂 so I will continue to thank God for them and their kindness to me. Thanks for watching here my friend 🙂 ☕
be glad your not in my shoes next year when i try to plant with a brand new setup with all the tech bells and whistles. I am already goin to school on it lol and we will learn some but not near enough i am sure lol
It is a lot easier to get technical support on current technology than it is to get support for something that's 53 years old. For example the clutch on the 4020 is engaging at the top of the pedal, not enough free play my first thought was my clutch is wore out so I called John Deere looking to get an idea of what it would cost to have them replace the clutch they have still not called me back and that was 4 days ago. But praise God I mentioned it to cousin and he showed me how I still got about a half inch of adjustment left now we just have to figure out how to do it. Always nice to find you here in the comments AJ🙂☕
@@SoybeanFarmer3300 well at least you can fix your older things with wrenches. But i do get what you mean on the tech . equipment dealers seem to only care about Big AG these days
Glad you got this machine figured out. Sometimes it just takes some patience and talking to people to learn what you need to learn. Sometimes I think God puts these obstacles in our path so that we WiLL learning something.
satan is the obstacle putter and my God is the one who keeps on explaining and reexplaining to me how to defeat the obstacles. Thank you God for your unending Mercy's! 🙏🙂
Some type of pneumatic air chisel driver would have been real Handy on that job those things were tightly rust welded together. Thank you very much for being here supporting the channel by watching the videos.🙂
My Dad always called a screwdriver that you beat on a chisel driver. We had some good old ones that had steel heads that would really take a beating. I do enjoy your channel!
The jury is still out on that and since we have finished planting for this year a little more experimentation is going to be required next year to make that determination but I can say at this point I believe I have nailed the depth issue. Beans planted last Saturday were up yesterday on Wednesday that's about the normal amount of time when the depth is correct. Thank you very much for being here watching videos supporting this channel. 😊☕
A good way to make sure your planter is putting out seed at the end when you turn around look and you will see seed on top of the ground where you picked up if not you got a problem that’s my monitor
You are correct I've noticed that seed at the end row some of the rows are kind of long and I'd like to have a more confident feeling I hadn't just left an empty unplanted row. It was an outside unit I was having the difficulty with so there's more than likely places out there where I've got a 48 inch wide space between the rows. We'll find out after it sprouts what we got. 🤔
Psa 35:27 KJV Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.

Greg thank you very much for what you said here and yes without God nothing goes right and life is just a struggle.
I have found that there is a lot of things you have to keep an eye on when planting. My God bless you.
And that's the primary reason why there was so little video this year of me planting. Then there was the oil and grease from the chain on my hands stopping me from touching my camera☹
Stupid chain problem🤔
Tim, thanks for watching.🙂☕
Thanks for sharing that information on Cousin Scott's planter. Take care.
I hope it'll be out there on UA-cam for someone and make their life easier later on.
I have JD, IH, Massey Ferguson, and Ford on this little farm. They all have good parts and bad parts..That Ford of yours is a swell tractor I hope lift issues are simple to fix. Your perseverance with the planter will pay off.. and.. God is good...all the time!!!

A little bit of lock-tight thread adhesive on the bolts will keep the depth bands from falling off.
It's a great product and works well when used as directed.
