The distance was sort of arbitrary. On the John Deer drill that I normally calibrate, it is approximately 20 rotations of the drive wheel. Having said this, the TABLE that is used to determine the amount of seed to catch is based on 150 ft. So if you are using the table instead of doing you own calculations, then you MUST use the 150 ft distance. Chris

Братанчик, смазывай катушки чаще и будет счастье-рычаг высева двигать будешь не напрягаючись,😉
Why is 150 feet used? How do you get that number?
