John Deere Planter update


John Deere Planter Update from Sigourney Tractor & Implement

For those having trouble with swath control settings:
 
 
PLANTER SWATH CONTROL SETTINGS
STEP ONE:   TURN OFF TIME
First verify measurements on tractor and implement are correct.
 
0.1   Seconds change equals approximately 10 inches of distance.
 
SHUTS OFF INTO END ROWS:      Increase turn off time.
 
SHUTS OFF TOO SOON:                 Decrease turn off time.
                                                                (0.3 is the lowest setting.)
If still shutting off too soon, lengthen implement by that amount.
(Dimension B in feet / ADD LENGTH TO SHUT OFF CLOSER.)
 
STEP TWO:   TURN ON TIME
Only adjust after you have calibrated the turn off time.
TURNS ON IN END ROWS:      Decrease turn on time.
TURNS ON PAST END ROWS:      Increase turn on time.
