Sounds like a bearing is gone somewhere. First time around the field I toasted the marker arm on a tree so since it is a triangle field anyways I planted in a circle. Combining was slightly confusing but actually got a better yield. Not sure everyone teasing me was worth it though.
We have a 8 row 7200 vacuum planter with all the no-till attachments you could imagine on it and I was no-tilling soybeans into wheat land at 5.7 with a 6615
No, it has finger meters. The next planters will be vacuum for sure. Actually, JD says with the new xps units you can go up to 8mph with no loss in seed placement. However I would never even dream of those speeds on my stony ground.
We just did a massive change around of tractors on the farm. We bought 3 new tractors so the 8200 was replaced from tillage and put on the 16 row. It is getting up there in hours so we have decided to give it easier tasks. I really appreciate the transmission and hydraulics on the tractor for planting.
What I meant was that the tractor is using alot of fuel for the amount of work its doing (if that makes any sence). You could use a 110-130 hp tractor instead of a 160 hp tractor and it will still do the same job.

We have no need for beds as we have no need for irrigation. RTK would be nice though.

Great video. Don't you think the 8200 is a bit big for that planter?
