corn planter

[Laminarman]

I have a Flexi Planter 71. I paid a very reasonable $375 on eBay, refurbished and in great shape. Be careful of shipping charges (ask me how I know). Works very well. Mine is a single row unit, which does the job. Were I to do it again, I'd look at the Covington unit which Sweets sells I believe. The Flexi Planter works well, but it's old, and there are maintenance issues.

What are your maintenance issues? I have a 2 row 71 planter and it is so simple I can't imagine many maintenance issues.

Ditto. These things are so simple I don't see much to maintain. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Actually you guys are right, don't know why I typed that. My cover door to the chain/sprockets falls off, the tab is broken and I tape it on. The spring holding the corn holder pin from tilting thingy is broken, so that's wired on. Missing one of the little piece of metal things that scrapes the crud off the black disc. Works fine however, just little tiny issues.
