That many pages difference suggests maybe the 1952 manual has it while the 1957 one doesn't. Also, the earlier one mentions high wheel, so may include some stuff specific to it that you don't need. Your drill has the low mount grass seed attachment, which I suspect wasn't available yet in 1952. It probably isn't covered in the older manual. (I tried to find documentation on that. Don't have it.) I expect that either manual will cover your drill. I don't think there was any operational difference on the 2 grass seeders. Instructions for the high mount seeder probably are probably adequate for the low mount. [Reply]  [No Email]

If you have 10" spacing, maybe you need the 1957 version. Best of luck! [Reply]  [No Email]
