I Just bought a John Deere 2 - row corn planter today and need some info. I was unable to see any model # on the unit as it is packed tightly in the farmers shed and I won't be getting it home for a few days. It has bins up front for the seed. bins in back for fertilizer, marking wheel on each side , probably a "standard model" maybee someone could advise if they know what model it is and if there is a sorce for a manual describing its operation.
As you can tell I have never attempted to plant corn and need help.

If it has a seat on it, it's probably a 999. If it's tractor drawn, with clutch lift transport wheels, it's probably a 290. If it's 3-pt, it's probably a 246. There were other models, too, so maybe I still didn't identify it. Do the seed boxes have lids with John Deere Moline Illinois and a leaping deer stamped into them?

I don't remember if the lids had anything on them, it is a 3-point type planter, no seat thats about all I know.
Any help?

It's probably a 246. They were very popular. I don't remember if YT has manuals for this planter or not. JD dealer should be able to get one. BTW, if you find you need plates for it, e-mail me, I may still have some hanging around.
