By any chance, is your 8300 a double-run drill? You had questions about sprockets and seeding rates. Said you ran out of seed early. I said to check the manual. The manual for a FLUTED drill shows a lever setting to control rate. Same manual shows a double-run drill, with sprocket/chain combinations that give you 18 choices. Regular, Slow, and Super slow. Much too much info to post here- if it is a double run with all those combos- you REALLY need the manual, it shows a page full of sprocket/chain settings. As well as left/right side choices for the runs. To all others who want to run a drill- the manual still tells more than what is on the lid of the box.

As much as I've always contended that tractor/machinery purchasers should buy the manual for the machine- I'll be the first to say that some manuals are very poorly written. On some older AC manuals, like the WD- they used pictures of other models to illustrate some parts, which were incorrect. Maybe ok in the old days, but not now when newbies buy those machines. They have enough questions without trying to ID a picture to their tractor. The 8300 JD manual is also poor- does a lousy job of delineating the differences between models, like a fluted or a double-run machine. Reminds me of certain sections of Gleaner combine manuals, as well as others. Factory people have a whole different vocabulary when it comes to identifying parts. The info is generally there, once you figure out what they call it.
