Martin closing wheels - spade type - how small?????

andy r · May 4, 2017

Is anyone running the Martin spade type closing wheels. These would be the 13 inch where two spading wheels are used on each row. They are 13 inch from Martin when new. Mine are now down to 12 inch. How much wear is too much. Martin says they like to see them replaced at 12 inch. Doe anyone have experience running double 13 inch spading wheel???? Do they work down below 12 inches???????? What is your overall experience with this set-up????? Thanks.

NOt much help, but I run the singles. Just replaced them this spring... I'd have to go out and measure my old ones. I felt they did a good job even worn. The drag chain compensates for the less that perfect!

We have them. Ours have about 3 washers on each wheel. So I would think you could take a couple out to make up for wear.
