How do you set the depth on an International 510 drill? No, my question is: How do you know how deep you are setting it? And how do you keep setting it at the same depth?
I borrowed this drill from a neighbor last spring, to drill some clover with oats as a nurse crop.
The main body of the drill runs on the outside wheels. The cylinder raises and lowers the openers/planting units.
My goal was to plant clover half an inch. However, it just seemed like a guess as to depth.
There seemed to be no markings or limiter or anything to set the depth. It seemed like I should just guess at where in the middle to set the cylinder.
My question is: Is there some way to set this drill to plant at a chosen depth? Do other drills do a better job of letting you set the planting depth?
On this drill, there is a small seed box, but he had removed the tubes, so I didn�t use it, just mixed the clover and oats and put them in the main box.

To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
