Features
Advance with MaxEmerge™ 5 advantages
MaxEmerge 5 bundles the best of MaxEmerge XP and Pro-Series™ XP row-units to give you a unique planter solution. With more options and configurations, you’ll get difference-making versatility that easily adapts to your ag management plan.
It starts with optimal seed population that drives yield potential. An improved double eliminated helps achieve your desired population with a ride range of crop sizes. Improved side-hill performance of up to ¼ degree ensures you receive the full value of each seed when planting on terraces or rolling terrain. The vacuum air source from the Central Commodity System (CCS™) tank in the meter provides a debris-free environment for increased meter efficiency.
The MaxEmerge family of row-units have never seen a more versatile and efficient design until the MaxEmerge 5. The 5-family row-units improve productivity, increase uptime and lower the cost of ownership like never before.
The MaxEmerge 5 row-unit was designed for improved performance and serviceability.
Serviceability and changing crops have always been a focus of downtime and potential seed loss. The MaxEmerge 5 meter (shown on the right) is accessible without having to remove the box. The design allows large hoppers to be cleaned out the same as mini-hoppers, simply by opening the meter dome and catching the seed as it falls out.
The vacuum meter system gently pulls and holds individual seeds to the holes of the seed disk for population control and spacing accuracy, equaling better crop stands and profit. Vacuum seed meters can plant a wide variety of crops and seed types by simply changing seed disks and adjusting vacuum level. Vacuum seed meters are available for planters with MaxEmerge 5 row-units.
Additional features of the vacuum seed meter include:
- One moving component (the seed metering disk) for minimum maintenance requirements
- Meter located at each row-unit for accurate seed delivery
- Good hopper seed flow characteristics for longer operating time per hopper fill
- Low airflow in meter so seed treatments are not removed
The MaxEmerge 5 meter shape has also been redesigned for better seed flow. The mini-hopper design allows the planter to successfully operate on side hills up to 14 degrees.
Vacuum meter hub and latching handle
Both the MaxEmerge 5 vacuum meters are equipped with a heavy-duty hub spring and disk latching handle. The spring ensures the seed disk stays properly positioned when operating flat-style seed disks and higher vacuum levels. Proper seed disk positioning means repeatable seed singulation, time after time. The disk-latching handle is designed for easy operation and effortless seed disk changeover. The hub is also machined to tight tolerances to further ensure alignment of metering components.
Operating characteristics of vacuum seed meter
The vacuum seed meter can operate at faster planting speeds than mechanical meters. However, planting accuracy will be influenced by seedbed conditions and the operating characteristics of the seed meter. Rough seedbeds and fast planting speeds (above 8.9 km/h [5.5 mph]) typically deteriorate seed placement accuracies when using seed tube technology.
The chart illustrates the effect operating speed has on population when using the vacuum meter. The operating band (color area) illustrates how the vacuum meter performs in relation to the desired population (indicated by horizontal line). The width of the band is due to various sizes and shapes of seeds and planting rate variations.
When operating on slopes above 15 degrees, increased or decreased population may result. To minimize this effect, reduce speed and consider using a flat style seed disk with increased vacuum level.
Vacuum meter seed disks
The ProMax 40 Flat Disk is a flat-disk planting solution field-proven to work since 1991.
The design of the ProMax 40 Flat Disk position allows seed to be released from the optimum position above the seed tube. The flush-face seed tube allows the seed to drop uninterrupted through the tube.
The ProMax 40 Flat Disk utilizes flat holes and a higher vacuum level to ensure every hole is populated with a seed. A double eliminator gently removes multiple seeds at each hole for precise population control. A knockout wheel makes certain that each hole is clear of any debris after the seed is released from the disk.
The unique cell disk design allows planting a variety of seed sizes without any additional parts or individual meter adjustments. Another advantage of cell-type seed disks is the lower vacuum requirement compared to flat-style seed disks. Lower vacuum levels mean less hydraulic demand from the tractor. Most planting conditions call for a flat disk, if you are limited in hydraulic capacity, cell disks are recommended.
Double eliminator
For difficult to singulate seeds, a flat seed disk and double eliminator is a viable alternative to traditional cell-type seed disks. By design, a flat seed disk requires higher levels of vacuum than a cell-type disk because there is no pocket or cell to hold the seed. The higher vacuum level will pull more than one seed to the holes in the seed disk. The double eliminator is set to cover a portion of the hole in the seed disk and is the mechanism to knock multiple seeds away as the disk rotates.
Double eliminators are required with flat-type seed disks only and should not be used with cell-type seed disks. The knockout wheel is also recommended in conjunction with the double eliminator and flat seed disk to ensure seed is ejected from the disk.
Flat and celled type seed metering disks are available to allow planting a wide variety of seed types.
- Corn (field, popcorn, or sweet corn)
- Soybeans
- Cotton
- Sorghum
- Sugar beets
- Sunflowers
- Edible beans/peas
- Peanuts
- Melons, squash, cucumbers
Mini-hopper row-units, which are used only with the CCS, are compatible only with crops that the CCS is approved to plant.
- Corn
- Popcorn
- Sweet corn
- Soybeans
- Sunflowers
- Sorghum
- Cotton
NOTE: Due to small seed size and low planting populations, sugar beets can be planted with mini-hopper style meters by adding hopper extensions and not using the CCS tank. These hopper extensions can also be used for planting test plots.
Also, to help with meter access of 56-L and 106-L (1.6-bu and 3-bu) hoppers the hopper shutoff feature was added. With the shutoff engaged, the meter cover can be opened without first having to remove all the seeds from the hopper. Lever down, the seed flow is on, lever horizontal and the seed flow is off.
There are significant changes to the MaxEmerge 5 mini-hopper. One update is the straight feed from the CCS hose to the mini-hopper to ensure a continuous free flow of seeds. This design change reduces the potential for plugging issues with larger seed size and the use of seed treatments. By drawing air from the CCS tank, the vacuum source is cleaner, preventing meter debris buildup.
Ductile iron casting is a unique high-tech process that produces a single-piece row-unit shank this enables alignment from the seed trench to the closing wheel.
The row-unit head is also designed using the ductile iron-casting process. The row-unit head provides the mating joints between the row-unit parallel arms and the row-unit shank. It is also the upper attaching point for the seed meter and seed hopper.
Ductile iron casting of the row-unit shank and head assembly provides a row-unit that is 25 percent stronger than other competitive welded row-units.
One of the trademark capabilities of John Deere planters has always been the ability of the Tru-Vee openers to provide an ideal seed furrow.
The thickness of the Tru-Vee opener blade is 3.5 mm (0.14 in.) this blade thickness will provide extended wear life.
The MaxEmerge 5 row-unit also provides better Tru-Vee opener bearings for longer life. The double-row ball bearing provides up to three times the wear life as the single-row bearing.
John Deere planters provide consistent seed depth control in all field conditions. Depth control is a function of the Tru-Vee openers, the downforce system, and the gauge wheel assembly.
The gauge wheel itself is made of durable nylon composition with a concave profile. This profile gently firms the sides of the seed furrow, ensuring a well-defined trench. The shape reduces rocks and residue being picked up and thrown onto the drive chains and row-units, and helps to prevent rooster tailing of soil.
The bolt-through design utilizes an open bearing in the gauge wheel that allows an attaching bolt to pass through the wheel to the threaded hole in the gauge wheel arm. This simple bolt-through design provides for a positive attachment of the gauge wheel to the gauge wheel arm and allows quick removal of the gauge wheel for service.
Adjustability of the row-unit is critical to good performance. More available downforce options than any row unit in the industry
- Adjustable heavy-duty downforce, four settings, 0 kg (0 lb), 57 kg (125 lb), 113 kg (250 lb), and 181 kg (400 lb) of downforce
- Pneumatic downforce, infinitely variable from 0 to 181 kg (0 to 400 lb) of downforce
- Active pneumatic downforce adjusts automatically for changing ground conditions from 0 to 181 kg (0 to 400 lb) of downforce
Rubber tire closing systems are used for most conventional, minimum-till, and no-till planting conditions. The spacing between the wheels is adjustable so the closing system can meet the needs of those who want to plant small seeds at shallow depths.
The wheels can also be staggered fore and aft to enhance residue flow. Four levels of spring force are available and are easily set with the integrated T-handle adjustment. A lower force spring can be obtained from parts, if a lower amount of force is required.
Additional closing wheel options include:
- Cast closing wheels for tough-to-close conditions
- Disk closing, for shallow planting depths
- Closing wheel frame less wheels for growers desiring to use aftermarket closing wheels
Row cleaner options to meet residue management needs
Crop yields have increased through the years along with the amount of residue left in the field after harvest. At the same time, tillage practices have changed, including different tillage operations which maintain large amounts of surface residue, and even no-till practices. Row cleaners are an essential tool in managing this increased amount of residue.
John Deere seeding group offers a variety of row cleaner options to meet the needs of a producer's operation. Compatibility varies by model, row spacing, and other planter equipment.
Screw-adjust, unit-mounted row cleaner
The screw-adjust, unit-mounted row cleaner is mounted directly to the face plate of the row-unit, placing the ground engaging components just in front of the row-unit opener blades and depth gauge wheels. This close proximity allows the gauge wheels to control the depth of the row cleaner as well as the row-unit. This compact design also allows greater compatibility with fertilizer openers and other planter attachments.
SharkTooth® wheels are standard equipment on the unit-mounted row cleaner. The swept-tooth design of the wheel provides a clear path for the row-unit openers while resisting residue buildup on the wheel. The screw adjustment knob is accessible through the top of the parallel arms, providing convenient access for adjustments. The row cleaner can be adjusted in 1.6-mm (1/16-in.) increments, providing plenty of flexibility to meet the needs of changing conditions.
Floating row cleaner with unit-mounted coulter
The floating row cleaner allows a row cleaner to be used in conjunction with a unit-mounted coulter. This combination is often desired in heavy residue loads and reduced tillage planting conditions. The row cleaner provides a clear path for the row-unit, while the unit-mounted coulter helps penetrate tough soil conditions.
Accommodating the unit-mounted coulter means the residue wheels are farther forward from the row-unit face plate than in the case of the screw-adjust row cleaner. To maintain performance, this row cleaner has the capability to float above a defined minimum depth.
Standard depth-gauging bands on the wheels allow the row cleaner wheels to float independently of the row-unit openers, allowing both to perform in varying terrain. The unit may also be set in a fixed position by simply pinning through the bracket if desired. This row cleaner also features SharkTooth wheels as standard equipment.
The floating row cleaner and unit-mounted coulters are available on many planters as factory-installed equipment.
NOTE: Screw-adjust row cleaners are not compatible with MaxEmerge™ 5e row-units with long parallel arms.
NOTE: DB models have the option for either unit-mounted coulter, screw-adjust row cleaners, or pneumatic row cleaners (only compatible with MaxEmerge 5e or equipped ExactEmerge™ models). The DB60T is only available with a less row cleaner option.
SharkTooth is a trademark of Yetter Manufacturing, Inc.
Seed variable-rate drive provides the ultimate planting productivity
Seed variable-rate drive provides the ultimate planting productivity by utilizing one, two, or three hydraulic motors (varies by model) to turn the seeding drive shaft. Hydraulic control of the seeding drive allows for on-the-go seeding rate changes right from the display mounted inside the tractor cab. Combine this seeding flexibility with the map-based planting option, and seeding rates adjust automatically based on the prescribed map.
Variable-rate drive offers the following advantages over common, ground, or contact-tire drive systems:
-
Rate changes are almost instantaneous; no ramp up or ramp down of system as in some competitive systems
- Permits the producer to match seed population based on different soil types or irrigation practices
- John Deere design provides added operator safety by eliminating any possible drive creep found in some competitive variable-rate drive systems
Single- or dual-motor systems for variable-rate drives are available for all John Deere planters except the 1785 Rigid Frame. Variable-rate drive is available as a factory-installed option for all applicable planter models.
Single- or dual-motor systems are available as field-installed attachments for most planter models; however, a three-motor variable-rate drive field-installed attachment is not available.
Seed variable-rate drive requires the SeedStar™ monitor and a radar input signal. Either tractor or planter radar may be used. Planter radar is ordered separately.
NOTE: Peanut seed meter disks require the variable-drive transmission.
Granular fertilizer systems
Granular fertilizer hopper and transmission
Granular fertilizer is available for 1755, 1775, and 1785 Planters. Fertilizer hoppers/tanks and selected other equipment may not be installed to facilitate shipping. Fertilizer attachments place fertilizer only on 76.2-cm, 91.4-cm, or 96.5-cm (30-in., 36-in., or 38-in.) spacings. Some planter frame and row spacing combinations result in the opener offset 10.1 cm to 15.2 cm (4 in. to 6 in.) from the centerline of the Tru-Vee opener.
Hoppers hold approximately 249.5 kg (550 lb) of fertilizer for longer operating time between fill-ups. One hopper feeds two rows. Hopper lids provide a large opening for fast filling with less spillage. Hoppers pivot for easy dumping and cleaning.
The transmission (two on 1775) has 24 sprocket combinations in consistent 6 percent increments to allow operators to apply fertilizer at the desired application rate. Depending on which auger is selected, a wide range of fertilizer rates can applied from 52.7 kg/ha (47 lb/acre) to 803.7 kg/ha (717 lb/acre). It requires openers or a surface application bracket.
Augers for granular fertilizer system
Low-, regular-, or high-rate feed augers are required to complete the granular fertilizer system. Augers move fertilizer from the fertilizer boxes to the opener. Regular- or high-rate augers are matched with the opener style selected and are available as a factory-installed option or as an attachment for field conversion. Low-rate augers are only available as an attachment for field conversion.
For 76.2-cm (30-in.) rows, the approximate rate of application is as follows:
-
Low-rate augers – 52.7-139 kg/ha (47-124 lb/acre)
-
Regular-rate augers – 105.4-533.5 kg/ha (94-476 lb/acre)
-
High-rate augers – 183.8-803.7 kg/ha (164-717 lb/acre)
For 96.5-cm (38-in.) rows, the approximate rate of application is as follows:
-
Low-rate augers – 41.5-208.5 kg/ha (37-186 lb/acre)
-
Regular-rate augers – 82.9-418.1 kg/ha (74-373 lb/acre)
-
High-rate augers – 124.4-626.6 kg/ha (111-559 lb/acre)
NOTE: Weight metered may vary from that indicated because the fertilizer attachment will meter by volume not by weight and because of differences in fertilizer density.
1755 and 1785 granular fertilizer openers
Frame-mounted, double-disk openers and frame-mounted, single-disk openers for granular fertilizer are available on the 1755 and 1785 Planters. The frame-mounted, single-disk opener is available with a regular spout or cast spout. Fertilizer openers place the granular fertilizer into the soil for maximum plant uptake and are adjustable. Single-disk fertilizer openers are required for no-till, but are also suitable for conventional and reduced tillage. Double-disk fertilizer openers should only be used in conventional and reduced tillage conditions.
-
Single- and double-disk openers are compatible with frame-mounted coulters.
-
Single-disk opener with cast spout is recommended for all soil conditions because it keeps soil from flowing into the furrow before fertilizer is delivered.
-
The gauge wheel on single-disk openers will help gauge fertilizer application depth and minimize soil disruption.
-
On 1755 8Row30 Planters, due to frame limitations, the granular fertilizer systems with single-disk openers can place fertilizer no closer than 12.7 cm to 15.2 cm (5 in. to 6 in.) to the seed furrow on rows 4 and 5.
1770 granular fertilizer openers
Frame-mounted, single-disk fertilizer openers with cast spout are utilized on the 1775 12Row30 Planter. These openers are ideal for both conventional and no-till. The openers are adjustable to place the fertilizer in the soil next to the seed furrow for ideal nutrient placement and maximum plant uptake. A single gauge wheel allows the opener to follow the contour of the ground for ideal fertilizer depth placement. Single-disk fertilizer openers are compatible with frame-mounted coulters.
Tire contact drive system
The tire contact drive for mechanical seed transmissions is a great fit for the mid-to-large planter operator concerned with quick transport capabilities, lower maintenance, and positive seed meter drives. The tire contact drive system is a simple, reliable, and efficient way to power seed transmission and meters.
The tire contact system drives the seed transmission mounted above the inner planter ground drive tire. A turf tire engages the ground drive tire when the planter is lowered, automatically turning the seed transmission and seed meters. Automatic drive disconnect occurs when the planter is raised and the turf tire separates from the ground-engaging tire. The system eliminates clutches, countershafts, and manual transport disconnects needed on direct ground drive systems. Drive chains and sprockets are moved up and out of the soil and residue zone for excellent reliability.
Tire contact drive systems are base equipment on the 1745, 1765, 1765NT, 1775 12-Row, and 1785 Planters. Contact between the ground-engaging tire and seed transmission tire is positive. On all models mentioned, a spring set applies downforce of the turf tire assembly onto the ground-engaging tire. System slippage is also minimized because the planter drive tires track in the tractor tire tracks. Frame designs differ (such as tire width) and the following different downforce requirements exist:
-
1765 8-Row drives have 207.3 kg (457 lb) of downforce.
-
1765 and 1775 12-Row drives have 254 kg (560 lb) of downforce.
The 1745 model uses one front-mounted seed transmission, and if the planter is equipped with fertilizer, another front-mounted transmission is utilized. The 1765 model uses one rear-mounted seed transmission. However, if the planter also has the fertilizer option, there is another rear-mounted transmission for the fertilizer drive. The 1785 Rigid Planters utilize one front-mounted seed transmission, and if the planter is equipped with the liquid fertilizer option, another front-mounted transmission is utilized. The 1775 12-Row Planter utilizes two rear-mounted seed transmissions. Another rear-mounted transmission is used if the planter has the fertilizer option.

Down Force
Down force spring (inside), non-adjustable, 40.8233 kg (90 lb) down force (1 row) - BA25958
Upforce / Downforce spring systems
Planter row-unit downforce is an important factor to ensure consistent and proper depth control. Downforce systems are used to keep the planting units from bouncing on rough seedbeds and to improve planter penetration in heavy residue and harder soil conditions. The amount of downforce required is determined by how the planter is equipped and the field conditions in which the planter is used.
Non-adjustable springs can also be used to apply upforce on the row-units. Upforce can be achieved by changing the orientation of the spring on the parallel arms. This upforce can be used to counteract excess
row-unit margin or extra weight cause by seed, tillage, or other attachments on the row-unit. Upforce springs will limit the maximum amount of downforce that can be place on a row-unit by the downforce system and should only be used in conditions were adequate and consistent depth control is easily maintained.
Non-adjustable springs in the upforce or downforce position can also be used to counteract variances in row to row. When used in conjunction with the pneumatic downforce system, non-adjustable springs can be used to provide a more consistent row-unit margin on each row by compensating for inconsistencies such as tire tracks, different row-unit tillage attachments, and other various attachments.
Non-adjustable springs
A single set of springs apply approximately 90 lb of upforce / downforce per row. Two sets of springs can be used for 180 lb of force per row.
Non-adjustable downforce springs are recommended for use in conventional tilled soil for planting speeds over 5 mph and/or in rough-tilled seedbed conditions. Non-adjustable springs can be used with tillage attachments in lighter, conventional tilled soils. (Not recommended for use with unit- or frame-mounted coulter.)
Adjustable heavy-duty springs
Adjustable, heavy-duty downforce can be used to apply 0 lb to 400 lb of downforce per row and has four settings: 0 lb, 125 lb, 250 lb, and 400 lb. The adjustable, heavy-duty downforce system can be used in all planting conditions and is compatible with all tillage attachments (recommended with unit-mounted coulter, row cleaners, and unit-mounted double-disk fertilizer openers in conservation planting conditions).
- NOTE: Compatible with all MaxEmerge™ Plus planters. Vacuum planters built prior to June 1992 require updated manifold brackets (A52970) to eliminate adjustment interference.

Downforce systems are used to keep the planting units from bouncing on rough seedbeds and to improve planter penetration in heavy residue and harder soil conditions. The amount of downforce required is determined by how the planter is equipped and the field conditions in which the planter is used.
Non-adjustable springs can also be used to apply upforce on the row-units. Upforce can be achieved by changing the orientation of the spring on the parallel arms. This upforce can be used to counteract excess
row-unit margin or extra weight cause by seed, tillage, or other attachments on the row-unit. Upforce springs will limit the maximum amount of downforce that can be place on a row-unit by the downforce system and should only be used in conditions were adequate and consistent depth control is easily maintained.
Non-adjustable springs in the upforce or downforce position can also be used to counteract variances in row to row. When used in conjunction with the pneumatic downforce system, non-adjustable springs can be used to provide a more consistent row-unit margin on each row by compensating for inconsistencies such as tire tracks, different row-unit tillage attachments, and other various attachments.
Non-adjustable springs
A single set of springs apply approximately 90 lb of upforce / downforce per row. Two sets of springs can be used for 180 lb of force per row.
Non-adjustable downforce springs are recommended for use in conventional tilled soil for planting speeds over 5 mph and/or in rough-tilled seedbed conditions. Non-adjustable springs can be used with tillage attachments in lighter, conventional tilled soils. (Not recommended for use with unit- or frame-mounted coulter.)
Adjustable heavy-duty springs
Adjustable, heavy-duty downforce can be used to apply 0 lb to 400 lb of downforce per row and has four settings: 0 lb, 125 lb, 250 lb, and 400 lb. The adjustable, heavy-duty downforce system can be used in all planting conditions and is compatible with all tillage attachments (recommended with unit-mounted coulter, row cleaners, and unit-mounted double-disk fertilizer openers in conservation planting conditions).
- NOTE: Compatible with all MaxEmerge™ Plus planters. Vacuum planters built prior to June 1992 require updated manifold brackets (A52970) to eliminate adjustment interference.

Meter Drive
RowCommand Clutches - Row Units with Chain Drive - BA92869
RowCommand controls seed output
Controlling input costs and improving productivity are key producer requirements today. RowCommand is an effective, integrated John Deere solution designed to meet these intensifying needs.
The RowCommand system manages seed output, reduces yield drag and improves harvest capabilities on select chain-driven MaxEmerge™ XP planters.
NOTE: Chain-drive RowCommand is only compatible with planters equipped with pneumatic downforce systems. On planters equipped with the heavy-duty downforce springs, potential chain interference may result and is not recommended.
NOTE: Chain-drive RowCommand requires some modification to brackets in order to function with corn finger pickup meters. Information on the modifications needed is found in the following sales material.
RowCommand controls seed output by incorporating individual, low-amperage clutches inside the chain-drive gearbox. Clutches are completely enclosed within the gearbox housing to protect them from the elements and harsh operating conditions.
When power is supplied, either manually or through the Swath Control Pro™ solution, clutches disengage the seed meters and the seed flow stops. Controlling seed output at individual rows reduces overplanting in point rows and maximizes seed placement when entering/exiting headlands.
Planter compatibility
RowCommand is available as an attachment for field conversion (AFC) for the following chain-drive planter models equipped with pneumatic downforce systems.
Planter model | Row configuration |
1720 | 12-row narrow, 12-row wide, and 16-row narrow |
1760 | 12-row narrow |
1770 | 12-row narrow |
1770NT | 12-row, 16-row, and 24-row narrow |
1770NT Central Commodity System (CCS™) | 12-row, 16-row, and 24-row narrow |
DB44 | 24Row22 |
RowCommand is also compatible and designed to fit on those model year 2003 to 2008 (serial number range 700101 - 729999) planter models listed above that do not have controller area network (CAN) based frame control or CAN-based half-width disconnect. For model year 2008 and earlier planters (serial number -729999 and below), the correct AFC bundle along with additional components (planter mainframe monitoring harness, SeedStar™ 2 controller, and CAN adapter harness) are required for RowCommand operation.
For all RowCommand eligible planters equipped with a mechanical transmission, a height sensor is required in order for RowCommand functionality.
Chain-drive RowCommand and heavy-duty downforce
As seen in the above image, chain interference may result when operating chain-drive RowCommand on planters equipped with short- and long- parallel arms and heavy-duty downforce springs.
NOTE: Chain-drive RowCommand is only compatible with planters equipped with pneumatic downforce systems. On planters equipped with the heavy-duty downforce springs, potential chain interference may result and is not recommended.
Chain-drive RowCommand with corn finger pickup meters
Due to the design characteristics of the chain drive RowCommand clutch, some modification to the corn finger pickup meter drive bracket is required. As seen in the picture to the left, some material needs to be removed from the front of the meter drive bracket in order for the chain drive RowCommand clutch to have sufficient space for installation.
NOTE: Chain-drive RowCommand requires some modification to brackets in order to function with corn finger pickup meters.
System requirements
By design, power is only supplied to the clutch when a signal is received to stop planting. In a normal planting condition no power is supplied and the clutch is de-energized.
Power for the RowCommand system is provided from the nine-pin ISO implement connector. All late-model 8X00 and 9X00 Series John Deere Tractors equipped with the nine-pin ISO implement connector are capable of supplying ample power for system operation.
Along with ample system power, a GreenStar™ 2 display and SeedStar 2 monitoring is required for operation and control interface. The GreenStar 2 display is where system setup, control settings, and manual control functions are performed.

Miscellaneous
Active pneumatic downforce publications - BA31815
John Deere active pneumatic downforce makes getting the planting accuracy desired even easier. A hydraulically driven compressor works with the SeedStar™ 3 HP system and SeedStar XP system to automate downforce control. Just set the row-unit target margin value and the active pneumatic downforce system works automatically to make sure the planter maintains this value-achieving precise soil penetration, and consistent planting depth without sidewall soil compaction. This frees the operator from constantly making manual downforce adjustments as conditions change. It also allows the operator to focus on all the other planting factors that drive up yields, like seed singulation and spacing.
This system also offers a split rank control feature for split-row planters. On top of actively controlling the pneumatic downforce system across the planter, John Deere active downforce will control the front and rear rows of split-row planter independently. This compensates for differing downforce requirements between the ranks and will help maintain an accurate planting depth and consistent margin across all the rows.
Single-rank planters such as the 1770NT, 1790 24Row20, and Deere Bauer Planters except for the DB60 47Row15 require a compressor assembly and hydraulic hose kit to complete the field conversion. The 1790 and DB60 47Row15 Split-Row Planters require the compressor with split rank control, hydraulic hose kit, and the PDF hose kit for split rank control. Additional components maybe needed depending on model year.
Closing attachment - Drag (1 row) - BA26830
Designed to improve seed emergence in particularly difficult soil conditions that severely bake and crust after planting. These conditions are found primarily in irrigated cotton planting areas of the southwestern United States.
A seed packer wheel precedes the drag and pushes seed down into the moist soil. Drag brings loose soil into seed furrow without compaction. Without the typical closing compaction, the covering soil acts like a mulch, reducing the tendency to crust for improved seed emergence.
Only for use in fields that are relatively level and free of residue and clods that could cause plugging.
NOTE: Not compatible with leveling chains, tine tooth incorporators, rear-mounted granular insecticide or herbicide attachments, seed packer wheel or insecticide diffusers.
Closing system - Cast iron closing wheels and closing wheel arm (1 row) - BA28967

Downforce systems are used to keep the planting units from bouncing on rough seedbeds and to improve planter penetration in heavy residue and harder soil conditions. The amount of downforce required is determined by how the planter is equipped and the field conditions in which the planter is used.
Non-adjustable springs can also be used to apply upforce on the row-units. Upforce can be achieved by changing the orientation of the spring on the parallel arms. This upforce can be used to counteract excess
row-unit margin or extra weight cause by seed, tillage, or other attachments on the row-unit. Upforce springs will limit the maximum amount of downforce that can be place on a row-unit by the downforce system and should only be used in conditions were adequate and consistent depth control is easily maintained.
Non-adjustable springs in the upforce or downforce position can also be used to counteract variances in row to row. When used in conjunction with the pneumatic downforce system, non-adjustable springs can be used to provide a more consistent row-unit margin on each row by compensating for inconsistencies such as tire tracks, different row-unit tillage attachments, and other various attachments.
Non-adjustable springs
A single set of springs apply approximately 90 lb of upforce / downforce per row. Two sets of springs can be used for 180 lb of force per row.
Non-adjustable downforce springs are recommended for use in conventional tilled soil for planting speeds over 5 mph and/or in rough-tilled seedbed conditions. Non-adjustable springs can be used with tillage attachments in lighter, conventional tilled soils. (Not recommended for use with unit- or frame-mounted coulter.)

Floating Row Cleaner Combination for Unit Mounted Coulter (1 Row) - BA32910
When paired with a unit-mounted coulter, the floating combo row cleaner offers the ultimate solution for managing tough residue and soil conditions. The row cleaner clears the way of debris, and the coulter penetrates tough soil, opening the furrow for the row unit opener blades. The floating ability of the row cleaner allows the unit to adapt to varying terrain independently of the row unit.
Features
The floating row cleaner allows a row cleaner to be used in conjunction with a unit-mounted coulter.This combination is often desired in heavy residue loads and tough reduced tillage planting conditions. The floating row cleaner features the SharkTooth® wheel. The beveled, sharpened edge of the teeth on the SharkTooth aggressively cuts flat and standing residue in the path of the row unit. The curved tooth design sweeps a clear path for the unit mounted coulter and opener blades, and resists residue buildup.
When used with the unit mounted coulter, the wheels are run side-by-side. They may be operated with one wheel forward if desired, by simply relocating the wheels to existing holes on the row cleaner bracket. The wheel bearings of the floating row cleaner are sealed and require no regular maintenance.
Cast aluminum depth gauge bands are standard equipment on the floating row cleaner. These durable bands are mounted directly to the row cleaner wheel, and aid the row cleaner in maintaining a consistent operating depth over varying terrain. The depth gauge bands also add weight to the row cleaner, aiding penetration in tough conditions. The depth gauge bands may be removed if desired.
Adjustability
The floating row cleaner is designed with maximum terrain following flexibility in mind. The pin adjustment has multiple settings available in 6.4-mm (1/4-in.) increments. The primary method of operating is to limit the maximum depth of operation, and allow the row cleaner to float up when necessary. This is accomplished by placing the adjustment pin below the floating bracket, limiting downward travel, but permitting upward travel.
It is also possible to set the row unit in a manner allowing full float. Simply place the pin in the lowest setting, allowing the depth gauge bands to determine the operating depth up and down. In some conditions, it may be desirable to pin the unit in a fixed position. This may be accomplished by simply pinning through the floating arm, fixing the row cleaner arm to the row unit and allowing the row unit to control operating depth.
Operational notes
NOTES:
- Not compatible with any row spacing less than 76.2 cm (30 in.), except the 1790 Split-Row Planter.
- Not compatible with Deere/Bauer or Deere/Orthman planters.
- Drive wheel chain shields are recommended for use with row cleaner attachments.
- Long parallel arms are required for use on:
- 1750
- 1760NT
- 1770NT when used in conjunction with frame mounted fertilizer openers
- 1790 front rank when used with frame mounted fertilizer openers
- 1790 rear rank
- For available long parallel arm attachments for field conversion, please click here.
- Use of long parallel arms is recommended, but not required, when using the floating row cleaner on 1770 Flex Planters in conjunction with frame-mounted fertilizer openers. Use of long parallel arms on these machines will maximize the distance between the fertilizer openers and the row cleaner, preventing interference and maximizing residue flow.
- Other row cleaner designs are available for use without a unit mounted coulter, or for use with unit-mounted double disk fertilizer openers.
- Use of row cleaners and unit-mounted coulters is not recommended when surface application pre-plant herbicide is used prior to planting. when using pre-plant incorporated herbicide, the row cleaner should be adjusted to minimize soil disturbance so as not to reduce the effectiveness of the incorporated herbicide.

Pneumatic down force assembly compressor with check valve - BA31836
Improved pneumatic downforce systems are available as a factory-installed option on all planters and as a field conversion bundle for all MaxEmerge™ 5, MaxEmerge XP, MaxEmerge Plus, and MaxEmerge 2 planters. All pneumatic downforce field conversion bundles contain upgraded components to reflect pneumatic system upgrades for model year 2011.
Row-unit downforce is infinitely variable from 0 kg to 181.4 kg (0 lb to 400 lb). A gauge and/or display provides a reading as to how much downforce the system is providing. The downforce is constant at all times during operation.
On all model year 2011 and newer 1775NT, 1775NT Central Commodity System (CCS™), 1795, and DB Series Planters, the pneumatic downforce adjustment is displayed within the GreenStar™ 2 Display as base equipment. However, when converting a model year 2010 and older 1770NT, 1770NT CCS, 1790, and DB Series Planter, the air compressor assembly and gauge need to be mounted within the tractor cab, similar to factory-installed pneumatic downforce equipment configurations for that model year.
Each row-unit has a single air bag located between the parallel arms. The air bag is hooked in parallel so air can be added or released from all rows at once from one location. Split-row planters have the corn row-units and soybean rows plumbed separately, so the pressure can be removed from the bean rows when planting corn.
MaxEmerge 2 row-units with long parallel arms must have the arms changed to current production parallel arms. This ensures the correct hole pattern for pneumatic downforce. Refer to the attachment description to order the appropriate bundle for the frame size.
NOTE: Row-units with long parallel arms require A54544 spacer block if not so equipped (Service Parts).
An air compressor, located either in the tractor cab or on the frame, pumps up the system. Integral planter models ordered with pneumatic downforce from the factory have in-cab mounting as base equipment. For drawn planter models, the air compressor assembly is mounted onto the planter frame for model year 2011. Prior to model year 2011, the 1775NT, 1775NT CCS, 1795, and DB Series Planters have the air compressor mounted within the tractor cab from the factory.
Valves located on the compressor allow bleed-off of the system. Interplant rows are shut off entirely when those rows are locked up.
Field conversion bundles have been established for upgrading pneumatic downforce systems. With the bundle structure, order the individual components for a pneumatic downforce system. There are individual bundles for the air compressor, the row-unit downforce assembly, and a hose kit.
Each planter requires one air-compressor bundle, a number of row-unit downforce assemblies equal to the number of rows on the planter, and a hose kit for each 12 rows being equipped with pneumatic downforce. There are four different row-unit downforce assembly attachments. The selection of the row-unit downforce assemblies is based on the type of meter drive (chain or Pro-Shaft™ drive) and type of parallel arms being utilized (regular or long) on the row-units.

Split-row planters have the corn row-units and soybean rows plumbed separately, so the pressure can be removed from the bean rows when planting corn.
MaxEmerge 2 row-units with long parallel arms must have the arms changed to current production parallel arms. This ensures the correct hole pattern for pneumatic downforce. Refer to the attachment description to order the appropriate bundle for the frame size.
NOTE: Row-units with long parallel arms require A54544 spacer block if not so equipped (Service Parts).
An air compressor, located either in the tractor cab or on the frame, pumps up the system. Integral planter models ordered with pneumatic downforce from the factory have in-cab mounting as base equipment. For drawn planter models, the air compressor assembly is mounted onto the planter frame for model year 2011. Prior to model year 2011, the 1775NT, 1775NT CCS, 1795, and DB Series Planters have the air compressor mounted within the tractor cab from the factory.
Valves located on the compressor allow bleed-off of the system. Interplant rows are shut off entirely when those rows are locked up.
Field conversion bundles have been established for upgrading pneumatic downforce systems. With the bundle structure, order the individual components for a pneumatic downforce system. There are individual bundles for the air compressor, the row-unit downforce assembly, and a hose kit.
Each planter requires one air-compressor bundle, a number of row-unit downforce assemblies equal to the number of rows on the planter, and a hose kit for each 12 rows being equipped with pneumatic downforce. There are four different row-unit downforce assembly attachments. The selection of the row-unit downforce assemblies is based on the type of meter drive (chain or Pro-Shaft™ drive) and type of parallel arms being utilized (regular or long) on the row-units.
Radar for planter monitor system - BA31915
The planter radar is for SeedStarTM and ComputerTrakTM systems. The SeedStar and ComputerTrak 250, 350, and 450 monitor systems require radar.
Radial bean seed meters for MaxEmerge XP row units (3 rows) - BA27748
The radial bean meter is a mechanical meter to be used in conjunction with the finger pickup meter. Soybeans are the only crop compatible with the radial meter.
Those who are currently using the feed cup or competitive brush meters for soybeans and who desire improved spacing and population control should consider the radial meter.
A seed bowl mounts to the meter housing and rotates around the meter housing, singulating seeds for enhanced spacing.
The seed bowl clearance is adjusted in relationship to the meter housing as seed size is changed. Seeds, ranging from 2000 seeds per lb to 4500 seeds per lb, are planted with the one seed bowl.
Brushes mounted on the meter housing act as doubles eliminators and cleaners for the seed bowl.
Meter utilizes a sprocket-type wheel to better eliminate any beans being stuck in the seed bowl and to offer greater wear characteristics.
Meter component life is at least 650 acres per row, prior to wear appearing, for minimum maintenance.
NOTES:
- Radial bean meters require A58634 clip from Service Parts to install meters on 1997
- and earlier 3-bu fiberglass hoppers
-
The radial bean meter is also available for MaxEmerge™ planters by ordering AA45061 from Parts.

Row Tillage Support Bracket for Tine Tooth Tillage, Conservation Disk Furrowers and V-Wing Bed Sweep (1 Row) - BA32862
Includes pointer, scale, and large easy-to-use adjustment knob for convenient adjustment to desired working depth.
Required with tine tooth tillage, conservation furrower, and V-wing attachments when ordered as extra equipment.
NOTES:
1) Not compatible with unit- or frame-mounted coulters or heavy-duty parallel arms.
2) For MaxEmerge™ 2 planters built prior to June 1991, order A52092 cast lower parallel arm.
Scrapers - Heavy duty for Tru-Vee opener blades (2 rows) - BA28012
Recommended for extremely sticky soils where even rotary scrapers have problems keeping Tru-VeeTM disks clean.
Scraper blades are heat treated for added wear.
- NOTE: Not compatible with any row-unit tillage attachments except conservation furrowers, unit-mounted coulter, and unit-mounted row cleaner.
Screw adjust unit mounted row cleaner (1 row) - BA32571
The screw-adjust, unit-mounted row cleaner is mounted directly to the face plate of the row-unit, placing the ground-engaging components just in front of the row-unit opener blades and depth gauge wheels. This close proximity allows the gauge wheels to control the depth of the row cleaner as well as the row-unit. This compact design also allows greater compatibility with fertilizer openers and other planter attachments.
Features
The unit-mounted row cleaner features the SharkTooth® wheel. The beveled, sharpened edge of the teeth on the SharkTooth aggressively cut tough residue that lies in the path of the row-unit. The curved-tooth design sweeps a clear path for the openers and resists residue buildup. The wheels are arranged in a staggered fashion with one wheel leading the other, ensuring complete clearing of the row-unit path. The bearing on the SharkTooth wheel is sealed and requires no regular maintenance. Bearing shields are used between the wheel and the mount bracket to prevent residue wrapping and buildup around the bearing housing.
Adjustability
The unit-mounted row cleaner offers a convenient screw adjustment feature for changing the depth setting. The acme screw is enclosed within the structure of the mounting bracket, providing protection from the elements. The adjustment knob for the screw adjustment is accessible from the top of the parallel arms. The knob can be adjusted by hand or by using a socket. The adjustment is detented in 1.6-mm (1/16-in.) increments, allowing for quick, easily repeatable adjustments across all rows of the planter. An indicator rod and scale on the front of the row cleaner bracket indicate the current setting. If a condition is encountered where use of the row cleaner is not desired, it can be set so that the wheels do not engage the soil surface.
Operational notes and compatibility
Use of row cleaners is not recommended when surface application pre-plant herbicide is used prior to planting. When using pre-plant incorporated herbicide, the row cleaner should be adjusted to minimize soil disturbance so as not to reduce the effectiveness of the incorporated herbicide.
Drive chain shields are recommended for use with row cleaner attachments.
NOTES:
-
Not compatible with use of frame-mounted coulter.
-
Not compatible with any row spacing less than 76.2 cm (30 in.).
-
For 1790 12/23, 12/24, 16/31, and 16/32 row machines, unit-mounted row cleaners recommended provided on the front rank of row units only.
-
For DB60 47R15 machines, unit-mounted row cleaners are recommended on the 24 row units with short parallel arms only.
-
Other row cleaner designs are available for compatibility with unit-mounted coulters and row unit-mounted double-disk fertilizer openers.
- Bundle is not compatible with long parallel arms. If purchasing for use on a long parallel arm machine, a separate bracket must be ordered from Service Parts.
- Drive wheel chain shields are not required on 1760, 1770 12Row30 (non-NT), or 1780 Front-Fold Planters.
- Drive wheel chain shields are required on other compatible models. Order BA25697 for the 1750 Standard Planter. Order BA24093 for all planters except the 1750 Standard.

Seed packer press wheel attachment (1 row) - BA24575
For use when planting cotton in special growing conditions found primarily in southwestern United States.
Some particularly difficult soil types found in these areas are susceptible to severe ''baking and crusting'' if sufficient wind, soil moisture, temperature and sunlight conditions are present. In these situations, it is important to achieve adequate seed/soil contact while minimizing soil surface compaction.
Includes a wheel that runs ahead of the closing wheels to press the cotton seed into the bottom of the furrow.
Using the packer wheel enables the regular closing wheels to be used with a minimum force setting.
Wheels should not be used in the following conditions:
- Moist soil conditions.
- Contour planting application.
- Reduced tillage conditions (typical corn-belt conditions).
Not compatible with:
- Front band insecticide spreader.
- Rear-mounted herbicide/insecticide attachments.
- Disk closing.
Unit mounted coulter - Less coulter blade (1 row) - BA30078
Adapts planter to plant in reduced tillage conditions.

Unit gauge wheels provide depth control.
Coulter blade is positioned directly ahead of Tru-Vee™ opener to ensure accurate tillage in seed zone.
Rippled or fluted blades are available to suit a wide range of tillage and soil conditions.
NOTES:
1) Not compatible with tine tooth tillage, furrower attachments, V-wing bed sweep frame-mounted coulter or unit-mounted row cleaner.
2) Ballast attachment (or fertilizer attachment) may be required for penetration.
3) BA28970 or BA28971, heavy-duty adjustable downforce springs or pneumatic downforce system, are required to provide increased coulter penetration in hard soils and also to help keep unit from bouncing when being operated on rough seedbeds. (Not included with BA30078).
4) Requires A52092 cast heavy-duty lower regular parallel arm (one row) or A84382 heavy-duty lower long parallel arm (one row) from Service Parts. Heavy-duty long parallel arm is designed for use only with the unit-mounted coulter (not for tillage tool support bracket). Cast lower parallel arms have been standard equipment for a number of years, confirm what lower parallel arm subject planter is equipped with.
Vacuum pump power take-off (PTO) driven hydraulic system - 1000 rpm, hoses and fittings - BH78873
A PTO-driven hydraulic pump allows operators to use the vacuum seed meter system with open-center hydraulic tractors and/or a 540 rpm or 1000 rpm PTO. The 540 rpm PTO system is compatible with 4Row through 9Row planters and provides 3.9 gpm at 80 percent of rated speed. The 1000 rpm PTO system is compatible with 4Row through 15Row planters and provides 5.0 gpm at 80 percent of rated speed. Both the 540 and 1000 rpm PTO pumps are for single vacuum motors only and inadequate for dual vacuum motors systems.
Flat seed disks such as edible bean and sweet corn require higher levels of vacuum. These disks require a dual vacuum motor configuration on planters over 8 rows. Neither the 540 or 1000 rpm PTO pump is adequate for flat seed disk operation.
9000 Codes include an oil cooler, except with 4-row planters with 540 rpm pump. When ordering PTO pump as a bundle, you must also order the oil cooler bundle, except with the 540 rpm PTO pump for 4-row applications.
Wheel cover - BA26504
The covers for the tire rim used on the wheel module prevents rocks and other objects from becoming lodged between the rim/tire and the wheel module frame member. Lodged objects in this area could stop the wheel from rotating or tear out the tire valve stem, causing a flat tire. A U-shaped cutout in the wheel cover allows the tire pressure to be checked without removing the cover.
The wheel cover is not compatible with the SeedStar™ variable-rate-drive option. The wheel that has the motion sensor for the SeedStar variable-rate drive cannot be covered.
- NOTE: Wheel covers are also available as service parts. For 1760 or 1770 12Row30 Planter.
Monitor System
ComputerTrak 350 - 4 rows through 32 rows - BA31919

All other planter configurations will only have SeedStar™ 2 monitoring system available with no option for the ComputerTrak 350 monitoring system.
ComputerTrak 350 features include:
-
Liquid crystal display provides operator with information regarding the planter function
-
High/low warning alarm provides warning limits for seed population; this allows the operator to set the upper and lower population limits at which a warning is given
-
Monitors population by row scan, by individual row, or by the minimum/average/maximum features; the minimum/average/maximum feature alternately displays row number and data for the lowest and highest population and the average population
-
Displays seed spacing or population for all rows, showing the minimum/average/maximum for all rows
-
Radar distance measuring is base equipment; this can be field calibrated by the operator for improved accuracy
-
Ground speed of the planter can be displayed
-
Non-volatile memory allows the console to be disconnected from the battery and still retain the program
-
Built-in self-diagnostics check the continuity of all monitor sensor circuits upon power-up, providing up-and-ready display
-
Console is easy to program for special planting patterns such as skip rows, etc.
-
Monitor alarm can be turned off when multiple outside planting units indicate no seed flow, such as when using the half-width disconnect
-
Enables accumulating count of seeds planted by a single row for any distance
-
Allows measuring the total distance required to plant a desired quantity of seeds
-
A second acre counter, allowing two counters of area to be used
-
Split function allows two different planter configurations; this complements the 1790 for corn and soybean operations
-
Population adjustment allows a fudge factor to be used to adjust the displayed population for situations when the calculated population is not being correctly displayed
NOTE: ComputerTrak 350 monitors require a radar input. Radar is ordered separately from monitor.
In the event of a radar or radar input failure, the ComputerTrak 350 monitor has the capability to continue with the monitoring of seed flow. If a disk-failed message occurs on this monitor, a set speed, or known as speed-set mode, can be entered to allow continued operation until the radar or radar input error has been resolved.
When in speed-set mode, fast average, area, and speed readouts will not be available. Row-failed messages will occur when seed count drop below two seeds per second. High- and low-population warning messages are also deactivated in this mode.
Also while in speed-set mode, the monitor is going to show fluctuating populations because it assumes the machine is traveling at a constant speed, even though actual populations may remain accurate at slower and faster speeds. Displayed population will only be close to actual populations when actual ground speed matches set speed.
To enter speed-set mode, please follow the following steps:
-
Hold the split on/off switch while turning monitor on. A full display screen will be displayed for a few seconds and then the row-failed screen will display.
-
Release the split on/off switch and press the setup-select switch. The speed screen will be the first displayed. The speed will be displayed in the lower right-hand corner of the display.
-
Use the digit select and 0-9 switches to enter expected planting speed.
-
Press the scan switch to being monitoring of seed flow.
If power is lost to monitor for any reason, hold the split on/off switch for one second while powering monitor on to re-enter speed-set mode. Previously entered speed is stored in memory and will not have to be re-entered.
NOTE: The speed-set mode is deactivated each time monitor is powered off.
