Your hillers are #21

The PTO shield is for Super A's and 140's that have a belt pulley.

Right battery box side, looks like a piece missing. The lid is differant from mine but looks the right size. Mine has clips that hold the battery in place but looks like yours has rubber bumpers. Mine might be off a 140 so Im not sure I even have the right one, just found it and used it.

Concerning the planter; I have a #185 that is pretty close to this one but we did have a #169 but I cant find it now. I think I know where it is tho. I have never used them myself so from here on is just what I gather from what I see on yours or mine.

The planter mounts on the two gang arms at the same place as the cultivator stuff does. Should be a solid bar (I think its in the pic) then the rest of the planter attaches to that. May have differant holes in it where you can adjust the depth of the furrow opener. On my 185 it has disks to open the furrow but on your it is opened by the furrow openers that are on there. Should be two of them and they Y off of each other and then between them should be a square or diamond tube that keeps them apart and also where the seed drops. I can see one side of the furrow opener on yours but not sure if the other side is there or not. Right behind that is where the other part you have mounts where the seed goes. On mine there is a chain that goes from the seed hopper to the rear wheel that makes it work. Looking at it from the back of the planter the chain drive is on the right. Looks like you have the lid there for the seed container, thought it was a stepping stone at first. On the back of the planter is a chain that lifts and lowers the back of the planter. I suspect it attaches to the pto arm some way then when its up the wheel dont turn and your seed dont come out. The differant sprockets makes the seeder turn slower or faster thus putting out more or less seed. The three differant seed plates you show are for differant seed. You might find a number on them some where and find out what seed they are for.

I like those furrow openers. I have two New Idea Transplanters that have them. Restoring one of them is my next project.

Thats a rake against the garage door. I seen them around but never found the start button on one. Like the skooter, must be planning on higher gas prices.

OK hope that helps more than confuses.
