Standard seed flow monitor or a Cyclomiter (population monitor)?
Used my 400 Cyclo to plant peas earlier this spring and she planted some sweet corn last night.
Time is the biggest enemy... seals on the drums and hopper lid, caulk, seed tubes and diffusers, knock out wheels, brush, bearings, tires, disk openers, belts...
Make sure it comes with all of the gears for changing spacing and fertilizer rates. I assume it is dry fert?
Measure diameter of disk openers. Should be 13 1/2 new. To replace costs anywhere from $30 (without bearing) to $40 (with bearing) EACH. They are non standard in size compared to all of the (new) planters running today.
Aside from standard corn and soybean drums it is difficult to find others and to buy new from CIH is pricey.
