The first thing they teach us farmers is that the top of your main tube should be level with the ground. Then the seed box runs level and all of the discs and wheels contact the ground correctly.
Agree with first comment about frame level with the ground, your parallel arms should be parallel to the ground when planting. Lengthen that top link between the tractor and planter and everything will work better.
Fortunately for it came on the planter, and it was already set up. I wouldn’t know how to add the airbag system to it from scratch. If you get one with it attached it’s really a trial and error process to figure out what setting works best. The setting will also vary based on soil conditions and planting depth
I bought it off a local guy who bought it new from up north and used it for one season. It’s a handmade planter using John Deere 7000 parts. Same adjustment principles will apply to a JD 7000.

Real nice vid
Good video! FYI, with headphones on and volume on max I had a hard time hearing.
How many PSI for airbag?
Can you share with me how you set up your air compressor down-pressure unit on the planter? Thank you, Patrick Wolf

How did the corn do.... can't find a follow up video
It did well. It produced 3-4 grain heads per stalk and was about 6 feet tall. I didn’t make a follow up video for the corn.
Hi. You used herbicide?
How much did that planter cost and what model

I believe I paid $3,000 for it
