Needham Ag - Drilling Out John Deere Seed Boots, For Installation of Needham Ag Bushings

Slower internet access? Be sure to use the "CHANGE QUALITY" function in the bottom right corner of the video screen, to the right of the CC symbol. It loads MUCH faster when the 240 quality option is selected.
This is a 6 minute instructional video, which demonstrates how to drill out the John Deere extended wear seed boots, in preparation for the installation of the Needham Ag Seed Boot Bushings.
Using the 5/8" carbide tipped drill bit (offered by Needham Ag), 500-600RPM is recommended for acceptable drilling speeds and long bit life.
BE SURE the seed boot is firmly held within the drill press or milling machine, as ANY vibration between the carbide tipped drill bit and the boot will damage the drill bit tip. Do not use cutting oil or any other coolants, as heat is required to help soften the material for drilling.
