@HydroOne We’ve been waiting over a month for anyone to look at the project. Then will need to wait for our hook up. Very simple project, 35’ from skid transformer, moving load from one building to another, no added system load. It’s a bakery with a Christmas rush starting in 2 weeks…

@HydroOne when will we be getting hooked up? A business depends on this and waiting another month+ during her busiest time of year really is unacceptable.

Strip/planted green from start to finish this year. Preformed very well. I feel all the residue was a huge benefit given the drought we experienced this season. @PioneerSeedsCA yielding awesome. #soilhealth #ontag

@ThomasFarrell23 I have heard of water getting between the boot and pipe which freezes over winter causing the break.

Is anybody else having this issue with 90 series boots? They are no where near wore out but we are continually breaking at the top where the bolt tightens in. #ontag

@ThomasFarrell23 Doesn’t help your current problem but if replacing go with Needham boots. Cost more than JD regular wear but last much,much longer and no wear on the cast mounts.

@ThomasFarrell23 @AgFarmer98 @NeedhamAgTech @argis2000ltd But to help fix or sustain your issue for this season .. you can usually see then begin to fail along the casting line they will crack to the bolt hole .. so I would put a gear clamp or even a heavy zip tie around the base of the boot to help hold it together duct tape also works

@GPastink I would understand if that were the case here. When we got this drill we slowed down. Not that many stones on most our farms either. Never had these issues with 60 series at high speeds. Slowed down to have issues… Great that you found a solution to the issue

@MdMcLean1 For sure. Great that the sensors above it isn’t it. Or get a corn stalk stuck in it and plug the run

@ThomasFarrell23 Ohh there is plenty locally that have had the same experience and it really sucks when you don’t notice and plant a farm with broken boots

@jason_buttar @3furrowsjd Ya that’s what we are talking about doing at this point. Throwing good boots in the scrap bins gotten old when they have lots of life left in them

@ThomasFarrell23 @3furrowsjd Bolt that goes in there should bottom out, should fit inside the seed tube. I would be pretty tempted to weld new pipe there and keep using them.

@ThomasFarrell23 We went away from extended wear replacements due to this .. they break before they wear out .. easy to change just beat them with a hammer and they crumble

@3furrowsjd That was my first thought as well. I’ve tried different amounts of torque on them. Came from Deere rebuilt and has had these issues on ones they did as well as us. No idea. I didn’t tighten the ones I changed today very tight incase that’s the issue

@ThomasFarrell23 You tightening the bolts too tight? Had that problem with cultivator sweeps a while back.
