Now that my wheat is off and the weather is dry, I am working on the #4 subsoiler that I got from Jamie(NC). I would really like to find an operator's manual for it since few implements are ever as simple as they first appear. An original would be great, but a copy or a scan would serve my purposes just fine. Let me know if you have something available. |

If you can not find one some where else please let me know. According
to my list I have one. All of my manuals are in storage at the present time and will not be available until my new shop is done. The shop is under construction at the present time. Bryan in SW Idaho |

Thanks for the bump. Please keep me on your list. I haven't had any other offers yet, but I will certainly let you know if I am able to find one. I will gladly pay any copying, scanning, and shipping fees, as well as something for your time. |

Bill: The manual arrived today, and it has already been helpful! Here's the story: After getting my fencerow subsoiler freed up, I hooked it to my D14 and was surprised to find that it would only go about halfway in the ground, which at ~12-14" deep still wasn't too shabby, but I thought it should be capable of running deeper. Sure enough, according to the manual my subsoiler was assembled wrong at some point in its life. I will move the crossbar (and beaming screw mount) to the forward set of holes tomorrow, and I'm willing to bet that the ol '14 will have its work cut out for it then! Just goes to show that a manual is a handy thing to have, even for the simplest of tools.(Another handy thing to have is this forum, and the members who are willing to share what they have. Thanks Bill!) |
