Bought this grain drill W/ grass seed attachment at an estate auction today. I have never used one so don't know anything about it. Got it home tonight and looked it over and I cant seem to find a model # stamped anywhere. The seed charts both say International but dont give a model #. I was wondering if anyone has any info on it. I'd like to order a manual for it once i have the model #. I have a bunch of questions but I'll start with this Thanks in advance for any help! (looks to me like previous owner cut out fertilizer hopper wall and made the large seed hopper bigger???)   . haha------------- 1955 WD-45 with factory PS |

Some were identified by the number of openers(discs) X the spacing between rows, ie: a 13X7 is 13 discs X 7" row spacing... ------------- Source: Babylon Bee. Sponsored by BRAWNDO, its got what you need! |

It's a Model M - low pneumatic(a.k.a rubber tired) grain drill. Manuals can be found easily online. ------------- Pre-WW2 A-C tractors on steel wheels...because I'm too cheap to buy tires! |
