Happy New Year everyone. I just got this Allis Chalmers two row planter and would greatly appreciate any help in identifying the model number. I'm looking for a parts and an operators manual.

Thank you and have a great day.

That would be a 50 series unit.  Universal plates with AC adaptor drive from Lincoln AG Products  will work .  Goggle  it.  Look at the hopper bottoms - under false bottom or lower lid.  IF there is wear one can jb weld up the worn areas - if used worn it will result in doubles.  Same goes for cut off tongue and roller. The roller is floppy when new. There should not be a groove in  the tongue.

Thanks for the reply, I did have 600 series written down, then yesterday I saw on another post about looking up 50/60 series and that looks like mine.

Thanks again and have a great day.

600 would be a frame = as in 300 333 330 600 etc units are 50 70  74   77 and 78 air
71 us a runner unit 72 double disc opener etc 
50 series had flat chain and a crank for depth - earliest few had a lever. 
72 series had flat chain and depth pins - later 74 series had roller chains.

Great information! I know its a stretch but do you have any guess as to what year it could be? Or even 60's, 70's ?

Thanks
