AS I work to make my antique Planet Junior seeder functional, I remembered
that our Earthway was much improved with a different drive belt. The
current one makes more contact and we get a better seeding rate, so check
the belt--that's fairly easy to change. I've used the fertilizer attachment
too, with the same unimpressive results and today the the plastic feeder
chute broke just at the shut-off slider. I was ready to use colorful
language until I tried it as it was. It worked just fine, even better than
before.
Back to the antique - I'm missing the drive chain for this seeder-does
anyone know how to get parts for a Planet Junior? A web search provided no
info.The drive wheels have cogs on 1/2 inch centers and 1 in centers and
the chain would be 31.5 inches long. A bicycle chain doesn't work, the
cogs are the wrong shape.
