About the John Deere 7000 Planter

The John Deere 7000 was one of the most significant row crop planters of the late 20th century, introduced in 1971 and produced in various configurations through the 1980s. It was the planter that brought John Deere's finger-pickup seed metering technology to wide-scale adoption — a departure from the cell-type seed disc systems used on earlier planters. The finger pickup mechanism used rubber fingers that picked up individual seeds regardless of shape or size variation, eliminating the need to precisely match seed plates to seed lots and dramatically reducing skips and doubles compared to cell-type systems. The 7000 was also among the first planters to be widely offered in large folding configurations — the 12-row wide, 16-row, and 18-row fold-up frames covered in this manual — which allowed operators to plant wider swaths per pass while still meeting highway transport width restrictions. The folding frame, hydraulic markers, and control console made the 7000 a genuinely high-productivity machine for its era. The 7000 supported an extensive attachment lineup including liquid and dry fertilizer, insecticide, herbicide, and row-cleaner systems. Many 7000s remain in active service on smaller operations today, and the 250-page depth of this manual reflects the genuine complexity of setting up and maintaining a large folding planter correctly.

What This Manual Covers

This 250-page manual covers all three folding configurations across every operational and service aspect of the 7000 planter, with separate documentation where procedures differ by row count or frame type. Key sections include:

  • Safety — John Deere's original safety requirements for large folding planter operation, transport, and field use
  • Preparing for Use — pre-season setup, inspection, and preparation procedures
  • Attaching to Tractor — hitch setup, hydraulic connections, and PTO/marker line connections
  • Control Console — full documentation of the 7000's control console operation, monitor functions, and settings
  • Folding & Unfolding the Planter — step-by-step hydraulic folding and unfolding procedures for safe operation
  • Transporting — transport configuration, road safety, and width compliance procedures
  • Operating the Planter — field operation, row unit setup, depth adjustment, downforce settings, and marker operation
  • Planting Rates — seed population charts and rate adjustment procedures for corn and other row crops
  • Troubleshooting — systematic diagnosis of planting problems, monitor errors, and hydraulic issues
  • Detaching from Tractor — correct disconnection and parking procedures
  • Lubrication — lubrication points and service intervals for a large multi-section folding frame
  • Service — row unit service, finger pickup mechanism service, drive chain and sprocket maintenance
  • Attachments & Attachment Assembly — full documentation of fertilizer, insecticide, herbicide, and other attachment systems
  • Specifications — factory-specification settings, capacities, and dimensions
  • Index — full manual index for rapid field reference

Why This Manual Matters

  • Folding frame operation and safety: Correctly folding and unfolding a 12-row or wider planter requires following the factory sequence precisely — skipping steps or operating the hydraulics in the wrong order can damage the fold joints or create a transport width violation; the step-by-step procedures here are the authoritative reference
  • Finger pickup mechanism service: The 7000's finger pickup metering system requires periodic rubber finger inspection and replacement — the service section documents wear indicators, replacement procedure, and the timing relationship between pickup fingers and seed tube positioning that determines spacing accuracy
  • Control console documentation: The 7000's monitor and control console had more functions than most operators used to from older planters, and the full console documentation is necessary for understanding alarms, population monitoring, and hydraulic marker controls
  • Drive chain and sprocket setup: Population rate changes on the 7000 require drive sprocket changes and chain re-routing — the manual documents the sprocket combinations needed for each target population, which is the information operators lose first when a planter changes hands
  • 250 pages of coverage for a complex machine: A folding 16- or 18-row planter is genuinely complex equipment, and the 250-page depth of this manual reflects that — covering the full machine rather than summarizing it
  • Original factory content: This is the manual John Deere issued to 7000 folding planter owners, carrying manual code OM-A41143

Manual Code: OM-A41143

super smooth, silky, stays comfortable feeling. DO NOT DRY or wash with heat
Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft, Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
I'm impressed. I have used cooling pillow cases before, and found them effective, but the cooling material have always been on just one side. These are 100% cooling material. The material is super smooth and silky feeling. It is great feeling against hair and skin (even better than my old polyester satin I was using before cooling pillowcases). The material is cool, and does not seem to get hot hot. The pillow cases are super stretchy with a small hidden zipper. They grab onto the pillow and dont loosen up. Makes my pillow look neat and clean, not sloppy from loose material. I can even have two pillows stacked and somehow despite being a smooth material, the pillows dont just slide off each other. The cooling aspect works by not trapping heat, not allowing heat to get to the pillow and hold it there. So yeh, the pillow case will feel warm eventually but if you have a fan, or AC, or flip the pillow, then it is is truly cool. Otherwise in my experience when I use a pillow without this, the pillow just gets hot, stays hot, and even with flipping it feels hot.. because the pillow itself has trapped the heat for remainder of night. Yuck. One thing to know and this is very important-- as I learned the hard way-- DO NOT DRY IN DRYER. DO NOT WASH IN HOT WATER. Heat will destroy the material ability to feel and stay cool. Do you want a regular heat trapping pillow case? Then go ahead and dry these in the dryer a few times and you will have a regular pillow case. HOw do I know? I bought these to replace another set (different brand, same idea, same instructions that I failed to remember). I always dried them in the dryer, and one night after having gloriously cool pillows, I noticed that my pillow was HOT night after night. It was then when looking for another set of pillow cases that I learned that they cant be exposed to heat like that. SO PLEASE, just AIR DRY. And so, after I got these and put them on my pillows, I had a much better nights rest. I remember thinking that I wasnt waking to rearrange my pillows. They were just comfortable all night long. Sure, I'd love an even colder pillow, but our room is on the warm side. But at least I wasnt noting the hot hot pillows anymore.

The cooling properties of the Arc-Chill fabric, combined with the soft and silky texture, provide a comfortable and luxurious feel. The hidden zipper design adds practicality without sacrificing aesthetics. While there are minor drawbacks, such as potential diminishing of the cooling effect with frequent washing and limited color options, the overall benefits make these pillowcases a worthwhile investment. If you’re seeking to improve your sleep quality and enjoy a cooler, more comfortable night’s rest, the Avolare Cooling Pillow Cases are definitely worth considering.

Love!
Color: Blue, Size: Queen (U.S. Standard), Set name: Stretchy and Soft
Awesome cases! They really are cool to the touch. I didn’t sleep hot at all. I have a “cut-out” memory foam pillow, and this stretched around it perfectly. It is flexible enough that it doesn’t impede with the cut out. And while the material is “silky,” it doesn’t slide around the pillow while sleeping on it. The zipper feature is perfect. I washed and dried per the tag instructions and they washed very well. Super happy.
