IMPORTANT: Vacuum levels are a starting point. Perform a field check and adjust level to obtain proper population.

NOTE: To maintain vacuum levels when using flat edible-bean disk, do not exceed 12 row units per vacuum blower.

Due to differences in seed sizes and shapes within a seed variety, actual populations vary at the same vacuum level.

Order the Flat Edible-Bean Vacuum Gauge (AA38407) through your John Deere dealer.
