[QUOTE="dun, post: 855538, member: 34"] Something else that crossed my mind was what to do when you're finished with it. Seed or fertilizer through it doesn;t matter. Wash it out well with water, when it's dry hit all movable parts with some deisel or WD40. It's surprising how hydroscopic the dust from seeding is. Also, depending on how the opening and closing of the feed gate works, figure out a way to turn it off and on, (off is more important) from the tractor seat. If you have to climb off and RUN back to the unit to turn it off you would be shocked at how much clover seed can run out on the ground even when the gate is barely open. If you can figure out a way to put a shield on the front of it so that the seed/fertilizer doesn;t get flung on your backside it's well worth the effort. [/QUOTE]
