2 Row Planter ID Please

BMRENN · Jul 13, 2023

Hello, just picked up this 2 row planter and after much research it seems like it might be an International Harvester IH 25 ???

1. Can anyone ID this?

2. If it is an IH 25, does anyone have a pdf of a manual they would be willing to share or direct me to?

Thank you !

Forgot to add, would really appreciate any info on seed plate size and compatibility.

I have a handful of JD 6 15/16" cast iron and lustron plates already, but assuming the drive method would not be compatible... unless there is an adapter out there?

(sorrry if that's a dumb Q, I didn't have a chance to measure these plates yet)

Pretty sure the plates will be unique to the manufacturer at least and very likely to the planter model. I have a BUNCH of IH plates. I am about to buy a Cole 12 MX and sell 4 of the other 5 one row planters that I have. The problem with all the plates I have is they are all singles. I run one row stuff.

Right! I just planted sungflowers with my neighbor's Cole 12 MX single but he mentioned he thought it wasn't available anymore. Assuming you are buying used?
