Gauge Wheel Arm Pivot Kit For Deere 1700 Planters
RK Products Inc. has adapted its gauge wheel arm pivot kit so it can be used on Deere 1700 planters. Now, this new line of Deere planters can be equipped with the most effective gauge wheel arm pivot kit on the market. To adapt the RKP kit to the Deere 1700 series, the original threaded pivot bushing and 16 mm bolt are replaced with an attaching stud and pivot shaft. A bushing adapts the threaded bore of the arm to the pivot shaft. In the RKP system, the load on the arm that causes the gauge wheel to pull away from the opener disk is supported by spring pressure on the end of the hub. The load between the threaded bore and the bushing is therefore very low and allows the bore to be used as a bearing surface. Sells for $49 per row, including the main kit and adapter parts.
RKP is also announcing that they have established a 10-year warranty period on their gauge wheel arm pivot kits. All parts requiring replacement due to wear or breakage are covered. Four years of customer experience in widely diverse conditions indicate that the 10-year warranty is well within the capability of this kit. This extended replacement warranty is in addition to their two-year money back satisfaction guarantee.
