The John Deere VacuMeter™ was improved for Model Year 2008 (MY08) Planters, offering more accurate seed singulation and more precise seed spacing and placement. These improvements can help you maximize your yield in corn production.
Planters built after May 1, 2007 come standard from the factory with these improvements. If your planter was built before May 1, 2007, you can take advantage of these great enhancements by purchasing upgrade kits and select parts.
Kits and parts for MaxEmerge XP, MaxEmerge Plus, and MaxEmerge 2 vacuum meters are listed below.
Upgrade Kits for Pro-Series™ XP Vacuum Meters are also available.

Once a MaxEmerge XP, MaxEmerge Plus, or MaxEmerge 2 vacuum meter is upgraded, your planter is well equipped to give the best performance possible. These upgrades will improve meter performance when using any type of vacuum disk, and are strongly recommended when using the ProMAX 40 Flat Disk.
The ProMAX 40 Flat Disk is rapidly growing in popularity because of the benefits that it offers the operator. It performs very well in crops that are typically difficult to singulate because of inconsistent seed sizes, shapes, or treatments - all of which are becoming common in today's seed market.
The MaxEmerge XP, MaxEmerge Plus, and MacEmerge 2 vacuum meters require the following parts to operate the ProMAX 40:

|
|

When switching back to a cell-style disk, such as a soybean disk, the double eliminator must be set to the storage, or disengaged position. You'll need to (1) remove the knockout wheel, (2) install a cell-disk scraper.
