John Deere 246 & 446 Corn Planter / 247 & 447 Cotton Planter Operator's Manual

This is the Operator's Manual for the John Deere 246 and 446 Corn Planters and the John Deere 247 and 447 Cotton Planters, covering setup, operation, planting adjustments, marker systems, and the full range of optional attachments across 68 pages. This is the original factory-issued guide for all four models and is available as an instant digital download.

About the John Deere 246, 247, 446, and 447 Planters

The 246, 247, 446, and 447 were John Deere's unit-type row crop planters from the mid-20th century, designed to be mounted on toolbar frames in 2-row, 4-row, and wider configurations depending on row spacing and tractor horsepower. The 246 and 446 were configured for corn planting, while the 247 and 447 were the cotton variants — sharing the same basic planter unit mechanics but fitted with cotton-specific hoppers, seed plates, and cell-drop attachments. The distinction between the numbered pairs (246/247 versus 446/447) reflected different toolbar mounting and marker configurations. These planters used a cell-drop metering system in which the seed plate rotated through the seed supply and carried individual seeds to the furrow — a system that required correct plate selection matched to seed size and shape, and proper rotor timing for consistent spacing. The 247 and 447 cotton variants also accommodated fine seed and peanut attachments, making the manual relevant for a broader range of specialty crop applications than the model names suggest. These planters were widely used across the Corn Belt and Cotton Belt and remain in use on small acreages today.

What This Manual Covers

This 68-page manual covers all four planter models from identification and specifications through field operation, marker systems, and the complete attachment lineup. Key sections include:

  • General Information & Specifications — identification views; factory specifications; model-specific component identification for all four variants
  • Operation — preparing the tractor; attaching the planter; preparing for field operation; transport procedures; planting depth adjustment; drill planting procedures; plant population adjustment; hill-drop planting operation; field safety
  • Marker Systems — marker operation and adjustment for 246/247 and 446/447 configurations separately
  • Attachments & Optional Equipment — fertilizer attachments; insecticide and herbicide attachments; gauge shoes; pre-emerge sprayer; double-disk openers; cotton cell-drop attachment (247 & 447); double-disk furrowers and covering knives; press wheel bands and rubber press wheel tires; brush cut-off and baffle plate (247 & 447); fine seed attachment (247 & 447); shelled and unshelled peanut attachments; pea or bean attachments; ratchet drive sprocket
  • Lubrication & Assembly — lubrication points and service intervals; complete assembly procedures

Why This Manual Matters

  • Corn and cotton in one document: The 246/446 and 247/447 share the same basic unit mechanics but differ in hoppers, seed plates, and cotton-specific attachments — this manual documents both, covering the cross-model differences that create confusion when sourcing replacement parts or converting between crop types
  • Seed plate selection and population charts: Matching the correct seed plate to seed size and adjusting for target plant population are the foundational planting tasks — the factory charts and plate selection guidance in this manual are the reference source for getting those settings right
  • Hill-drop and drill configurations: Both planting modes are documented with separate operating procedures, important when switching crops or adapting the planter to different field conditions
  • Cotton-specific attachment documentation: The cell-drop attachment, brush cut-off, fine seed attachment, and cotton-specific hopper configurations for the 247 and 447 are documented here — information that generic corn planter resources won't contain
  • Full attachment coverage: The extensive optional equipment section documents fertilizer, herbicide, insecticide, peanut, and pea/bean attachments — covering the planter's full capability range rather than just its base configuration
  • Original factory content: This is the manual John Deere issued to 246/446/247/447 owners, carrying manual code OM-825366

Manual Code: OM-825366

A side to Civil Rights
Format: Paperback
A Civil Rights victory through purely peaceful means never seemed completely likely to me and this book is certainly an eye opener and contains information that every US History and US Government teacher should know. Rights are not preserved unless men are willing to stand up to those who seek to oppress. In this case, many black men in the heart of Dixie finally, and near spontaneously banded together and stopped the KKK and forced the local and state governments to finally acknowledge that the natural born rights that John Locke wrote of in the Second Treatise of Government and that the Founders and Framers of our country adopted applied to all men, regardless of race.

"When you're dealing with the wolf,
Format: Paperback
you have to speak the language of the wolf." - Henry Austin, Deacons for Defense This is truly a lost history of the civil rights movement that author Lance Hill has found under the layers upon layers of mainstream narratives which conveniently dictate false truths that - when repeated enough - become larger than life. Following the organized self-defense philosophy espoused by Robert F. Williams in Monroe, N.C., a small group of men in Jonesboro, Louisiana, founded an organization that had great influence in the civil rights movement of the mid-1960s. The success the Deacons had in defeating the KKK and other haters on the streets by standing up, moving forward and staring them down with guns loaded brought a new sense of empowerment in demanding that justice truly be served today. Hill explains how he became aware of the Deacons and then began his quest to research the history. Initially founded to protect civil rights workers, the Deacons' influence in the Deep South grew with a regional organizing campaign in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, along with chapters being founded in several Northern cities. The success and expansion of the program brought interest from the FBI, coverage by an oftentimes adverse media and linkage - oftenetimes quite temporary - with a number of revolutionary organizations. But through the comparatively brief time the Deacons operated - about four years - Hill successfully argues that the organization forced the federal government to aggressively enforce the 1964 Civil Rights Act and was the bridge to the Black Power movement that emerged later in the decade. The Deacons' legacy continues, as former members have strongly stated over the years that the group has never actually gone away. And, as Hill writes, "Finally, there is something inspiring in a story of people who stood up to injustice when everyone around them was afraid. That is a fable that will always serve us well." The Deacons for Defense lives in the souls of those who do their part on a daily basis to bring real justice to this country.

Great history of a politically incorrect civil rights movement
Format: Paperback
This is the true story of African Americans who choose not to turn the other cheek and wait for Martin's Dream to come true. Instead, they take up arms to protect themselves and their children from the present predations of racist, sadistic creeps. Very inspiring. There's a good movie from it, same name, starring Forest Whitaker.

An Obscure Facet of the Civil Rights Movement
Format: Paperback
The Deacons for Defense story has been buried since the mid sixties. The reasons for this loss are many. The Deacons don't fit the stereotype promulgated by the orthodox civil rights leaders and historians, nor does it particularly fit with the "conservative" historian view that anti-black violence largely was confined to a few terrible but soon overcome incidents [overcome with support of the Feds and the Press]. This book shows how pervasive the violence was and how the African-American Community especially the men, were scarred by the violence, and reluctant to join with the non-violent philosophy of the orthodox movement , as it destroyed their sense of manhood. The author does stretch at times to support his themes, especially the class differences between the Deacons and the mainstreamers, but this story is strong and should be better known. One amazing thing, with all of the hoopla about gun control, I'm surprised the NRA doesn't push the Deacon's story, as it does support the notion of an armed citizen being effective in countering an oppressive government. One can only surmise that the NRA supporters are also supporters of the repression in these instances. Ironic [but I digress].
