The Smiths used the two devices on their mixed field crop operation outside of Port Colborne, Ontario where they grew mostly corn and soy beans for sale to livestock feed suppliers. They have farmed in the area for about the past fifty years. Specifically it was used on their John Deere 7800 series tractor and either their Tyler Patriot or Argo-Trend self-propelled sprayers. Mr. Smith also used the technology in his custom planting. - Function
-
To engage or disengage the EZ-Steer 500 system using a remove engage foot pedal. - Technical
-
To engage or disengage the EZ-Steer 500 system using the remote engage foot pedal, depress the pedal for 0.5-3 seconds and then release it when you pass the start of the swath. The system engages when the pedal is released. This is done to avoid accidental engaging. To disengage the EZ-Steer 500 system, just turn the steering wheel at the end of the swath, stop, or depress the pedal again. - Area Notes
