Fairfield PARTS

Which opener have you got?

That one answer decides what fits. Not the model, not the year. Here's how to tell in under a minute, stood at the drill.

Our range covers 60/90 Series, ProSeries and N Series openers on John Deere disc drills. 50 Series we can't serve yet, and we'd rather say so than sell you something that doesn't fit.

Openers get retrofitted, rebuilt and swapped over a drill's working life. Two 750As of the same year can run different openers, so the model and the age tell you nothing reliable. Look at the opener itself.

Count the grease points first

It's the quickest tell and it settles most machines. Three grease points means 60/90 Series. One means ProSeries or N Series. From there it's one more look.

50 Series

Looks nothing like the others.

  • Completely different unit. If you are looking at the four and one is obviously the odd one out, that is this one.

No parts for this one yet. Tell us anyway, it counts.

60/90 Series

Three grease points.

  • Disc held on with nuts, bolts and washers.
  • Three grease points.
  • Three mounting positions for the seed boot.
  • Depth axle is welded square steel.

Parts in the range

ProSeries

One grease point, threaded disc hub.

  • Threaded disc hub, no nuts and bolts holding the disc on.
  • One grease point.
  • Dust caps on the pivots.
  • Two mounting positions for the seed boot.
  • Depth axle is fabricated steel.

Parts in the range

N Series

As ProSeries, but a cast depth axle.

  • Everything reads like a ProSeries: threaded hub, one grease point, dust caps.
  • The difference is the depth axle. Cast, not fabricated steel. Look for the rougher cast finish rather than weld lines.

Search by the number you already have

Every part lists the JD reference numbers it fits, because that's the number in your parts book and on your old invoice. Those numbers are compatibility references only. They tell you what our part fits, not whose it is.

Still not sure? Nothing wrong with that

Plenty of drills have had units swapped and nobody wrote it down. Email us a photo of the opener, or the number off the old part, and we'll work it out with you before anything is quoted. If it turns out to be a series we don't stock, we'll tell you that too.

Fitment is confirmed on every quote before parts ship. If we're not certain a part suits your opener, we say so rather than send it.
