John Deere 494A & 495A Corn Planters Operator's Manual

This is the Operator's Manual for the John Deere 494A and 495A corn planters, covering setup, planting adjustments, marker operation, attachments, lubrication, and beginning- and end-of-season service across 64 pages. This is the factory document John Deere issued to 494A and 495A owners and is available as an instant digital download.

About the John Deere 494A and 495A

The John Deere 494A and 495A were toolbar-mounted row crop planters produced in the 1960s and 1970s, designed for 4-row corn planting in the standard 38-inch and 40-inch row spacings that dominated Corn Belt farming in that era. The 494A was configured for hill-drop or drill corn planting, while the 495A offered the additional flexibility of hill-drop or drill planting in a single unit without requiring separate attachment changes — the key operational distinction between the two models. Both used John Deere's cell-type metering mechanism, with seed plates that had to be matched to corn seed size (flat, round, or large round) and adjusted for target plant population. The attachment lineup available for the 494A and 495A was extensive, including dry fertilizer hoppers, liquid fertilizer units, trash kickers for minimum-tillage conditions, and multi-row extensions for 6-row and 8-row configurations. The 494A and 495A were also capable of planting soybeans and maize with the appropriate seed plates and population chart settings documented in this manual.

What This Manual Covers

This 64-page manual covers both the 494A and 495A with separate instructions where procedures differ between models. Key sections include:

  • Identification & Specifications — model identification views and factory specifications for both planters
  • Operation — preparing the tractor and planter; hitching and transporting; marker operation; planting depth adjustment; hill-drop planting (494A); drill planting (494A); hill-drop or drill planting (495A); soybean, maize, and plant population charts
  • Attachments — fertilizer and dry fertilizer hopper attachments; insecticide and herbicide attachments; trash kickers and minimum tillage attachment; press wheels, bands, scrapers, and rubber tires; row leveling blades and gauge shoes; double disk furrowers and disk coverers; six-row planting extension and eight-row hitch; beet seed hopper (494A); pea and bean attachment
  • Safety, Lubrication & Service — safety guidelines; lubrication points; beginning- and end-of-season service; timing the planter; runner alignment and rockshaft bearings; common planting problems and causes

Why This Manual Matters

  • 494A vs. 495A procedures documented separately: The two models handle hill-drop and drill planting differently, and the manual documents each model's specific procedures rather than combining them — essential when operating or setting up a machine you didn't buy new
  • Planter timing procedure: Correctly timing the metering mechanism is the single most important setup task for consistent seed spacing — the factory timing procedure documented here is the authoritative reference for both models
  • Seed plate and population charts: Corn, soybean, maize, and population chart tables are included with the correct plate selection for each seed type and size — the reference that operators reach for when switching crops or seed varieties
  • Troubleshooting common planting problems: Skip patterns, doubles, uneven spacing, and population errors are documented with their causes and corrections — the diagnostic section that's most valuable during planting season when there's no time to guess
  • Minimum tillage attachment documentation: Trash kickers and minimum-tillage attachments are covered for operators running reduced-tillage systems, which were becoming common as these planters aged into the conservation tillage era
  • Original factory content: This is the manual John Deere issued to 494A and 495A owners, carrying manual code OM-B25384

A Foundling's Felicity
This book or novel or whatever you may deem fit to call it has so many points in its favour that it's difficult to know where to begin. I think a rundown of a few of the myriad of characters that delight me personally might do for starters: Tom Jones - A young fellow with many "imperfections" if so they may be called, but a robust fellow with a "good heart." Prudence and what is commonly called virtue are not his strong suit - But may I remind the reader that virtue comes from the Latin word for "manliness"- Tom is certainly possessed of the word's etymological origins, if not of its modern usage (particularly in amorous matters)--And a good thing too, or we should have no story here to delight us! Squire Western- Another rambunctious character, who, for me, typifies all that is Eighteenth Century England. Every time he appeared in this book, whether it was to comment on wenching, wine, or riding to hounds a smirk would immediately cross my face followed invariably by chuckling by the end of the chapter. Henry Fielding - The author plays as much a part of the book as any of the characters with many prologues and prefaces and etc. For these, and for much of the rest of the book, I might add, the reader who has not had four years of Latin inculcated into him at an English boarding school would do well to buy the Oxford edition, which fully explains all the learned quotes - Also, as one who was thus inculcated but is inclined to laziness, the Oxford edition's notes prove extremely helpful also. Fielding also gives us a lively picture of the literary life of his time, which the Oxford footnotes do a deft job of explaining- In short, buy the Oxford edition. This review can not be comprehensive. There are simply too many characters to even make a go at encompassing them all. I'm merely describing some of the, to me, more delightful ones. The book as a whole is simply a joy to read, in its comic descriptions of all who will deign to admit that they are human, and of some priggish sorts who will not so deign. I can put it no better than Fielding Himself at the beginning of Book XV: "There are a set of religious, or rather moral writers, who teach that virtue is the certain road to happiness, and vice to misery, in this world. A very wholesome and comfortable doctrine, and to which we have but one objection, namely, that is not true." In short, this is a delightful ramble of a book which, while entertaining the reader not too attached to Sunday School, sheds light on how unvirtuous the virtuous can be, and how kind and good-natured the roguish can be as well as giving us as good a history lesson on the state of affairs in Eighteenth century England (with attention given to the Jacobite Rebellion etc.) as many a "proper" history does. Who, I ask myself, would not delight in this book? ---Well...for the priggish, there's always Jane Austen.

The Sidekick in Early-Modern Literature.
Tom Jones is probably the most influential novel in English history, pioneering elements like complex characterization, social criticism and authorial interjection. But you already knew that. What you want to know is, is this a good book for us in the 21st century. And here, it's not so clear. The dialogue is pretty brisk, and some of the exchanges (the stereotypical Whig Mrs. Western arguing with her Jacobite brother is a particular treat) are actually funny. The latter part of the novel evolves into a farce, with a dozen characters engaged in scheming against one another, while Tom and Sophia helplessly go along. Farce works better in drama, where it has a faster pace, but it's always a welcome mode of comedy. You don't see enough farces. Some of the characters are evocative (why do I picture Blifil as looking like Ted Cruz?) but some are not: Dowling is just a lawyer, and Mrs. Miller is a good woman, like thousands who have come since, and that's all there is to it. It's not as if every character needs to, or can, be a fully realized person, but the parts of the novel spent with these human plot devices do feel mechanical. But Mr. Partridge, Tom's traveling companion, is in a different category altogether, and he just poisons the parts of the novel that he features in (chiefly the middle third). Eighteenth Century literature has a depressing reliance on goofy loose-lipped sidekicks: Mr. Partridge, Hugh Strap, Humphrey Clinker, Andrew Fairservice, Friday. Sometimes they're servants, but sometimes they're just stupid friends. Part of this must be practical: It's difficult to follow a wandering hero (and why are the heroes of these novels always wandering? But that's a different question altogether) without giving him a friend to talk to. Maybe early novelists had a hard time sketching characters who didn't have a way to discuss the ongoing action. But mostly, I think this is the bad influence of Don Quixote, which was becoming increasingly popular in England during this period. Sancho Panza is OK, and he's certainly the funniest element of that leaden tome. But Mr. Partridge *is* Sancho Panza, cowardice, superstition and all, and one Sancho Panza was more than enough. You know? There's a limited number of things that a silly, selfless, lazy pal can do, and it's hard to read about the same old doofus, yet again.
