INITIAL HITCH AND PLOW ADJUSTMENTS

FIG .5

FIG. 5 . Prior to usi ng th e plow, it is recomm end ed th at it be
pre -ad j usted. Th is is ac co mp lished by m ounting the plow
t o th e tr act or , and (on flat g ro und) rai sin g and bl ockin g th e
left side of tr acto r six to seven inc h es. (This sim ulates t he

OPER A T IO N:
Plow Adjustments
WIDTH OF PLOW CUT - After plow has b ee n p rop erly
assembled and adjuste d accord ing t o inst ruct io ns, w idt h of
p low cut shou ld be approx ima te ly 11 in ches t o 12 in ch es

W ith plow raised slightly off ground , adjust t h e lower li n ks
and upper lin k so t he plow bottom is level w ith t he ground.
Place the hitch in the float position . THE PLOW SHOULD
REST.,.£9MPLETELY FLAT ON THE GROUND. Next, readjust the uppe r lin k so the back part of the plow is approximately Y4 " off ground.

L INKS

7 . NOTE : When ext rem e or heavy plowi ng c o nd iti o ns are
encountered, it may be desirable to reduce plow cut w idth
rather than plow depth , in order to reduce tractor lo ad ing.
To f ind best width of cut, move beam to ri g ht along mast ba r
one i nc h at a ti m e until optimum cut w idth is obtai ned .

Loosen two bolts attach ing plow bottom to standard; turn
land adjusting bolt clockw ise two turns; ret ighten plow
bottom attaching bolts securely. Repeat adjustment as
necessary until plow follows correctly. Plow is proper ly
landed when running clearance between lower links an d
tires is approximately equal and upper link extends
straight behind tractor.

LEVELING ADJUSTMENT - When tractor running in pre viously plowed furrow , at desired depth and width of cut,
stop tractor with plow in ground and view plow from rear .
Plow standard should appear near vertical from g round . If
plow standard appears to be leaning to the right, raise R.H.
hitch link by turning R.H. lift link control clockwise, or lower
L.H. link by turning L.H. lift link control counter-clockwise.
The opposite adjustments would apply when plow standard
leans to the left.
DEPTH ADJUSTMENT - The plow point pitch or suck is
controlled by 3-point hitch top turnbuckle link. Shortening

COULTER ADJUSTMENT - Coulter should be adjusted to
slice 2 "-3" deep. While making this adjustment, the coulter
limit stop pin should also be set to preven t coulte r from
swinging into plow beam or bottom. If properly adj usted,
coulter will be free to swing outward a lim ited amount from
beam, but will not be free to swing i n to touch plow beam or
bottom .

upper link will cause plow to go deeper; lengthening upper
link will cause plow to run shallow. With upper link adjusted as in Fig. 5 , plowing depth should be 5"-6" when
tractor wheels are running in prev iously plowed furrow. Al ways readjust gauge wheel after changing plowing depth.

WHEN TO PLOW - Make sure the ground is i n proper
plowing condition before starting. Never plow when the
soil is wet. If it is too dry, it wil l be difficult for the plow to
penetrate the soil. Avoid low places, old roadways , paths
and other plces where the soil is overly pac ked. Expect t o
have trouble with a thick sod which has not been plowed in
several years. However, by finding the correct setting of the
plow and hitch, you should be able to do a satisfactory job
under most cond itions. High weeds or grass should be cut
down with the rotary mower before plowing .

FIG.7

LANDING ADJUSTMENT - The plow bottom w ill react
similar to a rudder wh ile ground engaged . If plow po int is
too farfrom left of beam, plow will tend t o over cut and leave
a ragged furrow wal l. This cond ition can be read ily co rrect ed by making the following adjustment:

-

TO BEGIN PLOWING - This plow usually works best at a
depth of appro ximately one -half its w idth ; i.e . 12 " plow:
6 "-7" . To turn plow po int into ground, lower plow w ith
hydraulic lift lever. Be sure lift control is in float position.
Note: In some soils it may be necessary to shorten t op
hitch link to get satisfactory penetration on first and
second plowing passes .

LAND ADJUSTING BOLT.

After making first two plowing passes, adjust top hitch link
so that lands ide heel runs from level to )14" up from bottom
offurrow. See FIG . 8 . After the dead furrow has been mad e,
the plow will level off by runn ing right tractor wheels in
previous ly plowed furrow. Variation in plow depth will
affect level attitude of plow. (See leveling instructions.)

Begin at point " X" and plow a furrow to the end of you r plot.
Fix your eyes on a tree or some d istant object in l i ne wi th
the m iddle of the plow so that you can guide your tracto r
and plow a straight first furrow to po int "A" , Note: Al FURROW

BOTTOM FURROW.

Layout your field to be plowed, and if poss ible, make it
rectangular in shape, about three or more times as long as it
is wide.

Note: It is eas ier to plow a few long furrows t han many
short ones. Leave some room at each end for turning your
tractor. Start plowing by laying off a dead furrow as
shown in FIG. 9 below.

ways lift plow before turning, and at point "B" , lower it
again and plow a dead furrow, piling the dirt on top of dirt
from the fi rst furrow. When you return to po int " X" and start
your real plowing with both the tractor's rig ht wheels in th e
furrow at po int " C", lev el out the plow wi th the top hitch
link. Plow i n a c lo c kw ise direction, always lifting your plo w

SPEED - Do not plow too fas t. Move steadily along so that
the earth will turn over and not fall back i nt o the furrow; by
plowing too fast, you will get an uneven plowing job and t he
dirt is apt to be thrown instead of rolled over.

LU BRICATION - Lubricate coulter and depth ga u ge
wheel at least once daily with standard type grease g un .
Note: When putting plow away, always wipe polishe d
surface and coulter blade with grease or oil to preve nt
rust, replace badly worn plow shares.

After plow ing a few rounds, it is suggested to check and
tighten all bo lted connections on plow, coulter and frame .
