8" plow

Recommended Posts

Picked up this nice little 8" plow to pull behind my 704 or 12  8 spd at plow days. I have another of the exact plow restored. I think it's a genuine :wh:  plow. Anybody know for sure?

I bought this one and it had an old Wheel horse sticker on it

(I sanded and painted around the sticker)

yours looks just like it

Just a wild guess, but I'd say any plow made for a slot hitch is for a Wheelhorse.

I bought one at the show last year and while it needed adjustment, did very good.

Nice plow Mike. I noticed that there isn't a colter wheel on it. I have a Brinley 8" plow with a colter on it. Is the colter really necessary or could I remove it from the Brinley?

I have a 10" Brinley with the wheel. The wheel is to help cut sod. I have seen guys plow with the wheel turned up and out of the ground. It depends on conditions

The wheel is called I believe a coulter. If it's there and not to much trash piles up against it, I'd keep it on as it reduces the pull required.

The coulter was an "extra" cost when these Wheel Horse plows where originally sold -according to some old price lists I have seen.
