wheelhoss 2 #3 Posted March 20, 2012 Thanks but how do you set it up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,568 #4 Posted March 20, 2012 If you want to plow 5" deep set the tractor on a flat concrete surface with the left rear tire up on a 5" block. Now set the plow behind the tractor on the same flat surface. Slide the plow up to the hitch and adjust the plow adjustable link until it will connect to the tractor. The plow bottom needs remain flat on the concrete surface. This duplicates what happens in the ground. If the plow wants to come out of the ground in use tip the point of the plow down a 1/2 turn at a time until you get the 5" depth you want. If it wants to dig deeper than 5" adjust the plow tip up 1/2 a turn at a time until is holds a 5" depth. This is called adjusting the plow suck. Garry I should have written raise both left wheels and set on 5" blocks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tgranthamfd 28 #7 Posted March 21, 2012 This should be a link to Brinley's web sight set up information, I printed this one and saved it so I could take it out with me. It is very informative. Hope it helps out. http://www.weekendfreedommachines.org/techinfo/plowsetup.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
farmer 1,075 #8 Posted March 21, 2012 That Brinley write up is spot on Terry, I used it when I first got my plough. Should be pinned up in 'Implements and Attachments' permanently. :twocents-twocents: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tgranthamfd 28 #11 Posted March 22, 2012 That Brinley write up is spot on Terry, I used it when I first got my plough. Should be pinned up in 'Implements and Attachments' permanently. Got to give credit where credit is due, when I found this information it was posted by another member on here, a couple of years ago. catman81056. I found it very helpfull, just passed on some good information to you folks. I totally agree with the idea of this info being pinned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
