Dirt plow---
 

Well dirt plow was a bust. Nice boat anchor! Plow would suck in about six inches and everything came to a stop Nice holes from the tire chains though. Engine/clutch is willing Just need traction. Had the plow pre-shined. Has anyone bent a lift handle with a plow on? Took both arms on the handle and front wheels would come up before the plow would lift. Had to back out.:bash2::bash2:

holy man ive never had anything like that happen. Thats insane.:bigeyes:

Did you have your angle set correctly?

You have to adjust the amount of "point" the plow has with the adjuster handle, to much and the plow will just dig to china, to little and the plow wont dig in. Setting up and tuning in the plow must be done every time you plow due to changes in soil conditions. The best way to learn this art form is to attend one of the many "plow day" events held in the spring and fall each year. Dont give up yet, I have plowed many hours with just 7hp under the hood of either the model 70 or Original I used to have. I am setting up another Original to plow right now. Mike

Adjustment, adjustment, adjustment.....plus a spring assist for that manual lift would help.

All the more reason we need our own plow day Jerry, practice,practice practice!

I am working on finding a place to do some plowing. It won't be like a full blown plow day, just a place for some of us Mo. guys to do some plowing and B.S.ing! Hopefully by fall I can find a place.

Yep, we've got to get together and plow.

Hey Randy, what about the Adrian show? Last time I was there a guy was plowing or discing with horse drawn equipment. Maybe they'll let us run a couple of furrows with our Cubs...

I'm also going to check with our club and see who plows up the cane field on the fairgrounds.

Hey Jerry, maybe I can get away for a few hours this Sunday. Weather looks okay for now.

The reason why us Missouri boys don't have plow days is - plows don't do well in rock.:bash2:

I will try to find out about Adrian, I have a friend that lives in Adrian and he said he has a place I can plow anytime I want. I am sure he would let a few friends as well.
