turn plow adjustment
 

I have searched this website and can't find the way to setup a turn plow. I have read the Brinly manual, but I know that matt had a great write up on how to set up the plow. I want to say that matt said to pull one side of the tractor on a block, then lower the plow and adjust the bottom to be level with the ground. I am not 100 % sure. I wish I can find that thread. thanks for any help.

Did you try here...??? ..... Brinly

Did you want to wait for Matt to reply or you want other plow experts to answer your question(s)..??

I used a 4x6 piece of wood, and backed the tractor up on it, then lowered the plow to the floor and leveled it. This gives a 5 1/2" deep cut. About right if your using a 10" moldboard.

no, i dont care, who ever wants to help. any help will be appreciated. the problem that i am having is that it is not a clean cut all the way thru. it seems to "jump", and its seems like i have to fight it to keep it in the ground. i dont know if i have to angle the blade down more to make it dig. thanks for the help.

Ground too hard? Point worn out? Angle of the moulboard itself isn't correct? Do you need to nose it down a little more?

Mike Gaz... I had some issues as well with my plow. It would try to pull out of the furrow, never make a clean cut an just wasn't looking right compared to everyone else at the plowdays. I tried all the adjustments I could think of. Turns out the plow itself was bent. Once attached to the back of the tractor, just sitting flush on the ground, I could see a slight bend/twist in the frame of the plow. Got a diff one and what a different it makes. I plow cleaner deeper than i thought would ever happen. Just my experience tought me to always check the plow itself. Makes a world of difference.

Btw, you need to come down here to one of our plowdays. We've got one coming up at the end of this month. I'm suprised I forgot to mention that to you.

Thanks for the posts, i think i see the problem. When i set the plow on a flat, level surface it looks like it is crooked. When i hook it up to the tractor, and lift it in the air, it looks like it is tweaked to one side pretty noticibly. I think i am going to have to tweak it to straighten it out. thanks again.:American Flag 1:
