First off, lets go through some stuff.

You can find and download the K series service manual here:

You can find my article on static timing here:

How to measure a plow:

Here is a video of me plowing with a 10hp tractor:

As a note, I have since went to narrower tires on that tractor. That is a gear drive 10hp Cub pulling an 8" plow. You can pull a larger one though. Just what I have. That was the only video I had uploaded on YouTube and easy to link without uploading others. You don't need anything bigger than a 12HP to plow with.



On the motor, read this article:
