1. Install the plow on the tractor: Secure the
link pins to the lower
links with spring
pins.
Install the hitch upper link at the top
hole in the mast and
secure with the hitch
Pin.
2. Working on flat ground, raise the left side
of the tractor 6” - 7“ and block at this
height (This simulates a plowing
position - right tractor tires in furrow wall,
left tires on land.)
3. Raise and lower the plow with the
hydraulic
lift; the plow bottom should
contact the ground with the
lift lever in
the lowered or “float” position.
Next, raise the plow slightly off the ground
and adjust the upper and lower
links so
the plow bottom is completely level with
the ground.
Place! the hitch in the float
position and check the plow bottom:
it
should rest cornpletelyflat on the ground.
Finally, adjust the upper link slightly
so
the landside heel is approximately Vi‘’ off
the ground.
4. Align the plow directly behind the tractor
(upper link extended straight toward rear).
With
a straightedge (2 x 4, steel bar, etc.),
extend a line from the inside edge of the
right rear tire on back to the plow bottom.
(This simulates a furrow wall.) For the
plow to cut
12‘‘ wide (standard width). the.
bottom should reach this line.
To increase or decrease the standard
cutting width,
see PLOW ADJUSTMENTS
on the next page.
5. Set the gauge wheel approximately 5”
above the ground. This will provide a
controlled
6” plow depth and prevent the
plow from going too deep in
soft and/or
wet spots.
