Plowing with an F-20

Mark Poss · Oct 31, 2012

I am looking to pull a #8 2 bottom plow with an F-20. I will put the draw bar into the slots to get it as low as it will go but it still will be a lot higher than the farmall H that i usually pull it with. Will this be okay or should I try to add something to lower it? Thanks, Mark.

all my 20's and 30's have the drawbar support in the round solid mount hole on the top. i never put them in the long oval holes. i plow with a #8 just fine like this.

keep in mind you will have to completely adjust your plow to pull behind an F-20 to make it work correctly if you've been using it behind an H so your draft is correct

So the height of the draw bar doesnt matter? I knew I would have to hook toward the right to ride in the furrow properly. thanks for the input, Mark.

Read Page 15 & 18 of the tractor plowing manual

Wow.... thank you very much for posting this manual...I wish I would have had this weeks ago when I tried to plow with an F-20 for the first time.

Height should be 17-19 inches for proper line of draft.
