4 bottom JD semi-mount

This is a big upgrade from my 2-16 3 pt. Near ran a semi mount so this is all new to me.

Need to know if you raise and lower the plow with the 3 pt while using the cylinder. I'm figuring you do. Then just set the position control to drop the plow at the depth I want while dumping the cylinder back down??

Do you drop the cylinder completely then adjust the 3 pt to get the plow level?? Or do I need stops on the cylinder??

Any pointers would help. Pulling with an AC 7000, front and rear weights and chloride, so should HP and traction should be OK.

Thanks in advance,
Rick

They suc in cornstalks not enough clearence, I used one for 10 years or more, but a pretty good plow.

Put the front down as you enter the furrow, put the back down next, plow to the end, pull up the front, pull up the back next, and repeat. The first time go deeper with the front, after that set your 3pt stop to lower the front so it is level, and plow on. Take you 3 rounds to get the hangf of it, & you'll be an expert.

When I first started using it, I kept hearing a grunting noise in the back of the tractor. I finally figured out it was the depth control on the lift arms moving up and down on uneven ground to maintain the depth of the plow.
