Semi-mount plow on 2 cylinder tractor

deeretails · May 15, 2016

I've several 30 series two cylinder tractors, and I would like to pull a semi-mount plow with them. Has anyone figured out a way to retain the draft control feature
while pulling a semi-mount plow on one of these tractors? These tractors/plows are used mainly for plow day type events, with occasional actual field plowing. I've
toyed with the idea of using a quick hitch, offsetting the pin holes, just not sure how would work.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Thanks, spring is coming

Dad always used a quick hitch with his 720 and 4 bottom oliver plow. The 2010 used the load sensing thru the top link like a two cylinder and Deere made a special hitch for the f135 and f145 plows but a quick hitch will do the same thing. Tom

Our first diesel tractor was a Massey 180,which used top link draft sensing.We bought a Massey semi mount, plow which was designed to due that,and I believe it was the model 880.It had a triangle in the hitch which fastened to the 3 pt hitch of the tractor,and the plow was pivoted to the triangle below the lower links,which would push forward on the top link,as the load increased.

Last fall I pulled a 3 bottom F145H with my 620. It worked just fine without the draft sensing. You get lots of weight transfer being hooked to the lower arms. If you start to slip just lift a little on the front of the plow. It's no different than pulling the hydraulic lift trailer plow, when you start to spin lift a little. I did about 40 acres with the rig.

This is attachment we used , /from PC-783/ Tried Quick hitch but Couldn't get center link adjusted short enough to get sensing on tractor..

I will have new reproductions of the draft sensing attachment next month. If you can hold out until then.

Not sure about price yet.

Hey Tyler,

Is that being reproduced off the plow from Green Bay?
