We are in heavy clay loam here so I think a 15 foot disc, 20 foot cultivator, and 4-16 plow would be more than enough for it to handle. Thoughts? Thanks for any help! [Reply]   [No Email]

We are on heavy clay loam, although it is very well tiled. Had a 115 horsepower Case in front of the 4-16 this fall and in several spots it was all the tractor could handle. Plow was adjusted properly. Thanks for the help guys, I will probably see if I can borrow some implements from neighbours first just to see what the 2-105 will handle, don't want to invest in implements I can't pull :lol: [Reply]  [No Email]

Was told by an an old mechanic/farmer that the best way to tell if what yo're pulling is too much is to advance the throttle. If it just pours out more black smoke, but the rpm's and speed don't go up, you have too much behind you. [Reply]  [No Email]
