Well I just got the wheels back on the old JD #44 2-14 and it looks great. All greased up and ready to hit the dirt. Now, I have driven quite a few tractors and have done some plowing but with hydrolics. How does a guy get started with the arm/lever operation? The one on the right is for depth, correct? And the one on the left is for leveling? SO I drop it down and just figure it out or is there a method to the machine?

MinnesotanH: When looking from the rear of the plow, the left lever is for depth and the right lever is for leveling the plow. The tail wheel is frequently overlooked and misunderstood. The tail wheel actually levels the plow front to back. It is hard to mess this adjustment up too much. Different operator"s manuals may have different specifications, but I would adjust the tail wheel so that you can fit your fingers or a pencil underneath the heel of the landside.

Get a manual for any brand plow and read it or find someone who can help when you sock the plow for the first time.

Standing behind the plow the lever on the right is for leveling to the plowed dirt and the lever on the left is for giving the plow shares more such to stay in the ground. Then the depth is controlled by adjusting the tail wheel.
