You are kinda throwing several issues together here, not sure we are understanding you right? Are you saying if you try to plow deep, the plow will not trip at all & the wheel slides on the ground on the _down_ trip? Is it just that the plow will not go into the soil & so the trip wheel is skipping lightly on the soil rather than resetting itself for the next rope tug? Or am I misunderstanding totally? Or is something not tripping properly, bad trip mechinism? Dad had drab green plows around here, but was real common to see a 100lb rock on top of them to help it penetrate, and tire chain on the left wheel to help it get back up. Dad would plow a _very_ shallow marker on each end of a large field, going through this was hard on the equipment & driver, but helped the plow to 'suck up' & raise as it rolled through this 2" deep fresh dirt and could catch that lip & suck down on the trip side. If a plow does not enter the dirt & suck down, it is worn out lays (shares) 90% of the time, tip isn't pulling the bottoms down. Could also be fore/aft adjustment of the plow, or very, very dry (or compacted) clay soil as well. If we aren't covering your problem, might want to try re-explaining it. Sometimes things look so simple, but take 1000 words to make us knotheads grasp it. :) --->Paul
