It won't be too long here in PA before we have the plows rolling in the field. So I wanted to ask everyones opinion on the use of the O/U in the field. I have read on here in the past about it and would like clarification. Can I run in overdrive continously while moldboarding? I am going to be pulling a IH 720 5-16 with a 1850D and on this ground, I'd like to have the option of dropping 2 speed on some of the hillier sections, unlike our IHs which you have a limit on how far you can gear up, because you only have one speed to drop with the TA. Or would running it in DD be prefered?

TIA.....

i realize the question here is about using o/u while plowing, but it made me think. I was told once not to run in underdrive while baling hay with a small square baler. something about the rocking motion was hard on the sprag clutch? (constantly engaging and disengaging). is there any truth to this? has anyone else heard the same?

Run it where ever ya want, what ever gear has the best pull. For us, 3rd direct is the best and occasionally we can put in in 3rd over. Othertimes we have to drop to 2nd, and in those feilds over is great because then we can really slow down when we hit a tough spot.

Unlike IH, you can run the O/U where ever you want and never have to worry.
