I found a 3pt. 2 way plow 3-4 bottoms, not sure of model #. I was wondering if I could lift it with my 880, it looks very heavy even with 3 bottoms. I think it would be very neat at the plow days if I could actually use it. thanks, Frank

Where's it at? If I could get one for our 1855 for a reaosnable price I think it'd be great!!

btw- a 4-16 behind our 18 is plenty...

Thanks for the replies on the plow. It's a oliver plow and you can drop 1 bottom off to make it a 3 bottom which is what I would do if I got it. But I think I'll pass on it as I'm not sure as to what kind of 3 pt I have and it's priced kind of high if I couldn't use it. If anyone is interested it is dwn at Yoder and Frey Auctions in Archbold Ohio. Frank

Frank, Are you asking about a Oliver 2 way or are you asking about another brand, and if it would mount on your 880?

Oliver made four different 3 point, 2 way plows from about 1959 up to the 1980's. The four models were: The 6240 2 or 3 bottom. The 6241 2 or 3 bottom.
The 6341 3 or 4 bottom.
The 6342 2 up to 5 bottoms.

You said the plow you are looking at is a 3 or 4 bottom model, and if it is, then it is most likely the 6341 model. I am sure that plow would be too heavy for a 880. Also the Hydra Hitch or the Power Traction hitch do not have any built in draft control, so the only way it would work is with a guage wheel.

Chris wrote an article in the Nov/Dec 2005 HPOCA magazine about Oliver 2 way plows. In the article he talks about the 6240 model, and that is the one designed for the 880. One of the biggest problem with using a mounted plow or a 2 way plow on the Power Traction hitch is, the arms don't lift high enough for the plow to clear the ground very good. Oliver had a kit to fix this problem, but I do not know how well it worked. The Power Traction hitch worked the best with the 5440 semi mounted plow. Thats the one with the small caster wheel on the back.

Well how does it roll over? does it just use a chain and a hydraulic cylinder or does it use only an 8 inch cylinder. There were 3 of them around on 1650 Oliver's and it was a load to pick them up as 3 bottom plows, a 4 bottom is a load for a 1750-1950 Cat. 2 hitch. Do you have a power traction hitch or a hydra-hitch? We had a 2 bottom for a short wile on a 770. Add plenty of weight up front. Also since you don't have draft control, do you have a gauge wheel?
