Paul: In those conditions you shouldn't need to touch your fast hitch control, to control depth. Your hitch lift does not control depth. You've got something missing, could you post 2 photos showing complete area from front rockshafts back to rear axles. For plowing there are linkages from each front rockshaft down to hitch, one controls the depth and the other controls the side tilt of the hitch. I can't see the one on right but then photo is not close up either.

I have much the same plow, just hitching is different, your 2 point and mine 1 point. My 130 would waltz through those conditions plowing a uniform 6" deep in 2nd gear. The lack of coulters in sod will make it bit more difficult.

It can't be very old or thick sod, or you would never plow without coulters. Again I suspect geography has some effect on this. Around here grass sods more than 3 years old would just tear ragged, and half the furrow would turn each way.
