To get started in hard ground the the drawbar needs to be low to the ground to make the point dig in. The plow share or point must be in good condition. If the ground is hard, it will take 3 or more passes to get going. The first pass may only make a slight furrow. As the furrow wheel rides deeper in the furrow with each pass, the plow will go deeper. Also, the hitch has eccentric bolts where the hitch plate with the springs is bolted to the plow beam. You can adjust those bolts to tilt the plow side to side and make the point dig in better. If you jack the tractor up on the land wheel side (on a level surface) to the depth you want to plow and then let the plow down, the plow bottom should be level side to side and the landslide should also be pretty near level front to rear. The plow will also tend to push to the left some. This is normal, so when the plow is out of the ground, it will appear that it can't take a full cut because part of the share is behind the wheel.
