This did not use a 3 point--much too early. It was an HM 150 disc plow with three disks. Semi mount because the heavy cast wheel stayed on the ground. That wheel was steered by a rod that attached to a bracket on the front wheels (NF in this case). Pulled underneath by attaching to a bracket bolted to the clutch housing. Lift mechanism, etc was bolted to the inner clamps on the axle housings. Used 2 cylinders mounted in front of the rear axles alongside the clutch housing -- used the triangular lower part of the belly pump. Disc plows as opposed to moldboards were used mainly in the south, in this case south Texas. Advantage was that it stayed on the tractor and was manuverable, could be backed up. Disadvantage was also that it had to stay on the tractor, and had to be removed to use anything else. Could be mounted in about a half hour if I was lucky. Another disadvantage as compared to a trailing plow is that if it hit a wet spot in the field and I wasn't paying attention it swung the rear out. Under rather poor soil conditions I had to ride the left brake. Most of the time it was ok. I was always glad to take the thing off when done plowing.
