Can't help you with the tractor hyd settings. Wrong color for me, but I can coment on the plow, as it has many similarities to the older Case 3300 series plows. The mechanical depth stop on the tail wheel is very critical to doing a good job of plowing and also critical to the operation of your draft/depth control system on your tractor. The d/d control system leverages the weight of the plow and draft weight of the soil against the tail wheel. and if that is not set correctly, nothing in the d/d system or plowing depth will be consistant. As for the acumilator, you need to have a precharge of nitrogen in the internal bladder,(checked and charged through the valvestem) on the other end of the bottle. It has to have a minimum of 1250# of precharged nitrogen, and perhaps more depending on plowing conditions. The hose that you connect and disconnect is to charge the "closed loop" hydraulic reset system. The nitrogen blatter is an air coushion that holds the bottoms engaged in the ground. Works like a spring. When a bottom hits a rock it folds back forcing oil out of the reset cylinder and compressing the nitrogen even more. When the bottom clears the rock the nitrogen forces the oil back into the reset cylinder, returning the bottom to it;s working position. If the nitrogen precharge is low and you apply the hydraulic charge (minimum of 200# over nitogen precharge) 1450# you will colaps the bladder and when you hit a rock, there is no place for the oil to go and you will rupture a hose, break mechanical parts, or ruin the acumilator. They are becoming hard to find. We had one fail last year and managed to find one in an IH 1420 combine hyd system. The hose on the front of the bottle only needs to be connected to the tractor to charge the reset system, and then you close the turn knob tightly and disconect from the tractor. The gage in the pic should stay at 1450# min. after charging system off tractor hyds. If it doesn't hold this pressure, you got external hyd. leaks or the bladder is bad. Good luck. Loren, the Acg.

Today's Featured Article - Bad Vibes - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the strangest ways to communicate with our tractor is to ask it how it feels. "Ask it how it feels," you say? Yup, ask it how it feels. Now, as with the other articles in this series one has to be able to hear what 'ole blue' is trying to say in response. The nice thing about our old iron friends is that they are usually quite consistent in their response, rather unlike some people I know who might change what they say due to the weather or other mitigating circumstances. But since t
