In Reply to: JD disc plow posted by Olliejunkie on October 03, 2017 at 15:17:24:
I recently bought a very old plow that looks a lot like that except the front wheels are missing and maybe what seems to be disc scrapers for scraping the goey dirt off the discs. It's a 3 pt.....which doesn't need front end support.
I never ran one before and I got out and tried to understand it. Seems like it's made to cut a swath about 4' wide. With the discs being about 3' wide, that would amount to about ⅓ of the discs in the dirt. It's not adjustable laterally. The angle is a welded frame including the 3 pt connections. Unlike a drag type. It sticks a long way out behind the tractor. I'm pulling it with a 65 hp Branson 4wd and I load the FEL bucket with gravel to help keep the rear up in the air for transporting.
Filling in the blanks on how to use would be greatly appreciated.....Wink!
When I first moved out here in '79 the one like yours was quite popular. They were called "One Way Breaking plows", used in black clay rather than moldboards as they didn't gum up. This one I bought is the first one I have seen around here for sale and if I can figure out how to work it properly. I like the 3 pt option as it's just handier for me. On the subject subject of transporting, I don't know how the farmers back then got them from one field to another.

Today's Featured Article - Fasteners: The Nuts and Bolts of Nuts and Bolts - by Curtis Von Fange. The nuts and bolts of nuts and bolts is an interesting and essential piece of knowledge that applies to our older tractors. An improperly torqued capscrew on an engine head or a shear bolt that is too hard on the driving shaft of a bushog can create havoc and make an expensive and uncalled for repair. Let�s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
