"Disc plows lift out of the ground just like moldboard plows to move from one field to another."
Assume that's the purpose of the crank and also to set the depth when plowing. I assume it rolls over dirt or gravel roads, not hard surfaces with metal wheels???
"Not sure what you mean by saying "that would amount to about 1/3 of the discs in the dirt". Can you explain that some more?"
Imagine if you had a pool of water behind the tractor and let the implement down till the bottom ⅓ of the disc's diameter was submerged. That would be the depth of the gouge made in the soil by the implement vs untouched soil, is the question. Like a 16 moldboard might make a 5 �" deep gouge for an assumed reference.....just trying to see if I'm getting where I'm supposed to be with it. I realize that soil condition makes a whopping difference as does whether or not you are making multiple passes to get to the desired depth.

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.
