Those who said it needs to be taken apart and reassembled are correct. All plows intended to operate with the right tire/s of the tractor in the furro need to have the three things:
} The cut the moldboard makes should be very near the distance from the inside of the right tire.
} The land slides on the bottom/s mist point exactly straight ahead.
} The share/s must be flat to the world when the right tire/s are in the furrow.
The first rule is the one you are encountering harshly. Flip the mounts to make it position to the right, then adjust the tractor wheel tract width to make it cut fully.
Land slides are the flat vertical plates that run from near the leading edge of the point of the share, toward the rear. These direct the plows direction in the field. if worn, or improperly adjusted, the plow will "Yaw" the tractor pushing the front to the right, or letting it pull crooked to the left. This can only be looked at dynamically in the furrow, and can be a problem few realize are causing issues.
The third adjustment is basically designed in, but needs attention at various depths of cut. it is adjusted using the left lift link of the 3pt length until all bottoms are flat to the land when cutting.
A tail wheel can also be valuable to keep the rear bottom at the same depth as the front one in a multy bottom plow. Pitch.
A fine rarely done method of setting these parameters is to use a square nosed shovel and uncover a typical cut by digging out the turned soil from one pass, and a little from the previous path to actually see the contours of the cut earth compared to the undisturbed soil not turned.
Colters are rolling cutters that can create a clean furrow by slicing the soil where the leading edge of the moldboard pickes it up. Kinda like scoring glass before breaking it. it also cuts through corn stalks and other trash to keep long material from looping onto the shank causing a plugged bottom difficult to clean (manually)

Your plow needs a shin. it is a wear plate missing from the leading vertical edge where the bolt holes are. you will permanently ruin that bottom with no shin. This is the best i have. Jim

Today's Featured Article - Seeing an Old Friend - by Joe Evans. Dad had a concrete contracting business starting in 1960. One of his first pieces of equipment was a Ferguson TO-35 with a Davis loader. Dad replaced the TO-35 with a MF 202 Workbull, essentially an industrialized Ferguson 35 I am told. Dad bought the 202 new in 1962, and I recall quite clearly going to the dealer with him to sign for it. ... [Read Article]
