It doesnt seem as though that there is a certain depth to pull an inline ripper, or sub-soiler. The way I was taught, was to set it so the ground fractures when you pull it along. Disturbing the soil very lightly barely at all. In most cases you dont have to do it every year. Every other or every three years seems to be a good rotation with row crops! When you do pull it you want to make sure you are going at least 3 MPH, so you can get a good vibration and break the compaction.
I will say that two years in a row our best yielding fields were hit with the Inline ripper. Which is a John Deere 2100 and does a fantastic job! We pull it with the 8520 and it makes it work, so if your pulling a 5 shank with anything less than 200 HP and it isnt 4wd, the ripper probably isnt doing a good job.
