Setting up a moldboard plow

Hey guys,

I'm curious to know how one would go about setting up a moldboard plow to a tractor.

I ask this question because last week I helped a co-worker set up a Oliver trailer plow (3-14's) to his 560 IH. We are both a lot "green" on the subject, as not many have plowed around here in my 29 years (and even fewer used a old trailer plow) and the co-worker isn't a great deal older than I am.

We asked several folks locally that play with tractors and plows, but got a different way to do things from everyone we asked, so we did what we thought would work, and it seemed to plow ok at a plow day Saturday, but I'm really curious to know if we were on the proper track, or not even close..

Just cause it seems to work don't mean we did it right.. And I'd like to be a little knowledgeable on the subject.. Was always fascinated by plowing, and would like to learn more about it so maybe someday I can help a younger generation learn the technique as well. (but I have to do a bit of learning to pass down any knowledge)

Thanks in advance.

Brad
