You want your pull point to br along a line 1/3 of the way over on your second moldboard, or about 20 inches from the inside of the furrow wheel. First you need to set the spacing on the tractor wheels to give this spacing from the inside of the right drive wheel to the center of tractor, then set the left wheel to match. Very important to pull from the center of the tractor.
With the tractor wheel spacing set you can now set the center of pull of the plow drawbar. First check to see if distance from point of first moldboard to inside of wheel is just over 14 inches, usually 16 inches works well. Now move over to 1/3 way on second bottom and make a parallel line through hitch point of plow drawbar. This will give proper draft of the plow.... Gene
