It uook about 2 hours to get the plow to plow the way it should.
Lots of fine tuning.
Plows like a dream and i had fun

I've got a B-112 that needs some minor tiller parts..guess I should get off my duff, haul it into garage and 'get er done'.......only been 4-5 years......other 'things' get higher priority,sigh.... good news is you've got PICTURES of how it's setup, so next year, after a 'helper' plays with the cranks and knobs, you'll only need 1 hour to 'dial it it'.....

Looks like a great time to me! I've got a clone to that plow, never got a chance to use it yet. I think my 1650 CC will pull it nicely.

I've watched many you tube videos and wonder where those guys learned how to plow. Yours looks so nice and a even cover of the trash and a very nice furrow, Good Job. You should be very proud.

one trick I do is look far,far away to get straighter rows. Also I can 'feel' the right front wheel in the last furrow and keep just enough pressure to keep it there... I'm thinking if you plow 10,000 acres, you'll get good at it....

Gadzooks!!! I thought I had hills, yours are vertical!!! That little beast has some traction!  Kidding aside, very very nice. I have one, but the sleeve hitch on my Ingersoll 4020 (sorry for a red-color lol - but it's really a type of orange similar to my AC 6140) is not getting it right with the plow, fortunately I have a 42" Ingersoll hydraulic tiller for the gardens.

I need more than 200 characters for my "signature." I'd love to see that changed to 250!

I hear you on the plowing technique yes it drives me nuts too if I don't have nice furrows.
Lost of playing with adjust ments and patience.
Most of the you tube videos thoes aren't plowing to the correct depth.

I set all my plows so that when they go in the ground the full entire moldboard is covered with dirt there's no exposed area and is ware i get the nice job.
The funny thing is watching on YouTube those guys they seem to have a hard time pulling them when they go into the correct depth.

If any of you get a chance to plow with a G do it.
