I seen an allis plow advertised for sale a few months ago, and told the guy back then that I would take, but we agreed that it best we wait for good weather before I get it. Well, it was good weather today, so I went and got it. (also the first time I seen it). It is a six bottom mono-frame, but has shear bolts, not auto-reset. One thing about it that I have never seen on a plow before is that instead of coulters ahead of the bottoms, it has a concave disc in front of each bottom. Don't quite get the jest of that. I guess it would be considered a semi-mount, as it mounts to the lower 3 pt links, and has a tail wheel. The cylinder is missing from the tail wheel, so if'n someone knows what size should be on there, or has a genuine allis one for sale, let me know, please. I don't think this thing has seen 200 acres, as there is no wear on it at all. Maybe my kid can help me post pictures of it tomorrow. Anyone know from this description what model it might be? Oh, also it is made such that looks like it is made to be a five bottom, and the sixth bottom is an add on, but all allis stuff. Darrel

Those concave coulters are the stuff. They were an option. HTH Tracy

A lot of them around here like that. It started turning the soil before the shear got there.

The Yetter coulters were to help cover trash. I would not recommend them on the lighter 50, 60, 70, or 80 series plows because the increased side draft caused the landslides to wear out faster.

Sounds like a 2000 though it could be a 9000 or 3000. I have a 2000 and haven't sheared a bolt on a bottom yet. 3000 tends to be more bottoms than 2000. I have manuals and parts books, but not scanned.
On my 4x18 2000 Monoframe the rear cylinder was 3-1/2 x 8. I cracked the end of that using it on a green implement and a 3 x 8 cylinder has worked fine on the Monoframe plow.

Early 2000 Monoframe plows were 16" bottoms. At the same time the 3000 series were also 16" but either a trail or on-land semi mount hitch and usually 6 - 8 bottoms. The later 2000 Monframe plows had more clearance and were 18" bottoms. At the same time the 2500 Monframe plow also had 18" bottoms but was only a trail plow with 6-8 bottoms. All plows were available with either shear bolt, toggle trips, or hydraulic re-sets.

Sounds like a 2000, a 3000 was onland hitch, I have one like you describe but mine is trip bottom, I think they show the concave coulters in the book as an option, just a standard 3 1/2 by 8 cylinder on the back, haven't used mine yet but I have a 3-18 hyd reset I used with my 185, also have a 4-16 I would like to fix up.

Thanks for all the input, guys. This plow probably won't see ten more acres of use in the rest of my life-time, but I hope to play with it a little. It's allis, and the price was right, so I had to buy it. Darrel
