 Topic: B Power!
Posted: 04 Dec 2011 at 4:26pm |
I purchased a Oliver Plowmaster Model 100 today and gave the B a little workout. The nay-Sayers say that a B can't pull 2 bottoms but here it does! Granted the soil was pretty easy to work. Need to find a big field to play in! My first time using a trail plow. Need to do some set up adjustments but otherwise for a former lawn ornament it did pretty good. [TUBE]RX2MueRvu2I[/TUBE]

Nice little B. Those are strong little tractors. Mine handles a two disc Athens plow just fine, especially after the front end of the tractor gets a little air under it.

Charlie:
When you find a bigger place to play, try second gear. It should handle it just fine if the ground isn't too tough. My C walks the dog with the 2-12 Wiard pick-up plow and also handles a 2-disc Athens plow very well. It's a blast to show up at a plow day and hear the nay sayers whisper about how the tractor is too small! I just wish there were more plow days in our area.
