   #1 if possible, find an operators manual for your Case plow  #2 access how worn out the landslides are. Worn landslides will allow the plow to track towards the land.
  #3 most 3pt plows have the ability to alter the orientation of the pullbar to help center the draft: Refer to operators manual.
   #4 Go find a snap coupler plow.

	If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

	I have the plow level on both axis. I've not went far enough to have to compensate for the wheels being in the furrow. If I lengthen the top link, won't that just put the rear bottom deeper?

	A WD-45 doesn't have a "depth" control. The plow needs a slip heel on the rear bottom or a tire beside the rear bottom. Traction Booster system must be working properly (if it can) with your type of 3 point hitch. Rear wheels must be set to correct width. 3 x 16's on a WD-45 in some soils may be too much plow.

	when you set the plow on the ground, how HORIZONTAL is the bottom relative to the ground ? ........ You can adjust your TOP LINK if your digging in too much.
	Like them all, but love the "B"s.

	1. I purchased a Case 3 bottom 16" moldboard plow. 2. Since this is not a snap coupler plow, I'm thinking that I need to use the position control to regulate the depth of the plow. When I drop the plow to the ground and start forward with the tractor, the 3 point hitch arms stay at the predetermined level, but the plow trys to go to the center of the earth, raises the front end off the ground, and spins out. 3. This probably should have been my first statement, this is a gasoline WD45. Do I need to install a gauge wheel on the plow to prevent it from going to deep? 4. The tires are filled with calcium, but I don't believe to the max. 5. Any suggestions on what I need to do different? Thanks, JL
