 Topic: Snap Coupler subsoiler questions
Posted: 23 Oct 2016 at 6:14pm |
|
I mounted my snap coupler subsoiler today. Very dry here and I wanted to make the 45 bellow a little.
It looks like a #3 just based on a google image search.
Where the shank mounts to the beam, there is a couple of pieces mounted either side of the shank, that ride on top of the beam. One of them has a couple empty holes in it. There's an empty hole in the beam. What are these for?
There's also a loose fitting piece behind where the lift link arm is welded, looks like a piece of flat bar with a couple twists.
It doesn't suck down very deep - bottom of the shank gets level and rides on the furrow.
Pretty sure some stuff is missing... does it have a beaming adjustment to set the angle of the shank, and thus set running depth?
Also got the 45 hung in 1st gear... gotta pull the shift lever and get it back aligned. The joys of 60+ year old stuff....

They will run deep if set right, here's Dave on his D17 at last year's plow day.  Michael Crowe on his WD45 K pulling a pin hitch unit.  I had my sub soiler behind Jerry's D14 running just as deep as the one's behind the bigger tractors, but I can't find a shot of him working it, sorry Jerry.

How weird this whole thing is. Brian F(IL) has the subsoiler I sold him. The one in the picture I posted first is of one I bought from Michael Crowe. I just got done using a different one tonight to subsoil up a couple acres, I bought that one at an auction in Indiana! I was subsoiling up a low spot in a bean field and didn't need the trash cutter as in the one I bought from Michael. This spring I hope to use the one pictured below, after I get it home. Thanks. Bryan

Yep, it's like Brian F's but has an extra part.
How is the angle set on this one?
I can see clearly on the screw type plow... not so much on this #3.
Thanks! I'll upload pics once I scale them down.

Looks to me like the sod cutter needs to come off as its only going as deep as the axle on the sod cutter.

And if any of you fellows really want to make your Allis snort I have an old pull type
subsoiler that has about a 3 ft shank on it.

In the first picture up above, what is the part attached on the back side of the point for? Looks like it would be to open up a tunnel down there!

That is a mole that does leave a temporary drainage tube behind the subsoiler.

In more than a few years dad used one with a mole to drain wet spots back in the ditch and rip a pass out through the wet spot and watch the water run for days and we also had a pipe that went in place of the mole and came up the back and out the top you could bury wire as fas as you could feed it in
