Make sure your right rear wheel, on the inside, is the same as the inside of yor furrow wheel on the inside when both tractor and plow are in an straight line. To do this, lay a board along the inside of your right rear tractor wheel. It should line up with the inside of the plows furrow wheel. If not, adjust the V toungue hitch linkage until it does. Try not to adjust the drawbar. Ive forgot, since u got an H u can adjust the rear wheels in and out, so jack up the tractor and line the rear wheelup with the furrow wheel on the plow. In doing this, lay the board even with the furrow wheel and adjust the tractor wheel, not like what I said before, which is for non adjustable rear wheels on ole tyme tractors like mine. If your shares are good, adjust the leverslike so. on the first pass, raise the right lever (looking at it from the front) to 2/3 notches from the back. Keep the left lever about center. If it will not pull this, lower the right lever 2/3 notches, After getting the first furrow plowed, briong back the right lever to around center of the notches. Look back. If the diret is going over the back of the moldboard, instead of being thrown beside it, its too deep. Also, if the tractor has to be cluthced often, its too deep. If the plow skips up and rides above the groud, and if you can see 1/2 the moldboard a good part of the time, its too shallow. Do not over grease the trip mechanism, or it will think on its own, and trip when it wants. Hope this helps
