Tractor Tim, Just a couple of cautions, Don't tie the plow trip rope to the seat, cause if the plow hits a rock or other hidden obstical, it will un-hitch from the tractor, and if the rope is a good one, it can pull the seat right off from under your "seat". Use a break-away-clip or a small, easily breakable rope in between the plow trip rope and the seat. Also the plow bottoms should be sanded to remove most of the rust or the plow will not turn the soil properly and will pull extremelly hard. Your sandy soil should scour the bottoms to a bright shine. Best to paint or grease the shiny bottoms when you are done, so you won't have to work with rusty bottoms the next time. Good luck and be cautious when plowing as all kinds of obsticals may be hidden and cause the tractor to jerk and lerch, just be prepared to push that clutch in quickly.
