Yes, as Rusty indicates, the slice is a clean break of the soil at the top of the furrow to be. It hhould extend into the soil about 60% or more of the depth of the furrow, or until there is only an inch or so of blade above the soil under the hub. The alignment should be such that the mark in the standing part of the furrow made by the landslide is perfectly aligned vertically with the slice from the coulter. With no coulter, the plow must rip the soil rather than cutting it. Try ripping a pizza to make nice triangular pieces. The trash is also sliced into two paths, and allows covering the ends better. Lantz Coulters, a brand/style from history, Had a second cup shaped disc on the mount to assist in turning the standing edge of sod into the bottom of the furrow, in a pretty successful effort to reduce regrowth of grass/weeds. Many coulter designs are out there. some with ravy ridges, others with scalloped edges. I hope this helps, JimN
