Simply put, the first moldboard and share should cut its full width. Share just inside the vertical wall of the furrow. The second and third will take care of themselves. THe plow should be level in the ground with all shares cutting the same depth. The tractor right wheel should be nice and tidy in the furrow such that its sidewall is rubbing gently against the vertical edge. THe front wheel should be adjusted so that it stays in that location while it is also gently rubbing the vertical wall. Hitching so the tractor is pulling from its center is good, but 1 or two inches won't matter much. The land tire should be adjusted the same amount out on the axle as the furrow tire so the tractor pulls evenly. That is the best I have. I plowed with H and M for several years successfully. One last point. The people at the plow day will share and help. Do not expect this information to make you able to argue with anybody. Setting up a plow to be efficient and turn over sod so it covers is an art, not a science. Listen closely to those with M tractors pulling similar plows!! As a plow's landslides and moldboards wear, the little adjustments to tweak it perfect will happen. Jim

Once started it putted along pretty good. It
