Finished plowing with the 656 and JD 555H 3-14's trailer plow yesterday. Posted some pictures hopefully (first time trying to post pictures on this site).
Here are some stats: 17 total acres plowed, 19 hours total elapsed time on hour meter, 62 gallons of gas consumed (3.6 gal./acre or 3.3 gal./hr.), 2.5 quarts of oil consumed.
Total weight of tractor with liquid ballast and wheel weights is 8,500 lbs. Plowed in 2nd gear, plowed 8-10 inches deep, had to use the TA quite a bit.
Does the amount of gas and oil used seem about right or was it too much?
