You have nothing to loose, try it with the 5 bottom, if it don't pull it, drop a bottom. Many times guys don't set the draft control right. I was at a farmer's place and he told me his 966 was having a hard time pulling a 5 bottom. I went out with him and showed him how to set the draft control, he went up 2 gears and the tractor played with the 5 bottom.[/quote:bd980ade5e]
Ok, I'll ask it, how do YOU set the draft control? Common practice in my area is to set it as heavy as possible and leave it, so the plow will run a constant depth. Or at least so I'm told. I've never tried it. I've thought about playing with the draft control, but haven't. I always plow with the draft control maxed out, one of those "That's how Grandpa wanted it done" deals that I've not deviated from. -Andy
