very few if any farm tractors have pressure down.try shortening your toplink! that subsoiler pulls itself into the ground just like a plow.once its setting level on the bottom you cant make it go deeper regardless,even with pressure down you probably would just lift back of tractor.sortening your toplink angles blade down more .once its as deep as you want it,or as deep as you can pull.youve got it set.those folks pulling one that deep ,are either subsoiling sand ,which does nothing,or using tons of hp to do it!remember a subsoiler doesnt just cut a groove in the earth,it actually lifts the dirt around it breaking it up from the bottom,sort of like a plow in reverse.it takes a lot of power.and just between you and me not all soils benifit from subsoiling. its better done in the driest part of year,because if you do it when ground is wet it simply closes back up.
