In Reply to: Roll over plows. posted by DeltaRed on December 06, 2015 at 12:21:21:
Here is my JD 4200 3x18" rollover plow. I got help on this forum including DeltaRed learning about rollover plows. I am in La Crosse Wisconsin. I use this to plow for my neighbors. It is a hobby for me. The ground here in Western Wisconsin is hilly with a lot of strip cropping used. Not many plow anymore but those that do plow uphill to conserve the soil so a one way plow makes a lot of sense. Most ground is heavy clay, especially on the ridges.
I find I can cover a lot of ground. I leave a larger headland to aid in turning. The larger headland is quickly plowed when done since I can plow in both directions.
I got a manual for the plow, it was very helpful in setting up the plow on my 4320. I am still leaning. I find the 18" bottom can have a little trouble completely turning over the furrow as the slope gets greater. I have had good success with moldboard extensions on the last bottom and now plan to add them to all the bottoms.
I am finding wear parts are getting harder to find so when I find them I buy them. Some are very expensive. I would also like to learn how to rebuild those wear parts I have taken off, especially the landsides.
Of course the 4320 plays with the plow in the ground but it is heavy to lift. I want to modify my sway blocks also to give the plow good ability to move when the plow is in the ground but capture it when up and turning on hillsides. It can bang pretty hard when swaying on a hillside turn when the plow is up. I idle way up and turn as slow as I can.
I would like to someday find a 3x16" for my 4020. Of course it would have to be of recent enough vintage to get parts.
