Its should handle 3-16's or maybe 3-14's, not sure on that one, but its fwd and the rear tires are ballasted with very good tread. Even then, in 4wd, and its my first time trying this plow on it, it hung up in these heavier soils on the steepest part of the slope of that patch. More or less a traction issue in that one pass. I did adjust it level both ways in the furrow, the ends on my factory top link were not even in the tube or barrel of that top link, I have since free'd it up and the ends are now equal so I can adjust it all the way. So it could have still been nosed down a bit too much, + it has new shares, shins, and landsides. Those shares did catch easily and it did trip a few times on rocks in the subsoils. Whats funny, is that I've had my single bottom 110 Ford, (shear bolt protected not trip back) and I've run it through the worst areas of round rock in one of our fields, (it too has a new shin and a heavier rock share), it never sheared a bolt, it really adjusted well to my 850 ford and pulled very easily in most soils, just not so much near the perimeters of marsh areas. It just glides along and does quality work once its set and adjusted as it should be.
Well anyways, not about me here, but thought I'd add that in regards to plowing, all of these make a good tractor for the smallest of ones needs, larger gardens, utility work, problem is you have to source all the good implements, and its taken me a few years worth to do that, but well worth it now. Sounds like that's what he's embarking on and its a good place to post this one for discussion with all the experience of everyone here!

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
