I used to spend a lot of time in front of a rollover, we're real hilly here, and have terraces.
I agree that the plow will want to roll out of the furrow at times.
In a perfect world, if you set it up level (that's level WHEN PLOWING), it ought to run good. But sometimes you hit something that brings the plow up out of the ground a bit, and it can start to tilt. Especially with an old hydraulic system that allows the roll cylinder to creep. In that case, keep an eye on it, and hit your remote to take the creep out of the cylinder once in a while. (This might be BS far as your plow is concerned, I ran an Oliver rollover that might be completely different)
My plow has one of those gage wheels that flops over when you roll the plow, and sometimes it didn't catch on the stop that prevented it from swinging. I believe (Gawd, it's been a long time since I used that thing) the plow would bury itself with a real good tilt towards the land side.
I'd guess you have a sliding depth stop on the 3pt lever quadrant. They're nice, but not an end-all-be-all when running a mounted plow. Variances in the ground can cause you to run too deep, or too shallow. Keep an eye on the plow. I think I spent more time turned around than I did looking forward. Still do as a matter of fact :lol: I don't trust anything to run right, always keep an eye over my shoulder.
Old timers will tell ya, that you don't have to go any deeper than what it takes to make a good seed bed. 8" is good.
Anyways, it's a drizzle day here, can't really get much done, so's I gots a lot of time to annoy people :D You'll get it figured out.

Today's Featured Article - The Ferguson System Principal An implement cutting through the soil at a certain depth say eight inches requires a certain force or draft to pull it. Obviously that draft will increase if the implement runs deeper than eight inches, and decrease if it runs shallower. Why not use that draft fact to control the depth of work automatically? The draft forces are
