We have a 6B Kvernland plow on the farm. It has been parked for 3 years now and we went back to our old Case 5 bottom in-furrow plow. It would not plow a decent furrow to save your butt. I spent hours trying to get it to stop dogging off to the unplowed land with no success. The tail wanted to pass the front of the plow. I finally figured it out, but to cure the problem would require a lot of torch work and welding. These plows were of a modular design and the wrong main frame had been used in the plow. The draft beam and main plow beam were meant to be incorporated into a larger 7-8 bottom plow. all the anchor points for the draft beam on the main beam are at the 5th bottom. These anchorages should be up by the 3rd bottom for a 6B plow and a shorter draft beam should have been used. The selling dealer should have read the set up instructions better. The ware parts for Kverland plows are also ridiculously expensive. It costs us 70% less annually to maintain and operate the old case plow with Radex bottoms and we have eliminated one secondary tillage trip that was required to smoothen out the poor plowing job that the Kvernland left.----- ----Loren
