I realize everyone does things differently but here is something that might help you. First, lay your rows off using only the rear plows and the rear plows should be adjusted so that they trail right in the center of the rear tires. Once the first row is laid off, use the furrow created by the rear plows in the previous row to align the tractors tires for the next row. This keeps your rows straight and maximizes the number of rows in the garden. When the garden is planted, you can lower the front plows and tractor will just follow in the furrows previously laid off. You should continue to lower the rear plows while cultivating to keep furrows from filling up with the loose dirt created by the front plows. All this assumes that front and rear plows can be lifted independently of each other similar to the Farmall Super A. The biggest benefit of this method is that it prevents the constant steering adjustments that have to be made trying to keep your row straight and not plow up the plants while cultivating. Basically, you are using the furrow created by the rear plows to always line up the tractor tires on the row. If this is done correctly, you can actually turn the steering wheel loose while cultivating and not have to make the constant steering adjustments. Hope this helps. I have used this method for many years with Farmall Super A.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
