Do you have the tractor's tread width set right?
Does the plow need shares; I.E. no suck?
Are you putting the plow in the ground deep enough? It has to run totally level front to back.
Do you have the hitch adjusted so that it will "float" vertically on the arms? Even tho the tractor is "cocked" and running at an angle in the furrow, the plow hitch still has to remain level.
Even tho the plow has a "tilt" adjustment, it will help if you completely unhook that center link until you get the plow leveled out. All the center link is used for is to lift it out of the ground anyway.
When adjusted right, the center link pin should just "dance" and rattle around in the eyes when the plow is in the ground. Shouldn't be any pressure on the center link in any way.
