    Our 504 made a whining sound too.

    Ford 142 plow

    Interesting that Ford gave it the same model number whether it was a mounted, semi-mounted or pull type. I don’t think the Ford semi-mount version is equivalent to the Oliver 546. The hitch and main frame beam is not like the one on an Oliver 546.

    Plow Day-May 2-Keystone Oliver Club

    I have a sales brochure for the 565-566-575 plows dated 7/71. The only on-the-go, automatic reset offered at that time was the hydraulic reset on the 575. It was offered in 3-8 bottoms. So it accommodated a wide range of tractor sizes. The 566 was offered in 5-8 bottoms and had cushion action...

    I’m guessing that your Dad’s 565 has the spring cushion trips. If you do go to work on it, and you are willing to take the time, start a project thread for us to follow.

    I saw the video with Chris Losey digging out the monster rock but have not yet seen the one where he found it. Yes, there were some times the spring resets on my plow were doing their thing.

    The 826 did well. I was running in first gear, high range; about 5 mph. After a couple of rounds, I stopped and adjusted the rear coulter to run deeper, hoping to leave a cleaner looking furrow. I think it helped. I’m really happy with how the plow turns the soil.

    Just one more. I saw this on my coulter as I was going down the field. The blade had sliced right in between the coils. What are the chances that it hit it just right for that to happen? Better that than finding it sticking out of the tire!

    Plow Day-May 2-Keystone Oliver Club

    I’m with you; I’m having too much fun plowing and find it hard to make myself stop and take photos of other people. I was fortunate to have had another club member’s daughter take photos and send them to me. Also, our host farmer is a partner in Forrester Farm Equipment and he had one of their...

    I’m a little late getting this up but then again it isn’t like it’s breaking news🙂 We had 15 people plowing, eight using Oliver plows. Forty acres plowed.

    How were these row crop-wheatland tractors different from both of the row crop or standard models?

    Oliver 546 Plow-Years of Production

    I have this model plow that I bought used. I want to make a show display sign for it and would like to list the years this model was made. Based on past posts on discussion forums, I understand it was made beginning in the early 70's and continued for some time after White branding, the color...
