plow question

[billonthefarm]

I dont have a book for this plow. Its a 735 5 bottom. Where should I set the furrow wheel on the tractor. It has been a long time since we actually used a semi mount plow and since this one is a variable width I dont know if it should be set like a regular plow or not. 30inches from the center of the tractor to the inside of the tire rings a bell but I'm not sure.
Thanks.

That sounds familar to me to. How many hours on that 8920?

I was just in the cab yesterday and I think its about 2100. Bought it new in 98 and it got most of those hours pulling a 12 row planter. It has had a pretty easy life.

How many acres do you run?

 

[billonthefarm]

800 acres corn, 400 soybeans, plus hay and pasture for the cows.

This is our spraying tractor. It did the planting before the 8920 came along. Its a 1992 and has about 2400 hours on it.

Would expect your demension would be close enough for that vari-width plow. I've used a six-16 for years here and I go 29 to inside of furrow tire. Pull mine with a beefed up 3388. Would imagine you've got enough horses to play with that 5. I didn't get all mine plowed last fall, am discing what I didn't get plowed. To much Black ground here and to late to be plowing, along with being to wet. Not to deep now.

Your right hand man should know, or doesn't he like the red tractors? Dave

always wondered why everyone runs the tires backwards on sprayers and ther equipment local guy has bar tires on his silage dump box and he also runs his tires backwards
