I plan on taking my B to my plow day this Sunday with a mounted plow which is also hydralic too. What do I need to look at and set give me some idea as to where to start. I am a retired farmer so do have some knowledge as to what to do, just have not used this set up yet. Thanks Dave

The plow for a B or C needs to be hitched much the same as a walking plow for a horse. the front controls depth and the rear levels it. From my experience with a B, the drawbar should be in the higher set of holes, that is the mounts should be higher off the ground. Then the hand lever and connecting link should be set so the the drawbar is about parallel to the ground. The rear should be set about 8 o'clock to 2 o'clock and then level it from there. To start the first furrow the hand lever can be lowered and then raise it to a good working setting.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

Ok thanks if I understand the bolt holes on the back hitch sets the angle for the depth.
