Mikez sounds like we are both thinking the same thing, without the book I dont know the correct part names. I can see if the plow is not level while in the furrow, and its tilted to the right, the shares would be tilted away from the ground preventing them from digging in. Tilt to the left to level the plow and hopefully she will dig in. Sounds logical.

Could the tail wheel be too large?  Looks like if it went down any further it would rub the frame.  I have that same plow, but the snap coupler version, and have no trouble with it going to proper depth.  Can be seen it action on you tube /Mattpehl
Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.

If you have a long level piece of concrete, it is fairly easy to set a plow before you go to the field.
Determine the depth you desire.
Lower the plow.
Place blocks, which are the same thickness as the desired depth, under the left rear tractor wheel.
Lower the plow.  Place a board, equal thickness to the height  of the point, to level the  shear.
Adjust the hitch to a level position (side to side and front to rear).  A carpenter level works nicely. 
Adjust the gauge wheel to the desired depth.
