I have a wd45 with a three bottom plow. we are trying to setup the hydraulics. i am thinking there is a spring coming from the back of the hydraulic pump going up to the hand clutch cover? is this correct. there is a pin coming off the back of the pump where the linkage comes from the hitch. If there is a spring suppose to be there what size or how strong or does it matter? thanks |

| The spring doesen't have to be anything special.I have seen some very flimsy ones that still seem to work.Just has to keep a decent pull up on that lower pin. |

All the spring seems to do is keep the slack out of the linkage. Without it the plow will porpoise in and out of the ground, and not maintain a consistent depth, if it will stay in the ground at all. (The voice of experience) LOL ------------- Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives. |

rfdeere yes that is the one we are talking about. will try it out, I do that when the snap coupler spring moves the linkage rod moves and if the spring is on there it will raise the plow. not sure |
