40'splow on L3800

[merlynr]

I Purchased a 2-14's set of plows for my L3800 and after setting them up I plowed a new garden spot for the fall season. I test plowed a food plot for sil with minor success (more adjusting) and all was ok. For some reason I got the Kubota manual out and it stated the tractor would pull 2-12's max. When I plowed the sod for new it walked right thru it in 4 low and barely grunted at 6 inch depth. The plows are Ford-Ferguson and are in real good condition and maybe that's what helped

First cut can be hardest on new/never done before soil.
By the sounds looking at setup you done well..really well.

Measure across from the outside of one main beam to the inside of the next.

Kubota is very conservative in what they recommend...
