Can I pull a 14 inch two bottom breaking plow with a 3560 HST 4 wheel drive no loader?

Thanks
Rick

That's gonna depend on your soil type and your tire type. Also, whether or not your tires are filled. I'd think you'll be able to do it, but it's possible that on some situations (clay soil and unloaded R4s for example) you'll run out of traction.

I second MOTOWNBROWNE.

But only in HST/MED/LOW, 4-WD and full throttle. If you stall plowing difficult ground you can lift the plow an inch or two to reduce draft force.

I have an L3560 with air-filled R4/industiral tires. I pull a 2 X 12 Ford Series 101 Moldboard Plow in Florida sandy-loam in HST/MED/(low), 4-WD and full throttle.

When breaking sod, R1/ag tires are advantageous.

A 2 X 16" would be NO GO.

I pull 2-14s with my L3400 gear with no problem. 24 horse 2wd 8N fords pulled them for years. I dont think you will have any trouble.

Tires, and weather they are loaded is gonna be everything.

R4's and/or unloaded is gonna struggle in hard ground.

I have loaded tires and r1's on my MX, granted the tires are a bit bigger, but only a few hundred pounds heavier. I just plowed a fee acres of heavy hard ground with a 3-14. But couldn't do it in medium range without bogging down so much I'd might as well be in low range. So I left it in low. And this was a full 7-8" deep

Easy answer is no. Other answer is maybe-----maybe if you add lots of weight and load the tires. But then, the tractor becomes unsuitable for other basic tasks because it's too heavy.

How easily we forget. :)

I've plowed hundreds of acres with an 8N and a 2x14 plow.

Thought I was in heaven when I moved up to an 800 and 3x14s. :)

With R1/ag tires You will have no problem pulling a 2 X 14" moldboard/breaking plow, with or without the rear tires filled with liquid.

Have you plowed before?

Have someone who can teach you plow adjustment?

Plows are the most difficult implement to learn proper adjustment and operation~~~~~~
