I plowed three acres yesterday with my new #70 plow that is 4-14s. the field hasn't been worked in about 4 years. boy was it tight. I am in southwest michigan and we have recieved about an inch of rain since thursday night. I waited till it rained hopeing that the field would not be so tuff. hope to get some pics but still don't know how to upload them to this site.

I'm not surprised at how hard it pulled. A stock 460 would not be able to pull 4x14" in this heavy black Iowa soil in 2nd gear let alone 3rd. My stock 560 does real nice in corn ground at 7 - 8" in 2nd gear and one still has to use the TA in the tough spots. In sod ground that hadn't been worked in 40 yrs. it pulled a model 540 4x14" in second gear but it was too much. Used 1st gear and no struggle at all. My 560 diesel dynos at 63HP.

Drag plows seam always to pull hard as do a fully mounted plow.Whe i first started farmen i bought a 450 D and a set of 311 3x14 fast hitch plows my buddy had a 450 D and he had a set of 540 4x14 semi mounts , now you would think that the 450 pullen the three bottoms would flat run over the one pullen the 4 bottoms NOT both of us plowen the same field the smae depth i could not go any faster . One day i hooked on to his semi mounts and they pulled easier , the 311's went down the road and i bought a set of 540's in corn stubbel it was 3rd gear and in sod it was 2 nd most of the time when i bought my 460 still had the same plow and it was 3 in corn ground and 2nd in sod. But i realy never liked the 460 .
