Sounds like tread width is too narrow. I'm drawing a blank about how wide it's SUPPOSED to be for a 3X16" plow. Plow Manual should say, or maybe someone will jump in with that info. I'm thinking it's 29" from center of tractor to inside of sidewall, but that may be wrong.
Draft arms should trail "centered". Top link should be in line with centerline of tractor. The offset drawbar can be rotated to make plow follow correctly. Standing at the furrow side, rotate the drawbar clockwise to make the plow trail further to the left, and counter-clockwise to make it trail to the right. Most plow manuals refer to that as adjusting "width of cut". (Sounds like you MAY need "clockwise". If the plow is trailing centered, DON'T change this adjustment) Some plows come with a landing lever that will rotate the drawbar to regulate the WIDTH OF CUT of the front bottom. That adjustment should be used to make the plow run centered on the tractor's DRAFT LINE and NOT to force it to one side or the other. Once the plow is trailing correctly, the tread width should be adjusted to correct position relative to the front bottom.
