The owner tries different gears (settling on low and high range, first and second gear), adjusts plow depth from three to four, and plows both previously-disced ground and ground untouched for seven-plus years, noting where the tractor labors. Useful for buyers wanting real load and gearing feedback on this tractor's plowing limits.
Posted by the RSM Stuff channel, an owner testing implements on their own property rather than a dealer or reviewer.
Yes, the owner says for a little 25 horse tractor it does not do too bad, though the 2x18 plow may be a bit big for it and required raising depth and gearing down at times.
The owner used fourth gear low range at first, then switched to second gear high range, and finally had to drop to first gear high range on tougher, untouched ground.
On disced ground it cut about six and a half to seven inches deep at depth setting three, and on ground untouched for years it cut around six to six and a half inches.
