[QUOTE="Henk, post: 2834570, member: 39486"] Hello, This is my first post after reading this forum for a while now. I have a Ford Ransomes EPJ2 plough behind a Fordson New Major. Before 5 years ago I hadn’t plough on yard in my live, so I was no trouble with any knowles about a plough or working with it. I restored my plough myself and made a lot of mistakes that I have found out now and improved them. The last mistake I found was that part of the frame where the front leg is mounted has bended. I have shimmed it to get in line whit the plough and now both plough element are in line and at 12" at the shares. Hoping to do some plough work next week to check it out. Question is: When I have the tractor on a flat peace and the plough in both way's horizontal the crank shaft is not vertical in line but far turned with the left crank forward to get the plough in line with the tractor. Don't know how it will be when ploughing. I assume that when the first and second run is ploughed the plough must be in line with the tractor and therefore the crank shaft will be turned way out of line. Is this correct thinking? ps: being a Dutchman makes writing and reading in English a bit hart. Kind regards Henk [/QUOTE]
