[QUOTE="The Agrarian, post: 5056528, member: 3656"] Hi folks. Mind if i ask a commercial ploughing question? All advice welcome. Sporadic problems on this farm keeping the boards on the plough running clean. Sometimes it's just one side. We wonder is it going from heavier land to light land, as it doesn't happen so much on the return journey. Most commonly happenson the front board, but could be on any. The plough is overum dx5 with full disks and skims and xl boards are nearly new. Plough set as best I can. Pulling straight, toplink dead in line behind tractor. Same depth front and back. Correct width of front furrow. Plough perpendicular to land. Today I was ploughing stubble at 14". 6-7" deep. 7kph was optimum speed for getting front furrow to drop in the right place. Was running clean. Changed to 16" Midway, and started to get a dirty front board. Perhaps just chance.... [/QUOTE]
