[QUOTE="TrickyT, post: 6036646, member: 47152"] At the last two matches with my Fergie plough, I have had issues with the soil flowing around the side of the disc and to the outside. I have tired widening the disc, but with the rear it has then been producing a stepped furrow and still the soil flowed around the outside. Today at Hereford, is some nice soil, I had originally had the disc lower than normal to cut a clean wall, I would have thought about 1/2" above the shear and 1/2" width. With it set like this, there was quite a significant amount of soil flowing around the front furrow into the rear. I then raised them to about 1 1/4" before even widening them to about 1 1/4", but it still happened. I would have thought I was ploughing about 6". I has only happened at the last 2 matches and seems to be more on the front than rear. It might also have been that these 2 matches were on slight slopes. It could also just be that I am out of practice, but any advice would be appreciated. Regards Trevor [/QUOTE]
