Overum/kongskilde/NH front furrow

[jh.]

Anyone know if there is a kit available to make the front hyd furrow narrower on these ploughs?.

I had the old tractor at 74" with 710s . New to me tractor is close to 80" with 650s . Due to the out side wall being further out with new tractor , the front furrow is just a touch wide leading to sometimes a low front and high second furr . There is close to 80mm left on the headstock slide. Have wondered about just spacing ram bracket out but thought I'd see if anyone has come across this before ?

I could flip rims and get it to around 70" but then the arms will probably catch tyres on hill sides.

Cheers

Not familiar with the Overrun, but is there not a turnbuckle, or toplink kind of adjustment on the side to make the plough pull straight, for the sake of 2 or 3 inches, try adjusting to push the plough towards the ploughed ground.

Isn't there a short turnbuckle link to the side of the frame just to the left of that picture that alters the angle and therefore the tracking of the plough?

Snap! We must be right then.

Once had one spacers to push ram away from casting if that makes sense

Thanks but already running true line slightly towards ploughed ground to try and help .

Yes some spacers at the bracket mounting would bring it over . I had just wondered if there was an overum plate available or just get some longer bolts and stick some heavy 6mm thick washers in

Just swap the wheels side to side to get the track width more suitable

I'll measure between the sidewalls of my ploughing tractor tomorrow. It is on 620/75R42 and with a track as wide as is sensible on local roads.

My tractor's rear tyres measure 56" between the inner sidewalls for an 81" track width centre to centre. No issue with ploughing. The front are set so that there are 60" between inner sidewalls. Total width of tractor is about 8ft 11inches

Stuck 5x6mm spacers in with longer bolts . Could add more but will see how it goes .
