ransome plough model help

[windymiller]

This is ours, got the mechanical trip on it which is ok, wouldn't mind converting it to hydraulic reset though, does a tidy enough job, deep or shallow. We made a depth wheel for it but had a puncture in it and never got it fixed, used it with out now for years.

Look closer, the tractor trye appears to be marking the previous run making the furrows look 3 and 3, there is a lot worse jobs around but its tripled ( would be paired with a 2 furrow !

Yes, joys of modern bigger tractors with wider tyres.

There's a 3 furrow one of these with the hydraulic reset half buried in a hedge near me the owner says it has barpoints,
would there be any difference between the mouldboards on these and the non barpoint version?

Mouldboards are the same, frogs, shares and landslides are different. I've got a parts list if you need any information, just haven't found the plough to go with it and the sales leaflet yet.

Brilliant thanks i hope to get it pulled out
this week to see if its worth saving.
Ive got a genuine ransome ucn lying in the back of the shed that should fit nicely

Hi would you have the parts list for UCN barpoint bodies? Thanks

Thank you

No problem. Anything else just ask.

Hi all I'm fixing one of these up, so far I got everything freed out and moving.
I've noticed that the front furrow is tilted back at an angle when compared the other two furrows is something bent or can the pitch of the frog be adjusted?

 

[Lincsman]

leg is bent or something wrong at the top hidden from view.

 

[Ts 59]

Top bolt on the frog has an eccentric collar on it to adjust pitch on body. That said It looks a long way out, have seen leg on tsf 200 bent at hole for shearbolt before. Edit looking at parts list above maybe bottom bolt is eccentric not top?

 

[Exfarmer]

You will probably find it bent in two planes. They must be pressed cold But if it is bent down it is near impossible to get them back

 

[SuperTwo]

Thanks all I will try to adjust the frog pitch first and then determine how badly bent it is

 

[Bury the Trash]

Looks like the front of the frog is bent as well
