Ransomes 300 series set up

[Roy Stokes]

I'm about to enter the field with my Christmas present to myself, a Ransomes 300 S 4 furrow reversible plough, having spent the day freeing off everything needed to adjust it properly I could now do with a measurement from a budding classic reversible ploughman who still has the transfer fixed to his/her plough.

To set up the alignment you take a measurement from between the rear wheels of the tractor and then align the pointer on the alignment adjuster with the correct measurement on the decal, all well and good if the decal is in place.
I know all this can be done with trial and error but am looking to save myself some fannying around.

Measurement between the wheels is 125 centimetres or 49.25 inches, I just need a measurement from a given point on the plough to where the pointer needs to be on the plough frame or alternatively a photo of the decal fitted to the plough,
Thanks in anticipation

Will look in am but don't think decal will be still attached

Thanks Trebor, a measurement from between the rear wheels of your tractor and one of where your pointer is could be a good start

As promised @Vincent
Bloody photo's are upside down although I have edited them the right way round they insist on coming up on here reverted to Australian settings ..................................................................

It is seriously worrying that a prominent ploughman cant get his phone the right way round

Phone is seriously out of date and has no memory left despite deleting almost everything off it so was using an Ipad which I'm not familiar with ................................................................................. so I turned them round on the pooter but it wouldn't have it on here although I have saved them and they come up the right way in picture editor
