[QUOTE="Howard150, post: 4788974, member: 30002"] Generally speaking then Ransomes boards need 1 or 2 flats of pressure on the board adjuster from being at rest. Obviously this does not apply to the original mounting, but the same value can be obtained. Some people even slip washers in. Packing is a function of push, pitch, depth and speed. Don’t forget that if you pull the board back not only does it not push the furrow as far - it also lessens the angle in relation to vertical which the board works at. Similarly the further you push a board out then the greater the angle which in turn leads to the top of the board at the back exerting more pressure on the furrow slice. Probably better without tailpieces. YL’s and RWM’s will in some soils tend to pull the work apart if too much pressure is put on the board. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
