[QUOTE="Fergie Ploughman, post: 7072770, member: 8824"] I’d go a bit wider for the wheel, maybe three or 4 inches, helps prevent it sinking in when it’s a bit boggy! Make sure you make the depth wheel adjust low enough to allow you to plough really shallow on your last runs. I think from memory mine will go down to about 4 inches below the rear point. If you put a marker disc on your depth wheel make it so you can adjust it to mark where your disc will run on your next bout, you can simply set it to 10” which saves you measuring your front furrow width. Defo set up for 10” furrows, but easier for your TEA to pull when it’s heavy going. You y need to add some ballast on your tractor as ideally you don’t want to use draft control, must run on the depth wheel (you haven’t got yet!). i couldn’t get on with epics, but start with them and get use to it, you can always swap them out when your feeling flush! That seems very expensive for the skims, is that for frogs, skims and stalks? Crack on and enjoy!! [/QUOTE]
