[QUOTE="Howard150, post: 6093932, member: 30002"] Eyup Kevin. Easiest way of explaining it - easiest way of doing it. Salient points! 1. The finish starts when you start casting to your neighbour. Measure this bit correctly and you will save time when doing the last few runs. 2 Take care with the number of your empty runs. Free in England but limited in Scotland. Running round empty at the start wastes 1. 3. Oddments are arbitrary and depend on what you leave. Always put them under the wheel - twofold benefit - hides them and helps fill the wheeling and keep the wheeling up. 4. Progressively lower discs and skimmers for the last few runs. 5. Make sure the depth wheel is adjustable side for side and use it as a guide. 6. Always remember to push the back board out 4 or 5 flats for the last 2 runs. 7. Lifting the front leg an inch will help your finish. Any more is too much. 8. For the second to last run always take the weight off the landside. Adjust the plough narrow on the cross shaft and wind the plough wide on the furrow width adjuster. Hope this helps. [ATTACH=full]778462[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
