    Any literature of this sort is always worth keeping especially if you have the machine to go with it
     
    I've seen manuals for these on the bay go for reasonable money...

    Manual may not be worth anything much, but worth keeping. As is the sales leaflet. Those front indicator lens look the same as Land Rover and real Mini ones. Pity your not up this way. I've several.

    Hi If you are lucky and look on the bottom of the towing hitch you may find a plate with the date on it

    Just bought another tractor. Allen Oxford Motostandard with finger bar mower and including a gen owners and parts manual.
    Everything works great and the only missing thing is one front indicator lens is missing .
    Now need some long grass to mow .

    Hi all
    This is my new attempt at making my plough work
    The problem with my Gutbrod plough is the mouldboard is not long enough for competition match ploughing although I have great success with it .Think it is time for a change the photos are of a mock up of how I would like the plough to look. I will have nine inches more beam giving me space for a disc and a skimmer, the mould board is 12 inches longer and should make a nicer furrow only time will tell once I am happy with settings it will all be welded up

    Yours is a Wheel Horse original for the slotted Wheel Horse hitch, hard o say whether it was made by Brinly, Ohio Steel, or Wheel Hose themselves. The other plow is a sleeve hitch plow and most other garden tractors used this type of implement, because like a 3 point lift patented by ford, the attachments would fit all tractors. The other excepts are Gravely and Sears/David Bradley. Gravely implements were most often brand specific and would not fit other machines. Most of the Sears/DB stuff was a modified narrower Cat 0 three point lift, but instead of being 19-20 inches between lift bars the Sears/DB hitches were 12". They also featured a different style top or center link. Often people will attempt to use Sears/DB stuff on Cat 0 lifts and it doesn't work unless you modify it with proper re fabrication.

    should be as close to the plow as possible, to far forward as it sits now

    I hope that is enough, you might need less than 6" and don't forget to set the suck (tilt or toe in) and list, on flat ground the plough should lean slightly, you can recreate the lean by make the plough level when the left two tires on are 4" blocks. This simulates two right wheels in a furrow and correct the lean of the tractor to the plough. Brinly has a manual detailing this, but path Norman gave will probably be the easiest to understand.

    Have a look in Ride On's, page 21, My topic titled Plough. July 21 2015. Some very useful info in there from the George, The Fife Plooman, on setting up your plough.

    You need to be able to move the plow off center to the right to lessen the furrow width. The position a plough needs to be will be different on tractors with different wheel base widths

    Well I finally got the chance for a small go with the new plough I picked up earlier this year. 
    Need to have more room to set it up with the rear linkage . I think the furrow width is a bit too wide,
