_

To

The

Owner

Your new

International

Harvester

plow

is

designed

to

meet

today's

exacting

operat-

ing

requirements.

The

ease

of

operation,

and

ability

to

adjust

to

field

conditions

lighten

your

work and

shorten

your

hours

on

the

job.

You

are

urged

to

consult

your

International

Harvester

dealer

concerning

unusual

conditions

or

special

applications.

Let the

experience of

your

dealer

and the

organization

associated

with

him serve

you.

Be

sure

to read

the

instructions

for

Ad-

justing

and

Operating

in this

manual.

Check

each

item

referred

to and

acquaint

yourself

with

the

adjustments

required

to

obtain effi-

cient

operation

and

maximum

trouble-free

service.

Remember,

a

plow

which

is

prop-

erly

lubricated

and

adjusted

saves

time,

labor,

and

fuel.

After

the

operating

season,

thoroughly

clean

your plow

and

inspect

it.

Preventive

maintenance

pays

dividends.

Your dealer

has

original-equipment

parts

which

assure

proper fit

and

best

performance. He

is able

to

recondition

your

equipment

to a

like new

condition.

Your

plow

will

be

used

intermittently

during the

year. Rust

and

corrosion

must be

prevented

the

year

around. A

small

amount

of

time

and

effort

spent

protecting

it from

destructive

moisture

will

repay

you many

times

in

long

years

of

service, easy

opera-

tion,

and

high resale

value.

Of equal

impor-

tance

at the end

of the

operating

period

are

the

care

of

unprotected

surfaces and

pro-

vision

for

suitable

waterproof

shelter.

TRACTOR

WHEEL

WEIGHT

It

is

recommended

that

the tractor rear

wheels

carry

added

weight for

increased

traction.

Adding

weight saves

wear on

the

tires

and also

serves

to stabilize

the

trac-

tor for plowing

on

rough or

hillside

fields.

For this

purpose,

liquid

such as

calcium

chloride

solution can be

placed

in

the rear

tires,

or one

or two

weight

(available

from

your

International

dealer) may

be

bolted on

each

rear wheel.

In

loose soil

it may be

necessary

to use

both

the liquid

and the

weights to

prevent

2. Draft

Control

(Not

recommended

for

on

the land

operation)

Draft

control is

that function

of

the trac-

tor

hitch

which responds

to variations

in

draft and does it

quick

enough to maintain

a

nearly constant

load

on

the

tractor.

When

the load on

the hitch

increases, the

hitch

responds

by shallowing

the front

end of the

plow,

which transfers

increased

weight to

the

tractor,

thus increasing

traction. A

choice of

two methods of

employing

"Draft

Control"

is available

as follows.

plow while operating

in the field.

As a

starting point

run the

lower link hitch

pins

about

17"

above the

ground.

(Draft

is

not

recommended.

Place outside

lever

in

an

extreme

forward

position).

The adjusting

stop may

be

set to

help

locate the

lever setting. It can then also

be

by-passed when

needed (as for quick entry

into

the

ground).

A

Caution!

Move

the Draft Control

lever forward

as

far as

possible when

the plow is discon-

nected.

The

speed

of hitch response to

changing

draft

loads can be varied

by moving the

in-

side control lever

past

the

offset,

into the

portion

of

the quadrant marked "RUN".

When the

lever is in the

extreme forward

position

load

sensing

is slow. When

the

lever is

located

just beyond the

offset

in

the

quadrant,

load sensing is fast.

See

lllust. 8B.

Any

lever

setting between

the two

extremes

may

be used depending

on field

conditions.

When lowering the

plow to start

plowing,

the

inside lever

should

not

be moved directly

to

the extreme forward

position as this

will

cause

slow entry

of

the

front

of

the plow

and

also

cause

the

rear cylinder to lower the

rear

of

the

plow too

slow.

A

CAUTION! Move the outside draft

control

lever forward

as far as possible

when

the

plow is

disconnected.

before

turning. Do not use individual

tractor

wheel braking to make short turns.

This plow

has limit stops which do

not per-

mit pivot

turns.

SCOURING

If the

plow

bottoms

do

not scour im-

mediately, it

is

because

the

soil is rather

sticky and

you will

have

to wait until the

bottoms

have

taken

a land

polish. This may

require

a few

rounds or,

in

very

sticky

soil,

a

few days. To obtain this land polish, it is

recommended

that you

run

the plow

rather

shallow

and fast. It

is

also advisable

to

set

the

colters far to

the

outside of

the

landside

and

not too

deep.

Sometimes it

is necessary

to

remove

the

colters entirely

so as

to

ob-

tain

the

maximum pressure on

the plow

bottom

which aids in

scouring.

REAR FURROW

WHEEL

The purpose of the rear furrow

wheel

is to take part of

the

thrust

of the

landside

against

the

furrow

wall and to carry the

rear end of the plow when transporting.

The

adjustments

provided are especially

important when plowing hard

or

difficult

soils. Make certain

the tire is inflated to

the

recommended 40

pounds of air pres-

sure before

making adjustments.

The

bolt

10 serves

to

locate

the

axle

in one of five

possible positions

in the axle sleeve. Use the center position

for

average

conditions.

Note:

With

the use

of larger tires this adjustment is limited

by

tire

clearance

and

care should be taken

not to allow the

tire

to rub on the linkage.

Adjusting

the wheel

closer

to the

furrow

wall

can aid

in taking

side

thrust and

help

reduce

landside

wear.

Be sure

to completely collapse the

too deep.

2. Front bottom is not

overcutting.

3.

Plow is equipped with

proper land-

sides and are not worn too badly (wide

landside on rear).

4.

If

all

the above

is checked and over-

cutting is still a

problem,

do

as

follows:

Move

the pull

beam to the right (one

position). Note:

This

will require an adjust-

ment of

crossbar

or a change in

tractor

Vertical Hitch

Adjustment

Crossbar

hitch pins should be installed in

the lower holes

for normal operation.

Front of

Locate the

hitch pins in the crossbar

in

the

upper

holes. This will

have the tendency

to raise the rear of the plow

and lower the

front of

the

plow

into the ground.

This change also tends to put more

weight

on the

rear

of

the tractor.

Rear

of

Plow

Runs Shallow

When the

rear

of the plow

runs shallow it

may be

necessary to

lower the hitch pins in

order to get depth at the

rear

of

the

plow. To

accomplish this

the

plow is

equipped with

a

reversible crossbar. The

crossbar is

re-

versed by removing it from the pivot post

plates and reinstalling it (top side down).

For an

extreme lower setting,

reinstall pins

in the

lower holes.

Note:

When making

a

change in plowing

depth it is necessary to

consider

the

rear

wheel setting

along

with

the

hitch depth

set-

ting. The rear wheel should carry appreci-

able weight; however, if it makes

a

deep

track

in

the ground and

the plowing depth

is

satisfactory, then the hitch

setting should

be raised slightly. The hitch setting

will

determine

the plowing depth while the rear

wheel serves

to

stabilize the

selected

depth

and

keep the

plow

frame

level

with the

ground.

A

lust.

19

The

Automatic

Recovery Beam is

de-

signed

to

relieve

itself by

moving directly

back

and

up when

the bottom

encounters

an

obstruction

in

the ground.

The

bottom then

re-enters the

ground

at the

proper plowing

angle

without

a

reduction

in

forward

speed.

A

vertical

relief feature

is incorporated

which

allows the

share

point to

glide up and

over

sloping

obstructions.

The

ability

of the

plow bottoms

to

main-

tain

the

proper

plowing

depth

is

dependent

upon

the

suction

of the

bottom.

In

fields

where

penetration

is

a

problem

the

suction

of the

bottom

must

be

increased

by replacing

worn

shares

or

by using

shares with

better

penetrating

qualities

such as

deep

suck or

upset

shares.

Under

some

soil

conditions

it

is

advantageous

to

use the

adjustable

pitch

feature

on

the

plow

bottom.

(See

The reversible

block

(See

the

factory

with the

thin

side engaged. For

areas

having

surface

rock, reverse

the

block

so

the thick

reducing tripping

protection for the plow.

NEVER OPERATE

DITION WITH

THE ADJUSTING BLOCK

REMOVED.

Note:

Use

caution

plowing in

fields

with

large

rocks

which

protrude

6

inches or

more above the

surface.

A A

Caution!

Automatic

Recovery

Beams operate

very rapidly and

are

potentially

dangerous to

be near at all times

while

plowing.

Caution! The

spring tubes arc

and

whip at a

making

it dangerous to

ride

anywhere

on

the plow frame.

A

Caution! Should

dirt or trash

cause a unit to

"hang up",

stay

clear of the

area

near the

unit.

To remove

the obstruction,

use a long

pole

or

hook.

SPRING

TRIP

BEAM

The beam trips are set

at the factory to

break

at a load of

3,

100 pounds.

Slacking

off the

lock nuts

"AB" will decrease

the

trip-

ping load.

By tightening the lock

nuts two

revolutions

the

tripping

action is increased

to maximum.

See lllust. 20.

Increasing the tripping load

will reduce

the

frequency

of tripping in hard

ground,

alfalfa, etc.

,

but will

at the same time in-

crease

the possibility

of

bottom

damage.

Pivot Bolt

Note:

The 1-inch slotted nut which secures

the pivot

bolt "AF"

(lllust.

be kept

tight at all times. If this

is

not done, the

bottom will be loose and tend to

enough to eliminate all shake

but at the

same

time

see

that the bottom can be

rotated

by

hand on the beam pivot bolt.

This precaution

serves

to

prevent unnecessary

tripping in

hard ground due to a "walking

action"

of

the

trip mechanism. After plowing the first one

or two acres,

it

will be necessary to tighten

the pivot bolt nut

due to the "wear in" of the

LUBRICATION

Always

lubricate

the plow

thoroughly

be-

fore

taking it

to the

field.

Use a

pressure

lubricating

gun.

Use

IH

251H

EP

grease

or

equivalent #2

multi-purpose

lithium

grease

for

lubrication

fittings

on

which

the

pressure

lubricating

gun

is used.

Always

force the

lubricant

through

the full

length

of each

bearing until

it

emerges

at the

end,

carrying

with it

the worn

lubricant

and

any

dirt that

may

have

entered

the

bearing.

Miscellaneous

working

parts

not

provided

with

lubrication

fittings

should

be

oiled daily

with a

good

grade of

lubricating oil.

Be

sure

all

fittings

are

free

from dirt

and

paint

so

the

lubricant is

certain to

enter

the

bearing.

Lubricant

is

cheap. Use

plenty

of it.

Worn

parts

can be

expensive to

replace.
