Yeah Steve, I started plowing finally. Unfortunately it was raining lightly all weekend which made it kind of miserable. The plow was working really well though after getting everything dialed in. It was coming out really nice and even. I had to add more weight to the front to keep it down when heading uphill. Still some wet spots in the field to work around.

This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
