Yeah, I was glad to catch this thread, though I've used this set up for about 6 years, first time I used it was in heavily sod bound soils, but was plowing down hill, also some small roots, was interesting, but not too much trouble to get it going right.
You want to obviously level it up in the furrow, by adjusting the leveling box, then set your top link, try er out, if it does not pull in at full depth, adjust the top link to make the point bear down a little more, if the points are sharp and adjsuted these don't appear to be that hard to deal with ( I also seem to have a mental block for remembering the correct terms for all the mold board plow wear parts. ).
