The whole point of the gauge was to know were to position the Traction Booster lever on the D-Series (the lift/lower lever on the the WD/WD-45 & CA"s). If you look in any of the plow manuals it tells you to position the traction booster lever (or lift/lower lever if it is a WD) so that the needle on the traction booster gauge is near the center of the gauge. If you set the lever too high then, yes, it will raise the plow out of the ground. If you set it too low, then the tractor would spin-out before the traction booster would operate. 3 pt. hitches work on the same priciple. Thats what the "Draft Control" lever on most 3 pt. tractors is used for. Anyone who has operated an Allis with a Snap Coupler plow and a properly set-up traction booster system will tell you it works great. If Ed has had problems with on he either didn"t have it set correctly or he couldn"t read the operator"s manuals.
