The two levers on a trailer plow control depth. Each wheel is adjusted separately, to level the plow side-to-side.
The idea is for the bottom of the furrow to be level with respect to the surface of the ground.
For the first pass, you will generally have the right lever higher than you would under normal plowing conditions. This is because that right wheel, the furrow wheel, is running on top of the ground and not down in the furrow. On the second furrow, you need to bring that right lever down some so the plow cuts level.
There are many other adjustments that may or may not need to be made. You may need to change the angle of the hitch for side draft, so the plow isn't pulling the tractor sideways in the furrow.
A worn plow will not plow well, no matter how much you adjust. Unfortunately with these old plows it's pretty easy to end up with a worn out plow.

It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package.
