Double furrow plow with support wheel 4FARMER

Types of plowing and plows for plowing

For the proper growth of plants and crops as well as effective harvesting, one of the most important treatments is plowing the land . Plowing is done after harvesting before winter (more effective), but also in spring before sowing or planting. The basic function of the plowing procedure is to loosen the soil , destroy weeds or mix the soil, and various types of plows are used for this purpose. Regardless of the type of plow used, there are three main types of plowing, i.e. basic, supplementary and special plowing, in which there are various subtypes, such as:

• stubble plowing,
• pre-winter plowing,
• sowing plowing,
• cover plowing,
• spring plowing,

for the most conventional method of tilling the soil, the plow is the basic device. Basic plows for plowing the land are divided into plows due to the construction:

• share plow ,
• disc plow,

by the way the land is plowed:

• bed plow ,
• plow without beds (rotary),

and due to the method of connection to the tractor:

• mounted plow (3-point linkage) ,
• semi-mounted plow (3-point linkage + road wheel(s),
• trailed plow (drawn on its own wheels).

The 4FARMER U-166 two-furrow plow is a plow that consists of a share, leg and mouldboard as well as a support wheel and it is a plow that is attached to the tractor with a Cat I 3-point hitch. The blue 4FARMER plow is a plow with side adjustment, which allows for horizontal shift of the plow relative to the tractor axis, longitudinal adjustment and adjustable support wheel height.

The 4FARMER two-furrow plow can be adjusted in two planes, vertical and horizontal (transverse and longitudinal). The first one is responsible for the lateral shift in relation to the tractor axis, and the second longitudinal adjustment for changing the angle of the plow frame to the ground, which changes the pressure of the skid on the furrow, which is directly responsible for a slight decrease or increase in the plowing width.

A detailed description and adjustment of the 4FARMER U-166 plow is presented in the instruction manual attached to the plow, together with the warranty card and spare parts catalogue.
