It's called "line of draft". Plows of that era had set-up instructions telling you where to position the plows pull hitch for 4 bottoms or (if added) 5 bottoms. I'd say your hitch needs to be moved to the right maybe 6 to 8 inches and definitely the wheel tread on the tractor needs to be narrowed up the same 6 to 8 inches. Your plows owners manual should have all this information.
