Northwest, Ohio | It seems I have to use twisted points on our chisel plow to bury corn residue but I hate that the odd number of shanks means the side that directs dirt outside the plow also dumps on the same area as we turn and go back the other direction. Does anyone put straight points just on the outside to keep from ridging?
We don't chisel corn much, only after plowing in tile for a couple years to remove "dimples".
Bought this chisel used, and previous owner had both outside points directed "in", but that wasn't level either. I know the spring pass makes it pretty level, just trying to do the best job. |

Eastern Iowa | We run 4" twists with 2" spikes on outsides for a smoother ride pass to pass. It works much better. |

Mid-Michigan | Yes. They make a straight point. I bought mine from an agco dealer and put it in the middle on a 4511 sunflower disc chisel. |

Southern Colorado | Is there a pattern or cheat sheet to setting up the twisted points? I have a 5700 CIh chisel (I think that's the right number) with them and have lots of ridges. I do like the idea of putting straight points on the outside shanks. |

southeast iowa | Have a 9 shank chisel use 3 inch twisted but have a straight 2" in the middle and 2" on both outside shovels works great. |

Michigan | We just talked about this the other day. Our sunflower chisel plow leaves a ridge when the outside shovel throws the dirt toward itself. I had no idea they made a straight shovel to put on that outside shank. What is the purpose of a straight tooth in the middle? |

NW Central Ohio | I buy a 4" straight shovel from Case/IH. Just got a set the other day. They're too thin..and I have to hardface the bottom of them to get them to go 120 acres before switching to the other end. They also get thin at the bolts...so I end up welding the bolts in. |

| Question is 10 inches Between points soil is thrown but is the soil in the 10 inches completely moved shattered lose the same density |
