Subject: RE: Wurdinger tile plow



Eastern Iowa
We've got one of the old ones with the 6" boot on it. Works well, but pulls hard. We usually have to pull the MFWD tractor with the CAT D7 to keep it moving. We built a carriage for it several years ago after we damage the tractor's top link pulling it through a rut. It has a large hydarulic cylinder in place of the top link, which enables us to push it quite a bit deeper.

If you'd ever seen our farm, you'd know why a laser would be unnecessary, but we added a little sight guage, similar to the ones on self-leveling loaders, to show us when we are running it parallel to the ground.

The large boot makes it tougher to pull, and we seldom use that large diameter tile anyway. If I had to do it over again, I'd get one of Don's plows for 4" tile, and save a lot of extra effort. Definitely a well built plow.
