Nebraska Panhandle
I've got one just like the one your looking at and have had good luck with mine. It's not the heaviest disk around but does a nice job in wheat stubble. I have also used it for light disking before planting spring crops. Mine does not ridge which is a big plus. You want to watch the turnbuckles that control the depth of the outside wings. They like to bind and break, and are expensive. If you have not used it for a while-- before you fold it put some oil on the balls of the turnbuckle so they don't get in a bind and you will be alright. Also check the frame for any cracks. I've seen some cracked where the hitch connects to the disk. The scrapers are alright, but not the best. They like to pack tight with straw and tumbleweeds. Over all a pretty good disk. I pull mine with a 9282 New Holland. It's a nice load for it.
