HOW DOES A 189 TWO WAY PLOW WORK ?

I am thinking that one side works at a time. Is there a video of a two way plow at work. When I was taught by my Father
we used a single plow and would turn and come back with the tires in the rut left from first run of the plow then round and round which will take a lot of time running to the next run with the plow .

THANKS JOHNNY J :)
 
One plow, at a rtime. At the end of the furrow, turn around, and drop the reverse plow, and the furrows are turned, in the same direction. The plow not in use, latches in the up position, the other i released. Don't have a video. Ed
 
That saves alot of time plowing that way instead of driving to the other end to go back .

Pierre will have to do some fancy plowing to get around those round bales. :big smile:

Boy, I have to say that Pierre's tractor and plow are certainly turning over a nice furrow there. Mine doesn't turn nearly that well yet. Also, that is a heck of a long field!! Good thing that he can plow in both directions!!

It'd be kinda neat to see what would happen if you dropped BOTH plows... If the Cub could pull it, you should end up with two dead furrows side-by-side with a narrow strip of unplowed ground in between.

You use different wording than what we would around here. You would wind up with two back furrows with a strip of unplowed ground between. Only when the final pass is made and the two furrows touch would it be referred to as a dead furrow. Of course if you looked at some of the "dead" furrows I used to make well...... Vern

I can say truthfully that around here, that won't work. I accidently dropped the both and it took a second to figure out why I stalled. I picked up a left beam and bottom last fall and mth74 was kind enough to send pics and measurements for the crossshaft and latch levers I was missing. Had a great time building them and having everything w ork the first time out. Now its providing extra weight for the 54 blade and waiting for spring so I can finish tweaking it. John
 
Mike,

What makes a Super Cub? I am familiar with the Super C, H, and M but I haven't heard the term used with the Cub. Thanks. That French Cub sure moved the one bottom with gusto through that sod.

Super Cubs were never made in the US. It is a Cub that was made and sold in France.
 
Barnyard,

I was most interested in the difference between the Cub and Super Cub. I suppose it has a higher hp rating, perhaps sporting bigger bore, piston, and head modifications.
 
The RPMs were upped to 2,000, foot accelerator, reinforced on the back axle housing, extra oil slinger in the engine. Of course all of the French built Cubs had French made compnents, ie. generator, lights, electrical, Solex carb, Paris-Rhone starter etc.....
All of the French Cubs and Super Cubs produced more HP because the Solex carb was bigger than the IH carb.
