A boxblade works by it's weight alone. The 3pt has no downward pressure. The blade is designed to scrape a very small amount of dirt from the surface and hold it in place to be delivered or released where you desire. It does take practice. I do lengthen my top link to work the soil because it changes the angle of the blade to dig a little deeper. but this works only to a point. Think of a knife blade whittling on a piece of wood. The blade straight up and down only scrapes and smooths the surface. Angle the blade and it will cut into the wood.
