Help identifying older discer - with red paint

   / Help identifying older discer - with red paint #11  
I've also got one and was using it yesterday. You pull the rope and drive forward to set the front angle and then pull the other rope and back up to set the angle of the rear discs.

How much weight are you supposed to put on these things. Mine was cutting well in the centre but at the outer edges it would not even disc through the tire tracks.

How fast should I be pulling this through the fields.

Thanks

Mike

You need quite a bit weight. I have an old Towner 6.5 ft offset disc that I load with nearly 500 lb of concrete weights. And I pull it fast--5-6 mph with my Mahindra 5525--to get it to work decently.
