Ethridge, TN
Actually, if you really read some of the newer operating manuals for the wider ground working equipment, they are recommending that you have the drawbar in swing mode again. I can think of 3 tools we have right now where this is suggested in the manual. Krause 42' Landsman, Krause 18' Dominator, and the Great Plains 52' Ultra-till. It is supposed to help relieve side stress on the hitch of these units. The Dominator actually has a side swing cushioned hitch on it, and if you don't put the drawbar in swing with it, it will take out the rubber cushions.
