I'm not sure why this was in my recommendations 6 and 1/2 years later but I enjoyed it. It's good to finally see someone on TH-cam that has their plows set up correctly (except for the rear coulter, which I understand from another comment has been corrected). Most of the other videos have them set up incorrectly, or they are plowing too deeply or too shallow, or at the wrong ground speed, or wrong gear, etc. I know it seems like a small thing to most people, but I was born on, raised on, and still work the farm (and still have our 8n) and it just bugs me.
How deep is the plow suppose to go. I just got one and couldnt see my plow. I may be going to deep then. It was the the first time the soil was plowed.

Stop and clean off the plow. It will do a better job and use less fuel. Also a bit of front weight will stabilize the steering.
Lovely bit of kit great video 👍🇬🇧
Sorry ,no negative comments , everyone is a critic, old tractor doing a good job.
Turn that ground!!!!!!!!
Next time he may want to strike the first plow down the center of the field first, then throw the furrows toward the middle, not the outside.
Methinks using the clutch pedal for a foot rest is a very bad idea.
By plowing from the outside toward the middle you don’t have a ditch going around your field

Deep enough to roll the furrow over nicely. Can't see the plow = too deep
Fenmancan Thanks. I well try it again this week.
Nice. You do need to clean your rear coulter however.
After plugging it 2 - 3 times, we noticed that it was put on wrong. We adjusted it and plowed the rest of the field without it plugging again.
Don't ride the clutch! !
