In the absence of any other replies, I will offer my very limited knowledge,
First give the Anzani a dose of calpol to quieten it down.
The trailer plough should run roughly horizontal across the plough frame and lengthwise.
The rear little wheel only carries the plough when the plough is raised , depth is determined by the land and furrow wheels and the pitch of the shear point the plough body, probably similar to the walk behinds.
The plough drawbar should be adjusted to be horizontal when in work, ie a straight pull without exerting lift or pressure on the plough. The sideways adjustment is a mystery to me !
The tractor drawbar setting seems controversial, some run a fixed position , some let it swing and some restrict the swing.
The rest is practice practice practice.
No doubt this will raise comments from others, who will have other ideas, fair enough!
