Pros of the 100 are even consistent ground speed, and setting the depth was easier with the manual lift because you could find the notch on the handle that works best and easily go deeper or shallow with the lift handle setting. Adjustment for depth on the 782 is all done in the brinly adapter because of the built in float. Cons of 100 are lifting plow, shifting, clutching/ braking.
Plow depth should be set by the plow, not the hitch. If the plow goes deeper on it's own, then it is set wrong. In both vids I posted, plow was "floating" as it should, yet maintained an even depth.
