Well, the plow can be tilted as much as you want, but that is probably
not needed or realistic.
When it comes to up and down movement, the plow can be lowered to the
ground, but no further. It can be raised just a stud or so above the
ground. So it can't really be moved too much. But I'm sure the
mechanism can be redesigned pretty easily for more freedom of movement.
I originally tried to connect the plow to the outside of the centre of
the tracks, as that seems to be a bit more realistic. Large bulldozers
seem to have this construction, it seems. But I soon realized that this
was attempt was futile, and it made the vehicle too wide.
