A cable plow system, comprising a cable plow for introducing at least one line into the ground and a chassis, wherein:
- the cable plow comprises at least one laying unit, wherein the at least one laying unit has an attachment suitable for engaging the ground to form a trench in a soil and a line routing for laying the at least one line into the trench formed or formable by the attachment;
- the chassis comprises a cab configured to accommodate a driver and front wheels and rear wheels, wherein the front wheels and/or the rear wheels are respectively attached to the cab by means of respective supports,
- wherein
- the cable plow system has a coupling device, wherein the coupling device is or comprises at least one eye-bolt connection, the chassis and the cable plow being interchangeably connectable or connected to one another by means of the coupling device,
- each of the respective supports has a height adjustment device for adjusting an angle of inclination of the respective supports in relation to a ground surface, and
- the cab can be raised by means of the height adjustment devices of the respective supports relative to the ground surface by a height that is greater than a height of the cable plow, so that the cab is movable to connect the cable plow and chassis via the cable plow.
