    Farmall Super A UMF / bean pulling issue

    Hello, I set up my Farmall Super A last year to pull beans using bean knives/pullers but am running into an issue with the entire UMF lifting up on the right side when running in the soil. It seems that the resistance of the puller knives is enough to lift up the entire UMF. I didn't experience...

    replacement share for Ferguson 14-AO plow

    I broke a share on my two bottom Ferguson plow, and have followed several leads found on this forum to purchase either new old stock or a blacksmithed new share. The number on the moldboard is 14 AO 112. The share itself is stamped with the number 100984. I posted a photo in the implement...

    replacement share for Ferguson 14-AO plow

    Hi Leroy, Sorry I just saw your response somehow -- would be interested to hear how you modified throwaway shares to fit, I have been thinking along those lines as I don't think I have an alternative to get the plow working this spring.

    replacement share for Ferguson 14-AO plow

    just posted a photo of the broken share (cant see it but a plate was welded on the back. link below). Does anyone have experience modifying the base of this type of plow to accept a modern share? Someone mentioned doing this with a John Deere share on another thread, but didn't mention...

    bean pullers on a Super A

    I am growing a couple acres of dry beans, and am considering buying a Super A available locally (with a set of cultivators) with the intent to rig up some edible bean pullers (bean knives) to mount to the cultivator toolbar. I currently have a pair of Maurer pullers (seem to be pretty uncommon...

    bean pullers on a Super A

    Hi Jim, thanks for this comment. I was inspired to dig a bit deeper on the hp per row question and came across the document linked below. It claims only 3 hp needed per row to pull beans. Interesting! I agree a C would still be the machine to shoot for long term. I may pick up the Super A to...

    bean pullers on a Super A

    Thanks Jim and others for this info, very helpful. I think I will hold off on the Super A in favor of a C or H. For the question about what bean pullers do, linking a video below for your reference. much bigger scale and modern equipment, but these are still knife-style pullers (vs rod...

    bean pullers on a Super A

    I would be looking to cultivate and pull two rows at 24-30 spacing, so I think the Super A wheel spacing would be fine -- I used to cultivate 3 16 rows of veggies with a modified toolbar on a Farmall 100 and that worked well. The power question is a good one. My sense is these knives don't...

    replacement share for Ferguson 14-AO plow

    Thanks, yes I had found Steve's contact info on this forum and have been on his list since August, but as its looking possible I won't have the new share in time, am looking for alternatives or a worn share to temporarily use.
