    Farmall Super C - FH Seat Support

    I have a Super C with a Fast Hitch. The seat support for a FH has a hole in the upper front of the box. What is that hole used for? I have been told that it was a place to put a manual crank, but that appears cumbersome as the crank will stick out and in the way. Any feedback will be...

    Farmall 450 Amp Meter

    Well, I think the case is solved. You folks collectively hit the nail on the head. John Hagen and John T identified the specific issue, the load wire was on the wrong side. Now battery is on one post and the load and alternator output is on the other post. Amp Meter reads as expected. After...

    Super C touch Control

    Typical problem is the hydraulic pump o-rings are bad and the hydraulic fluid will leak into the engine crankcase. You can check the oil pan level petcocks. Don"t let the crankcase get too hith (full) else the seals will blow out. First replace the o-rings, next may need to replace the pump.
