    New idea sickle mower woes

    This message is a reply to an archived post by hvacpro85 on February 23, 2021 at 13:41:56. The original subject was New idea sickle mower woes. I have spent many hours with 2 of these mowers since the early 1960's. My father had 2 of them, we sometimes used them simultaneously when mowing hay...

    old non hydraulic wheel disc HOW TO get out of transport

    Most ag supply stores carry a manually operated lever-and-ratchet screw-style link that will take the place of a hydraulic cylinder. Basically like a screw jack with a clevis and pin on each end. If you have one of these, just pin one end in place, use the lever to ratchet the length in or...

    Oliver 50 Baler chains

    Thanks for the explanation, makes sense now! I couldn't remember where I left my old copy of Machinery's Handbook,that info might be in there. (I went to a small local school called Purdue U, spent 41 years as a mechanical engineer.) Our local Stock and Field store just re-opened under new...

    Oliver 50 Baler chains

    Ya.I am familiar with that. Ruining the needles or damaging the knotter would be a lot more work and expense. I grew up with a McCormick 50 T, the one with the little hand-crank Cub engine over the bale chamber. Sure wish I had another! That little engine would rally purr, and you could slow...

    Oliver 50 Baler chains

    I am looking for help in finding new roller chains for an old Oliver 50 twine baler that I am trying to get working again. The main problem is that it had been left out in the rain, and the roller chains are so rusty that they won't move. These are the agricultural extended pitch type. The...

    Ford NAA hydraulic lift problem

    I will try that. I bought one of those small video cameras with the lens on the end of a flexible extension, might be a good time to try it out. I did find a video on YouTube showing a large leak coming out of the sheetmetal cover over the spool valve area. (The fellow said he didn't think you...

    Ford NAA hydraulic lift problem

    Hi,. I would like a clue as the most likely cause of my 3 point lift problem. Bought an NAA a few years ago, been using it mostly for running a trailer-type rotary mower, but also some plowing and discing. Wanting to plow down a few more acres of sod soon to plant more alfalfa in the Spring...

    Ford-Dearborn 10-1 plowshare number?

    I got the numbers off the moldboards, it is 101500. There is a large sideways diamond shape with DMC inside, which I understand is the logo for Dearborn Motors Corp., and a small circle with what looks like a 3-leaf clover. I found where someone had posted a scan of an original Dearborn "wear...

    Dearborn 10-1 plow share part number?

    Hi, I recently posted to Implement Ally asking for help finding the original part number for the General Purpose share for the Dearborn 10-1 plow, made around 1948-50. Some advice has been offered, but no part number yet. Talked to Steve at Ploworx, he might have the right tooling to make a...

    Ford-Dearborn 10-1 plowshare number?

    Thanks for taking the time to help! The first thing I did after I finished plowing my sod field was to flip the plow over to look for the part numbers.Unfortunately, they were aftermarket shares, so no Ford part number. (Needless to say, my field was in horrible shape,sod didn't roll over very...

    Ford-Dearborn 10-1 plowshare number?

    Posted some days previously for help finding Ford's part number for the plowshare for the 10-1 ("Previous Model") plow,2 bottom by 14". (NOT to be confused with the later 101 plow.) One feller said to try Ploworx, as they had bought some of Crecent's tooling when they closed down. But no one...

    Dearborn 10-1 plow share part numbers

    Someone replied and told me to contact Ploworx. I talked to the owner, he was very helplful, but said that I still need the original part number. He has a backlog of orders, and he doesn't want to waste my time and money making me a new share that doesn't fit. So I am still stuck needing a...

    Dearborn 10-1 plow share part numbers

    Howdy, Anyone out there have the original part numbers for the shares on a Dearborn 10-1 plow? (AKA "Prior Model", 2 bottom x 14") Looks like there may be some sources out there for new/used shares, but they tend to list only by original part number, and not by the model number of the plow...

    NAA temperature gauge

    Ya, I have bought from some of these other vendors when appropriate, but being Scots, I just wanted something "good enough" for the job, for the least money spent. (I have 8 older tractors,'43 through '56. My dad bought me a Ford 9N with plow when I was only 9 so I could help with the Spring...
