    Turf Tires Snow

    My 9N came with turf tires and I'm WAY to cheap to buy new ones so I decided to give it a shot last winter. I don't have rear tire weights only filled tires and I use chains. I plowed my entire parking area with a 6' 3 point back blade and also I cleared a pond with bare ice all winter for...

    Need Help Troubleshooting 9N Charging System

    Guys, I got a multimeter. Battery shows about 6 volts not running. Will wait for daylight to jump it and find out what it shows when running. When I ran a wire to both terminals on the cut out the ammeter didn't show a charge in fact it went so negative that the needle buried negative...

    Need Help Troubleshooting 9N Charging System

    Hi Guys, First off I have a 1942 9N 6 volt front mount. The background on the issue is my battery is not recharging when operating the tractor. Every time I need to start it now I have to jump it (per the 50 tips). Once jumped it fires up right away, it just does not charge any more...

    How to read an Ammeter

    How to read an Ammeter

    Why is my battery flip flopped

    Sound guy, Good point. Since I was adding this to some questions yesterday I did not think to say what year etc. For your reference it's a 1942 9N 6volt front mount. I read more posts and figured out how to re-polarize from a posting from Dell a while back.. Thanks, PTG in MN

    Why is my battery flip flopped

    Interesting, As I read some past posts people were mentioning re-polarizing the generator cut out. Does that need to be done when you remove the battery and rewire, or does that need to be done only if you install a new one? I ask because I had my tractor running for a while yesterday and the...

    Why is my battery flip flopped

    Hi Guys, This continues from my wiring question yesterday. Bruce helped me out, thanks Bruce. I was redoing my wiring and noticed the negative terminal is wired back to the starter cut out/assembly and the positive terminal on the battery is hooked up to the ground? Why would this be? Is...
