need help identifying a tractor

[47farmallM]

so I have switched from the red tractors to pretty comfortable tan and red tractors on the farm.. I bought this tractor yesterday for 950 at a auction, its a gas, and I am guessing a case-o-matic which I don't much about.. it was low on trans fluid so we put some in but it still doesn't wanna go in gear easy. seems to almost have no clutch petal at all

 

[tractorguy2]

I know it's not a 400B or 300B. I'm guessing it's in the 30 series

 

[Joe Young]

You have an early (1960-1963) 541C, which is a 530 spark ignition, row crop with the case-o-matic.

You will need to ensure the com spool valve is adjusted properly so it is releasing oil pressure when the clutch is depressed.

 

[47farmallM]

can you please explain how to do that joe.

 

[jon f mn]

The com won't have a clutch feel, it will
either be in or out like a hydraulic valve
which it is. In the lower gears it will
creep like a car in higher gears it won't
move without some throttle. Think of it as a
car auto trany with manual shift and manual
lockup. Always let the clutch out at idle
while holding the brake, then release the
brake and give it has to move. Real handy
once you get the hang of it.

I think 300 or400 becaus of the three point. I don't think they maid 500 or 600 with that piovet
arms.

It is a 541C as Joe said. It has the factory installed 3pt conversion on it with some missing parts. The lower rear side hood panals are missing along with one radiator side panal. The RH rear side panal would have had the sn# on it.

There is a 530 right side panel on EBAY for 45.00. Don't know shipping, was looking for a front axle or leveling link.

when ordering a carb kit and other parts for this tractor, do I need to go off of a case 530 or the 541c?

 

[BarryfromIA]

It is a 530 like JOE and ACG said, we had one that was at 40+ horse power.

It gets confusing, 541 is just the gas version of the 530 but it is still a 530 for all practical purposes.

It can have a Zenith or Marvel-Schebler carb. Can't tell from the pic which you have for sure but looks like a M-S. Order kit for the model of the carb. If it is a M-S carb the tag will be on the blind side of the choke shaft facing the engine. If you clean it off might be able to get the nr with a mirror. Pic is an example of a model TSX 635 M-S carb. 2-56 is the date of manufacture.

Click on the link, enter 530 in the model search box. Your tractor is here:
(530) - CASE AG & UTILITY TRACTOR (PRIOR TO S/N 8262800) (1/60-12/64)

...As Joe (Wa) said, the early 530s like your could have had either a Marvel Schebler or Zenith carburetor.

If your still has the original carburetor the model number will be:

Zenith: 12509

Marvel Scheduler: TSX -799

The later 530s were produced with a Zenith 13106. That is a good number if you need to replace your existing carburetor
