[MBZ] New Purchase - Ford 9N (OT)

2007-05-07 Thread Dave Wakin
Not a Mercedes, and not even diesel, but I picked up an old Ford 9N tractor this weekend that needs work. Needs new wiring, points, coil, wires, and the tranny is stuck in gear. Also needs paint, but that is after I get 'er running. I think everything is fixable with a little work. Anyone out

that never worked on any of ours. The brake engages long before the clutch disengages. I can manipulate the brake and accelerator pedals one footed on SF-grade hills. But never could get brake and clutch on the FOrd at the same time. At 02:13 PM 5/7/2007, you wrote: Clutch is on left as w

Clutch is on left as well as the brake. Placing you foot over both will engage both as far as I can tell. But you had to know that you were going for both before you started. Not a good design, L/R brakes on the same side is best. Or a hand clutch like our Moline UTS. -- Jim

Some of them have a hand lever added to the left brake pedal, so you could try to brake and clutch at the same time. On ours, the hand brake took so much effort to get any braking, that you couldn't keep on the right brake the clutch and the left brake at the same time and have any effective s

thing, they'd stop, and they'd literally spin in a dime. FOrd would never spin on a dime. The square dancing tractors use IH model Cs, cause they are smaller, lighter and easier to load and unload, and still spin on a dime, enabling the tractors to square dance. Our Farmall 200, tricycle gear,

Yep, the 200 is an updated C with live hydraulic. both the Super C and 200, and everything newer, had live hydraulic. Handy little tractors. At 12:03 AM 5/8/2007, you wrote: > thing, they'd stop, and they'd literally spin in a dime. FOrd would > never spin on a dime. The square dancing trac
