Iam in the process of trading my 8n ford international 400 .he looked at my 8n and liked it iam going to look at his 400 . my ? Is he said ta needs adjusted his description is tractor will not come out of gear unless rolling or you stop tractor and shift ta into low and then tractor will come out of gear. He said he had ta adjusted about 7 years ago. This tractor has loader and Swartz wide front end ,power steering . should I jump on it with this problem.he said it has power down pressure on 3 point and you turn a nut on lever for float.tin looks good
 
If the shifting out of gear is an issue as stated, it is just an adjustment that is needed.
The process (as I do it): Set the clutch free play at 1 inch down from all the way up measured at the foot plate to cast contact in the pedal arm. this can be felt by hand. In an open area with nothing to run into, use low gear, and measure the point that letting up on the pedal causes the tractor to begin to move. this is the engagement point of the master clutch. The TA linkage is now adjusted so it begins to be released at this position of the foot pedal. further depressing the pedal releases the TA clutch fully. (usually another 3/4" or so to an inch of foot travel. This assures that the TA clutch is fully engaged when the master clutch applies power through it. It also assures that the full pedal depression releases the TA clutch so shifting is not bound up. The lever should apply and fully release the TA clutch very near the center of its travel. Doing this compensates for linkage wear and I have had no issues doing it this way. Jim
 
Like I said before, don't wait any longer. I've wanted a 400 or 450 for ages. If swap my 300 off in a heartbeat, even with the increased fuel consumption. Which, by the way, is about 2.5 times that of the 8n.
