Super M operator platform

DanMD · Jul 8, 2018

Does anyone else find the foot platform uncomfortable? The platform curves in where my feet want to naturally sit and I find myself having to work at keeping them on deck. On my Super C, they brought the platform straight back and it works well enough for me. I am curious if anyone has pictures of a modified platform or if one was made aftermarket.

an M is uncomfortable?? You should drive an F series.

That's why the 400 is a little wider all the way back .

I find the shape of the pedals a little more comfortable on my Super H than the pedals on the M, but
plenty of room on the platform on both. M platform is larger than the SH.

Spent a couple big days loading brush with the M and Stan-Hoist loader a year or two ago, M fit me like a
well broke-in pair of work boots. It's got a battery box seat base off a Super M taking up a little bit
of room that most straight M's would have available.

that is one of the problems with my SMTA. You are sandwiched between torque amplifier lever on one side and PTO lever on the other. Also rather large battery box under the seat, a little harder to get on and off than the M.

Boy I agree Jim,

We have a WC at Farmamerica and I drove it recently (first time for me on a WC) during an event where we were pulling trams for the public to ride. Hand brake levers, too low of a seat, awkward clutch pedal, shift lever is a guess as to where it's going, and so on! But the engine runs nice!

I won 20.00 by pulling a 300bu grain cart in a soft field with the one I used to own. I hitched, Backed up 7 inches, put it in 2 with it wide open. I made sure I moved a bit sideways to avoid the wheel tracks I was creating. As I cleared a length, it locked up with the ground and I pulled it a half mile out of the field. But cumfey, no. Jim

he old man that I bought my Graham from, had his name for it. He called it a "tractor killer". I had to take 4 shanks off of it to pull it with my SMTA.

Probably a 13 ft Graham Hoeme? WD9 or JD R would usually pull a 16 ft GH.
