When the picker went on you took the fenders off and when the picker came back off you put the fenders on. Pretty simple really. I guess if the tractors were used for nothing but picking corn I could see ordering them without fenders. The guys in this area however tended to use their tractors for a lot of other things the other ten months out of the year. Keep in mind there was a lot of livestock around at that time which meant manure handling. Kind of nice to have fenders for that. I really can't imagine doing much fieldwork with an 806 or 706 without some kind of fenders. Maybe its just me. [Reply]   [No Email]

Ran for 4 years without fenders on the 806 and 856 doing field work. Never new better I guess. 966 in 74 was the first tractor we bought with a wide front and fenders. Gary   [Reply]  [No Email]
