Dad's New Toy

Well Dad finally decided he was going to get a lil tractor, to work on the garden and push some snow around.

He even got to get out an use it today.

She's not perfect, got to take care of some neglect, but the tires are decent, lots of tread, just a few cracks.

At some point someone tried to run a rear hydraulics by drilling a hole in the lift cover, and porting the pressure, have a bolt in that hole now, but at some point I will have to get him a replacement lift cover.

It has the Sherman Transmission on it, I am not sure whether its a Step Up or Step Down yet, it has a low neutral and high position, but it doesn't seem to move out in the neutral, so pretty sure its just either Step up or Step down, not both.

PTO turns, haven't hooked anything up to it yet, but turns well, and the 3pt has no trouble with the blade.

It smokes a little, but I think that may be due to the Carb needing cleaned and adjusted properly.

Has a few drips here and there, but overall its a very nice tractor, and starts right up with no fuss.
 
Nice old 2n even with the 8n colors. Good luck with
the new tractor.
Here is a photo of a step up or step down lever.
When you pull the handle back towards the driver if
it goes faster-step up, slower step down.
If you handle does not look like this but more like
a J than it will be a combo or a creeper.
When in doubt post some photos.

Pulling back on the lever makes it go faster. The handle does have a neutral position, and it looks just like that one except red.

Mom likes the colors, so when we paint it will probably stick with those, even though it's not correct.

Question though, would a step down be slow enough for him to run a small tiller?

And I'm assuming you don't run the pro in the step up position?
 

Whatever the auxiliary does to the transmission, it'll do to the PTO on that tractor. So, no, that's not a tiller tractor.
