Jim: None of these first tractors with cabs, even the Farmalls where you sat almost completely above the engine were great when something went wrong. Those first cabs were all add ons and heat rises. I remember once the A/C quit on my 1066, hot July day and the tractor was demonstrating a Rockland Rotoveyor. Rockland rep said 200 hp min, thus the 1066 was warmed up a bit. Dust is a major factor on one of those, thus you don't open cab more than necessary. My operator wanted to impress upon me the importance of getting the A/C repaired, thus had a thermometer with him in the cab. When it hit 135 degrees F, he beckoned for my attention. The A/C got fixed the next day as these lads were running 24 hours per day. I once remember a neighbor running a 484 open station. It was so hot he tried shorts. that transmission gave him a lot of leg burns.
