I'm looking at buying a 48 WC. I'm curious what is the weight of the tractor with out a pto, belt pulley, or hydraulics. it has only a swinging drawbar.
Is it possable to add hydraulics to this tractor?
also what are the proper sizes of the front and rear tires? The tires on this tractor are totally shot. The tractor comes with a set of 14.9x28 tires to put on the rear, but I'm thinking these might be a bit much for the WC. One last question , This tractor has two shift levers, the one for the transmission and ano6ther that would be between your legs when seated in the seat. would this be a hi/low range selector?
Thanks,
John

WC does not have hydraulics as standard equipment. It could be added via pto drive or other means. Front tires are generally 5.50-16, rears on a 48 would be 11-28- old size marking, 12-28 oversize, again, old size marking. (12-28 is 13.9 new size marking. A 14.9 (new size) would be the old 13 inch, and would require a 12 or 13 inch wqide rim.- doesn't fit WC. The second 'shift' lever you mention is not a shift lever- it is a disconnect for the drive axle. It can be shifted out of gear to let you raise the cultivator when you are in a tight spot- the cultivator had a mechanical lift (like on a plow)that required forward motion of the tractor during operation. The cultivator lift was driven behind the transmission, forward of the lever you mention, so dropping the lever allowed the tranny to run,along with the power lift(mounted with four bolts on top of the casting just forward of the lever you mention. The throwout lever was also an advantage, only slightly, when baling with the roto baler, since the lever could be shifted easier than the transmission lever- the t5ractor had to stop forward motion to wrap twine on each bale.
