Saw a rather intersting implement I have never seen before. New Years day auction and spotted it. It was a manure fork for a three point. Kind of like a trip scoop but was much longer and had manure teeth on the rather small bucket. I am not sure if it would have lifted high enough to make the manure wagon?
I think it was made in Canada but I am not sure.
I went to $250 but the guy next to me really wanted it- showed no signs of stopping.
Anyone ever heard of or seen one of these? Any one have a picture to show my wife?
Just wondering

He's talking about a simple manure fork that was made for Ford tractors in the mid-50s. It mounted on the tph and had a hard time lifting enough to get manure into a spreader. The linkage couldn't get it much above the 11-28 inch tires on the 8N.

Well excuse me! There is nothing in his message to indicate that he was talking about just little gray Fords, and even if that is the case, I am sure that you can find one of these scoops in a size to fit your little tractor.

The one I have for the NAA has a factory lift-assist cylinder kit that bolts under the transmission housing that helped that problem.

I've still got a Forano rear loader out in the yard. I used it on a 50 horse Leyland for a few years and it was light years ahead of the 414 IH it replaced. I loaded all the manure from 700 hogs for two years with it into a 100 bushel spreader, budget at that time severely limited. I would recommend to anybody that they consider one of these but they are strictly back row stuff now. Do not attempt moving round bales with them.I had to do something different as I was spending far too much time moving manure, but if a person had a small herd of cattle and a limited budget, I think it would work well.

I saw one for sale at an auction in East central Wisconsin. It was on an old Ford. I can't remember if it was on the N series tractor or on the 801 series tractor. It hooked on the 3-point and lifted straight up on a boom like a forklift. They demonstrated it before they sold it, but I can't remember exactly how it worked. That was 2 or 3 years ago. Only one I've ever seen. If I remember right, the bucket went up about 6 feet.

I"ve got a Dearborn version of one for the NAA. If I can get this @#$#!@^% digital camera to work correctly with my computer (some sort of conflict keeps crashing it) I will post a picture here.

Tim,

I have found the problem with them new fangled digital cameras is that they ain't got no steel or cast iron in them. They don't have any 90W gear oil in them either.

What's an old tractor owner to do?!

Bill

Tom - I beieve they were made by Wifco or Sedore and were very popular here in the early to mid fifties. They were used on the early Ford N series and Fergies. Made for some sore necks but were good loaders because the weight was born by the rear wheels instead of the light front axles used by those tractors.
My neighbour had one for sale this summer and I was also very tempted to buy it but my sons threatened me bodily harm if I brought any more "junk".

I think I saw something like that made by John Deere at a tractor show once, had a long boom and the bucket scooped away from the tractor..
