I can give you some info. The 4010 is a very good tractor. They were built from 1960 to 1963. Parts avalilablity is very good. Other than the usual things to look for in an old tractor check the following items. Charging system. Is it the original 24 volt or has it been changed to 12 volt? Either way works, but be aware which system it has. Check for oil leaking around the lower wishbone piece that the lower three point hitch arms connect to. Not a major fix, but something to look for. There are 6 holes on the left side of the block. If they are dry, nothing to worry about. If the seals on the sleeves start to go either oil or coolant will leak out. This usually indicates an engine overhaul is in the near future. Check the underside of the fuel tank. They have been known to rust out. The PTO speeds are changed by changing the stub shaft. There is a pin under the stub shaft that shifts gears inside the transmittion. If it was forced then a pin breaks and you can't get it to shift speeds. The tractor has to be split to fix it. If you don't think you need to change then this may not be a big deal. Hope this helps John
