My Dad hated using 2-cylinder tractor on the belt or PTO driven equipment. He said that the 2-cylinderd wasn't steady enough to do a good job. We did use the JD G on the belt drive hammer mill if necessary, but the Case DC4 was a better tractor on the hammer mill.
He would never allow a 2-cylinder on the threshing machine as it would "POP the belt" and make a big noise that would frighten the teams of horses into run-aways that often ended up with a wrecked bundle wagon.

Your talking about 2 cylinders on PTO equipment brings back memories. We had a JD- A that we ran baler and flail chopper with and if you watched drive line you would see PTO shaft twitch every time tractor would fire. About every 2 years we had to replace a u joint in drive line of equipment. We latter went to an IH M and never had that problem again.

Harvesting with a stripper header in Victoria, Australia. Then back home to England and harveting potatoes with a Johnson single row harvester from the 1950's

My beloved old 105. Loved the combine, not so much the corn head.

Potato and Corn here.
Some favorites of mine. I was proud to be a part of this from spring planting to harvest that year with a great old friend and farmer. It was his last full year of crops before downsizing. This was early august of 2009, few miles east of troy ny.
The field is ours, and though a small one between 2 slopes, its kind of like bottom ground, water running either side of it, one side has a deposit of round rocks, 2 shale knolls, it always produces. I've seen it in oats, winter wheat, alfalfa/hay, and corn, crop yields were always good, though other things like birds and squirrels took their share when waiting on the moisture of the corn to go down, the yield was there.
On this crop, a bit more nitrogen was added at spray time, the straw yield literally doubled from the year before, and it did not lay down thankfully.
6620 with a 7000 series rear axle assembly and oversize front tires. They set it up like that for soft ground during fall harvest of corn. Though you had to be cognizant of those front wheels and axles, this thing kept their harvest going, it sure made some huge ruts on a rented farm that I fondly remember repairing with the front 3150/front loader and an '02 450 JD dozer we had access to through another deal with someone dropping clean fill on his land.

Melfort Sask. I was in Melfort once. Went to supper there with friends from St. Benedict when I was on the harvest. It's about as far north as agriculture goes in that part of Saskatchewan. There was a big Allis Chalmers dealer there on the south side of the tracks if I remember right. Prince Albert is west of Melfort maybe 50 miles or so. I've gotta visit that country again sometime.
