I've worked on dozens of those,and have owned a half dozen of them.If things are right,you can drive those tractors with one finger of each hand.Now if the fiber facings are gone off the cams,(clutches)they will still work fine,but you have to manhandle the levers to make them do the job.If the clevis pins are worn you will have to work hard to run them too.If things are right and properly set up there is less lever resistance than a hydro machine.You have to work pretty hard to get an old 500,600,610,etc.stuck.The old Cases from that vintage would get stuck in a heavy rain.To this day I can't run a Case with the flipper hand controls.When I worked at a JD dealer we had a little JD skidsteer.I think it had an Onan engine in it,but it was real handy.It had the T handle drive,but with the foot bucket/boom controls it did work nicely.It was jumpy like the Bobcats though.That is the only bad thing I will say about those old machines,as much as I like the way they are built,I think they are very dangerous if you are not used to running machinery.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
