I ran the neighbor's 4320 Deere with factory cab with heat & AC chisel plowing a couple days one fall. The chisel pulled harder than his Deere 5-14 plow, so plenty of heat. The day that tractor was delivered he had me go out and plow that afternoon & evening. It had 3.? sumthing hours on it, the AC worked fine. Plowed from about 3-4 PM till almost Midnight on a warm MAY evening and no sweat. Month later it gets hooked to the chopper and I'm going to chop haylage, and the AC doesn't work! EVER AGAIN.
Dad bought a KOEHN tractor cab, (pronounced Cane) was a light tubing frame, fiberglas tub for a top, a woven synthetic yarn like the cheap green, or blue, or silver tarps for sides to the enclosure and the engine, and plexiglas windows that slid up into the roof, also had a piece of fabric to cover the grill, keep engine very warm. Used it a time or two to chop corn stalks after picking, also disking stalks for plowing in the spring, all sealed up I stayed plenty warm even though it was open to the ground, open all the windows, remove the side covers, and it was a nice shady place to cultivate corn/beans, or combine oats. Was much easier to get on/off the 4010 with it on than the 450 Farmall, it converted from left rear entry to left front side entry, but climbing over the Fast Hitch on the 450 was a young person's sport. The canvas did not vibrate and amplify noise like a cheap steel cab would.

I wish I had something on my tractor I push snow with. Was plowing snow late one night, started getting flurries, then changed to sleet and started falling twice as hard. THAT was Very Unpleasant! Getting pelted with bits of ice.
I have 12V electrically heated glove liners and socks, I can keep my hands & feet warm but have to keep the cold draft from going down my back. Normally takes me 1/2 to 3/4 of an hour to clean everything.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
