While they didn't get into the US, they were relatively common here in Canada. We have two 510's here on our farm and I would disagree with the reliability statement. Both are working tractors and have to earn their keep.

Their hydraulic system was their weak point. Engines have been reliable and fuel effiecint. A synchronized trany would have been nice. Has LPTO. I have found some parts availability poor.

I see the restored tractor in your pic lacks some original parts. The seat is the wrong style and you are missing the plastic/rubber covers on the rad cap and fuel cap.

Wish ours looked that nice
