Fordson F small tractor. Suitable for small plows. My Father pulled a 2 disk oliver plow on wheels with the Fordson, also a small smoothing harrow. Tractor was hard to start. I remember once during cold weather he had a small fire, probably coals from another fire, under the crankcase to heat the oil so it could be spun over by the hand crank. Fordson had a manual spark advance on the dash. It was started with spark in one position, then gradually advanced as the tractor warmed up.
Fordsons had foot clutch with a braking mechanism built in it.
Fordson had no cultivating equipment, was too close to the ground to clear crops.
At Biltmore estate, Ashville, NC, there is a picture of one of the Vanderbilt women riding a Fordson pilling a plow.
