Harry Ferguson was brilliant, changed farming for the better throughout the world forever.

Love my Ferguson to-30. 70 something years old and still runs like champ.

God bless this tractor! My 53 TO-30 has saved the day too many times to count.

I knew how the system worked but I watched every second of this film. I even rewound when the guy hit the metal stakes. I was impressed how the little tractor could lift the heavy implements at the end without the front coming off the ground. No wonder the industry adopted this system. Thanks J and L.

near the 25 minute mark the operator put his foot on the "highway" peg, thank you Harry Ferguson.

Harry Ferguson was a genius.

Good video👍 I love the old ferguson ❤️ Hello from France 🇫🇷

Thanks for posting the videos that you do. Just bought a 56 to-35 at auction. This original footage gives a perspective on what was going on then.

Yep, I'd like a demonstration. Do you have any request cards left? ;v)

The good old Ferguson 👍🏻

Brilliant great video

I love your vids much love

Thank you!

Love my 53 too. A neighbor makes fun of it, but we fed the world under the Marshall plan with such tractors. Trying to find a distributor cap for it right now, but good running tool no mater what.

Damn it I had a 1950 Ferguson T30

What goes wrong, when the hydraulic starts to vibrate ,up and down? Where do you adjust?

Tenho um exemplar desse que está a venda.. em excelente estado de conservação!

I’ve had a TO-30 since 2019 and the fingertip control lever isn’t quite so smooth these days

Update: replaced the lever fingertip control is restored

I've noticed that the Ford and Fergusons have the carburetor on right side of the tractor while other brands like AC, IH, Oliver, etc. have them on the left.

They also put the gas tank right over top the engine, for nice hot gasoline.

@@copperhead6132 i never thought about it until the guy across the street with a 135 asked me how i kept my Allis wd45 from vapor locking in the summer. I never had vapor lock on a tractor, heck, the manifold frosts up even in the hottest weather. (I used to have a 44 Massey Harris, the entire intake plentum would frost up when working ground) The gas tank on the Ferguson's and n series Ford's is directly over the engine and muffler, and the hood acts as an insulator, holding the heat it.

How does the pto affect traction on these tractors?

@thesteelrodent1796

Жыл бұрын

the PTO is is directly on the driveshaft through a simple clutch, so engaging the PTO creates resistance that causes less power to go into the wheels, which means there's less torque in the wheels when the PTO is on. The opposite happens when they disengage the PTO, which causes the torque that goes into the wheels to exceed the grip of the tires.

The pto shaft is what drives the hydraulic pump that controls the draft control. So when he turns off the pto the plows downward force inst carried by the tractor but drug behind it while also digging down deeper.
