I had a 58 720 diesel. I have no video of it but in my last video about the 100 year history on this farm, I got to put a couple pictures of it up. They were awesome tractors. Mine was electric start with a wide front end. I pulled a 4x14’s pull type plow with it in the clay hills here in northeast Iowa. I wish I had never sold it.

Spectacular "John Deere 730"!!!!.. Congratulations!!!!👍👏💪💚💛🇺🇸

Thank you!!

very soporific, very relaxing listening to this. nice running 730.

Those 730 diesels were very fuel efficient, a neighbor of mine had one when he was a young farmer, he said it used less than a gallon of fuel/hour raking hay

Nice work tractor sounds great

Plowing in 1st, more than likely discing in 2nd. Thanks for watching!

Good job thanx

This is the proper use of a tractor, not pulling a sled in a silly pulling contest.

I miss the sound of these 2 cylinder tractors and driving them. Still wish I had one

Never should have stopped making these tractors! They were great 👍. Not like the overpriced star wars equipment on the market nowadays!

Little bit of wheel slip is a good thing.

Most tractors have some amount of wheel dlip

I was always told that you plowed all day with a putt putts and then sound from one in your sleep

yeah, 4 -5 bottoms but its also not working at all! warm it up, let it sweat a bit!

JD two bangers took off move fingers from hooking up a wagon hitch then any tractor. Had to ride the brakes backing up to hook up.

Only if you're stupid. Back up a little too far, then put drawbar pin in while inching forward. I grew up and still have 2 cyl. & fingers.

I pulled a 4 bottom plough with a 730 in pasture like this with no problems. Unless this fellow did not have a bigger plough. By the way, why did he remove his fenders? They are there for a reason.

That was an option on 730s

Sounds like you are running that tractor about half throttle, if so you are not doing that diesel engine any favors, open her up and let it pull. Nice tractor for sure.

Sounds like you haven’t been around to many 2 cylinder JD’s the operating rpm for a 730 diesel is only 1125 rpm. It’s not a 4020 JD.

Jim, 3 bottoms are plenty for our small, hilly fields in southwestern Pennsylvania. With an extra 1,500 lbs. of rear weights plus heavy cast centers we were starting to lose traction on the last few passes.
