  IMPORTANT - IMPORTANT - IMPORTANT I have operated countless hours and had many experiences with the Ford 8N using several implements. The bush-hog is obviously the most dangerous. While with general improvements and maintenance, that bush-hog you bought will give you great service. My issues fall in two categories: #1. Tractor/Bush-Hog combination. The Ford 8N has a "non-live PTO". What does that mean ? It means when you connect the bush-hog, recognize that it spins a very heavy mass at high speed thereby generating enormous energy that can't be stopped like a flail mower. When you are mowing and push in the clutch, the energy remains in effect and is directly connected to the engines crankshaft. That means regardless if you apply the clutch, the power-train will continue until the energy is dissipated. Simply stated ... if you're mowing and come to a fence or building, the energy stored in the blades will push the tractor (and you) through the fence or building. REMEDY: Go to Tractor Supply and buy (not expensive) a "PTO over-running clutch adapter". This allows the bush-hog blades to continue spinning with no effect on the power-train. It can save your life. And yes ... when you let out the clutch the power-train and blades will become recoupled and continue mowing. #2. Blade Sharpening: Find a mentor that you trust to advise you. For me ... I would remove the blades and note the gash deviations for depth while holding the blades together. Draw a line from the blade tip back to the bevel to include the gash depth on both blades (treating them as one blade). Grind the edged portion flat (the same amount and same angle on both blades) to a point where the gashes are gone. When the blades match in shape, apply a grind to provide an edge, making sure to have the beveled edge the same on both blades. What you're doing here is creating a matched mass on both sides. Because the center hub is normally concentric, having the blades match in mass will give you the best chance of a balanced turning mass. Safe operating my friend.

  Thanks for your comment. I’m not at all concerned about using the mower without an over running clutch I have operated these old tractors from a young age mainly Fergusons also without over running clutches. I just know when I need to stop. I also do own an over running clutch but I have had bad experience with them disintegrating the roll pin there for coming loose and hitting the pto shaft housing. I would recommend an over running clutch for anyone new to these machines and with this setup. Personally I would never use one again

  More questions from me I hope you will answer. I have the same tractor now. My PTO shaft had a troubled life. Its toast! I have a complete new shaft assembly with the larger size splines to make it more current. My PTO Lever is very, very stiff to operate. I can engage my PTO and it works (put the splines are toast so I can not use it as is), but disengagement takes a very hard pull and my lever just reaches 12:00 O'Clock position and does not cant towards the front of the tractor like it shows in the manual. My question: Can I remove the PTO lever/cover assembly like it shows yours removed in the beginning of this KZread? I want to see in there to make sure I can get the old PTO shaft out and hopefully it isn't stuck or bent. It does not vibrate and spins correctly even though the splines are all bent (rear). I was hoping I could gain some advantage by removing the lever and cover assembly that could help me remove the old shaft assembly. Your thoughts and advice please?

• 
  @jactor7274Ай бұрын

  Yes you can remove the pto lever cover and the lever is all attached to the cover it’s very simple. Then you can take a peek inside. Make sure you don’t spill any fluids out the cover though lol. But the pto shaft should easily slide out once you unbolt those 4 bolts on the back of the pto

  Is the valve cover vent on your tractor clogged as that could cause over pressure of the crank case and the leaks you pointed out. I suspect you have already done the head gasket. But if not, two things often work: 1.) Just repeat the head torque sequence and add 5ftlb to the final torque, and 2.). "K-Seal". It is snake oil that works. I used on my Son's Mazda RX-8 Rotary Engine with blown internal coolant seals, and on my 1996 GMC 3/4 Ton 4x4 7.5 Liter, Suburban with 227,000.00 miles on it. The Mazda was blowing white smoke from water in the chambers and everyone said it was dead. It has 37,000.00 more miles on it now and has never had a problem. The Suburbans with 454/7.5 Liters tend to blow head or intake manifold gaskets over 170,000.0 miles. Mine started loosing water and smelled like coolant when parked. I was adding at least 2 quarts of water a day. I put in K-Seal and its been about 12,000.0 miles and I haven't added a drop of coolant since putting in the K-Seal. The stuff works!

  How many bolts per side does it take to remove the hood assembly like you did? I have not investigated mine. The previous owner told me I can pivot the assembly forward on the two bolts at the bottom of the grill that you removed. Is that true? Please pardon my dumb questions. I did not grow up with tractors or on a farm and my old Jubilee is the first tractor I ever owned (I'm 67 years old). I just got it running and now want to make the improvements and restorations you have as I have someone to follow. I have lived on 2 acres for the past 45 years and have maintained it with a John Deere 317 and just recently for fun purchased an outstanding John Deere 140 with all implements. So I know Garden Tractors, but nothing about real tractors or 3 points. I have another dumb question: What is the mason jar elbow extension that I see sometimes sticking out from where the air filter grill is on the left side of the hood? Why do some people have that on their tractor and others don't? What does it do? Thank you.

• 
  @jactor72742 ай бұрын

  That’s all good these are very good questions. Yes you can flip the hood up with the 2 bolts left in but I find that the hood is super flimsy so I just take it right off. There’s the bolts at the front and there’s bolts around the dash cluster. The mason jar you mentioned came on some models as a feature it would collect chaff to stop it going into the air filter system

• 
  @benkanobe75002 ай бұрын

  @@jactor7274 Yes. You did as others here on YT have done: You left the bearing race at the very bottom of the steering gear case in because it is at the very bottom and always still gets lubricant and so does not deteriorate like the other bearings higher up. You did (said you did and showed it in the video) replace but not show how the large bearing race at the bottom of the steering column tube. That is difficult because unlike a wheel bearing there is not cut out behind the bearing seat to put a drift and drift out the race. So I was wondering how you removed it from the blind hole it is in at the bottom of the steering shaft tube. Mine is toast and needs to be replaced. Thank you for your responses and excellent videos. I have learned a great deal from you.

  If you mean the lower plate inside the bell housing, I’m pretty sure that it holds the bearing and clip for the gears. Maybe try looking up a manual for that. I never went in behind that plate so I’m not sure what to expect but from my experience so far I would research before opening it up.

  Old gray tractors often did not have a two-stage clutch. That is, the power take off rotates as well as the axle if it is in gear. When you press the clutch, the one slows at the same speed as the other. Try to avoid running it through a garage door. In my case I parked my Ferguson on top of a boulder by the time I got the thing slowed down. An inexpensive over-running clutch attaches just ahead of the mower's pto shaft, and takes care of the problem.
