Bought the Moline this morning for $1000.00 Canadian which would be about $750.00 US, last ran two years ago. Have to wait until the snow is gone before I bring it home. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did MM's use the Ferguson system or the other style rear lift? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bc.gold 3,403 #32 Posted December 25, 2020 (edited) Yes the first numbers I posted are from the engine, the tractor is a UTS . Very few tractors had an after market type of 3 point. This tractor does not have it, I'm going to rob the Eagle hitch from the Case 300 series then adapt it. The only implement I have that requires a 3 point is a snow blower. The PTO and belt drive pulley are what makes my day. According to tractor data the engine runs at an incredibly low 1300 rpm, that engine must have an incredible amount of torque. The LP gas model runs even lower rpm's at 1275, both the gas a diesel engines share the same bore and stroke. Bore/Stroke: 4.25x5.00 inches Drawbar (claimed): 31 hp PTO (claimed): 42 hp Drawbar (tested): 41.05 hp Belt (tested): 46.87 hp Edited December 25, 2020 by bcgold 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
