Farmall H Plowing a Field

Farmall H Plowing a Field. Very old farm tractor in operation on the farm. Vintage tractors working on the farm. #FarmallFanatic #farmallh #farmall

Farmall Tractors were first sold in Texas. The company wasn’t sure if the tricycle front end was going to go over. I restored a 49 M on gasoline few years ago. Traded it for 560 factory propane. Wide front.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Interesting...560 was a huge step up

Farmall, nice looking soil down there. The outfit is working nicely and looks to be cutting an excellent straight line. It's no use pushing the plows limits and snapping the frame. Cheers, thanks for the vid.

Your camera person did a great job for you today. You should double their pay. You can really tell when you drop you right wheels into the furrow that your plows are being pulled straight and level. The back wheel seems to be working really well. Do you normally set your plows so deep? The new gas cap seems to be working well at not allowing fuel to run down the side of your tank. Did you have to adjust your carburetor, or did it work itself out? You were talking about wearing a cap because of the UV rays. Growing up in Kansas, all the farmers around my dad's farm (including my dad) had these large straw hats and none of the sides were turned up like the “Cowboys”. They were round and flat so the sun would not burn their necks. Oh well, this was a great video. Keep up the good work.

[@FarmallFanatic]

As long as it's turning the dirt over, I will go is deep as I can into the ground. I did a very slight adjustment on the carburetor and yes that gas cap is working perfect.

I have an extensive operating engineer background. Closest example I can think of is the normal operating speed of ships.All ships have a design cruising speed usually around 12 knots:around 15MPH. All ships can also operate at a much higher speed that we call flank speed in the Navy.At cruising speed the ship would hum along for days and months on end with less than 1% equipment issues. At flank speed things would start to go wrong within days: equipment could operate at high speed but wasn't designed to operate at high speed indefinitely.Same with most all mechanical devices: all out causes stress and stress is an equipment killer.

[@FarmallFanatic]

From a physics perspective alone it just makes sense

[@HumbleHaymakers]

2 gear is plow gear. You can tell. Ms and Hs seem to like about 3/4 throttle too when plowing. They don't mind lugging a little bit. You just have an easier time of it and you think " man those old guys had a different mindset about being in a hurry about work in general." So, Red Power, take me back to the old days! Boom! A cheap time machine. The original owner of that was probably using horses before he got that tractor and he was thinking "Wow, I'm hauling ass".

[@McGieHomesteadAdventures]

I watched every second of it (as always) and I still don’t know why you started by ploughing out by the woods and in on the rest of the field....... but I’m guessing it’s to allow a drainage 🤔🤔🤔

[@FarmallFanatic]

It prevents the field from turning into a bowl and collecting water. You always want your edges turned inward not outward

[@tyfrank3427]

Your H has the good wheels. It has the type of lugs that are riveted to the rims. The early Hs had the clamp on wheels with 3 lugs, similar to the back, but smaller. The W-4 and W-6 series tractors didn't use that style of hub until 1952. The Super W-6 went back to lugs on the front wheels, but they use 5 lugs like the W-9s and 18" wheels.

[@BoxieOutdoors]

Okay as you know I le when you play with the H. I believe you were plowing with what you have alle the little genius. You said you were plowing 10" all day long. 1st question. Was that the depth you were talking. The 2nd if it was the depth how wide are the blades 15s? Looked like you we just fine in the lower gear. Have a BLESSED day.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Yes that was the depth and the blades r 16" wide

[@BoxieOutdoors]

@@FarmallFanatic Hey, not too bad I was only 1" off. Does size really matter 😂😂 I'm learning this stuff, It was turning the dirt just perfect. I actually was noticing where the tractor would get to a spot and sound like it was digging and working that red power a bit more. I just thought about that area being wet and then you mentioned it. The Ol "H" sounded good.
