Farmall M Discing with an International 370 Disc

Farmall M Discing with an International 370 Disc. Very old farm machinery in operation on the farm. Vintage farm tractor in operation on the farm. #FarmallFanatic #farmall #farmallm

[@tree57]

Thanks for the memories! My grandfather had an M and 2 H’s and that’s what he farmed with. I learned how to operate the H and graduated to the M to disk and to run the square bailer in the late 60’s!

Gosh - as a kid I operated an old M, loved every minute of it. Always loved the sound of the transmission gears singing away. These Farmall videos takes me back , thanks for sharing !

[@marcelinodavila4909]

That engine sound brings brings back 63 year old memories of when l was 15 years old. Good ole years in the mid 50's, Coca Cola's for 5 cents, reg. gas for 17 cents a gal. a bargain to fill the ole M. Back then l just part-time helped at my brother-in-law's farm. Stay safe from that monster epidemic and a big howdy from South Texas where l'm spending my retirement years on our small sixty acre ranch. Time does fly.

[@FarmallFanatic]

I can remember when candy bars were 15 cents. I just bought one yesterday for a $1.59

[@hturbo1007]

Thumbs up for whoever was operating the camera while you were running the tractor. 👍 Man I always love the sound of an M working.

[@XSB-en5bg]

She pulled like she had nothing behind her!! Very nice!! Thank you again!!

[@molcs]

Thanks for showing us how it's done. Stay safe Farmall!

[@americanaxetoolco2076]

I did have some IH 8 foot discs they did the job behind one of the Super H’s! We had some bigger Sunflower tools later on we used the big Massey on! My son has the Super M I learned on, with a IH 10 foot disc and an Oliver 4 - 14’s trailer plow! Great video!

[@gonerydin4225]

I enjoy watching you do the exact same thing I did 50+ years ago.

[@jimoakley3436]

That old M pulling and making noise brings back memories. No spinners back in the day, especially when plowing in dead furrows.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Its gone now lol

[@jimoakley3436]

Didn't plow with thumbs though steering wheel either. Still have Dad's old Super H,she needs a lot of work,but not locked up,transmission problems and stored inside since it was retired.

[@rayhayden]

Dropping another LIKE on your video! Watching and Supporting! The discs are a hoot, and I can see why they would need a lot of TLC to maintain, they are working against each other just to disc the field!

[@Snowtruckdriver]

I grew up on John Deere but had an uncle that always ran the "red" lol. I got to drive his "M" several times. Good video

[@ihus9950]

Looks like you were having fun, rain and snow here. Hope all is well, for you and family. Be Safe Bud👍

[@kenfarmer3266]

The sound of that tractor takes me back to another time about 50 years ago

[@texaslifejulie8533]

Big M doing a good job! Nothing like getting back in the fields after a long Winter.

[@AaricHale]

I learned something new about charging the battery . It's cool that you able to get out and do some tilling . The M was running good ! I'm hoping to get out today to do some tilling .

[@AaricHale]

I'm glad I went back and watched this video for the info

[@PaulOtis]

She's looking good! Thanks for sharing!

[@timgilchrist3065]

That old M is purring nicely.

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Thanks for keeping the videos flowing during tough times..

[@richardreid6377]

Nice to see the train. Those are ballast hoppers; for adding rock to the track bed. They have been doing some track work somewhere. ;)

[@FarmallFanatic]

Hiw did you know that? 😯

[@Emmo213]

@@FarmallFanatic Great video, and thanks for including the train! You can tell those are ballast hoppers because at the bottom there are the four hopper doors (two on each side) that are facing to the sides of the track. If those were coal hoppers either a) the hopper doors would be facing down in between the track or b) there wouldn't be any hopper doors because the cars are emptied by turning the cars upside down on a rotary dumper.

[@crslyrn]

The ol' M is looking & sounding good working the ground. Good tip about the electronic ignition. Stay safe.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Thanks 👍

[@jacobphillips4622]

The sound of those old farmalls to me is very relaxing

[@defuse56]

Field work is a real pleasure when everything is working right--soil moisture, tractor hydraulics, disk the right size. If it were always like this, life would be grand! But it's your hard work and skill that got you here. Huzzah!

[@CPthetooladdict]

Great vid love watching these old tractors!!

[@terrywolfe4160]

Love your energy, I’ve always been a green fan but I appreciate your love for the red!

She's sounding great buddy!

[@adventurerhoades]

Nice setup perfect match. Full play including ads. Smashed like button. Congrats on 12k. Awesome skills on the electronics. My uncle has a farm in southern Michigan. The train runs from Chicago to Detroit. Does an awesome job with that disc. Purring nice.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Thank you!

[@markcornell986]

With how crazy it is know you made me smile,thanks Farmall...

[@donplautz9788]

Love hearing your M Farmall sounds great

[@JohnAvantiBK]

BOOM! Thanks Farmall. The charger is good to have small and compact.

[@richardschaffling9882]

Looks good and it is great smelling the freshly turned dirt

[@FarmallFanatic]

Sure is

[@farmerpete]

I have an International 350 disc, 20" blades. Those old discs do a nice job.

[@FarmallFanatic]

10' ?

[@farmerpete]

Yup

[@FarmallFanatic]

This 13 footerr is all the M wants. I'd love to find a set of 350 8 footers for my H

[@jamesphilpot1587]

That disk looks like a model 37

Nice "Old Iron" sounds really good and its doing a nice job

[@scary_olive_gurl13_scary]

I haven’t seen you in about a year but I will try to locate you more often. You do good work with older red tractors. I give you 2 thumbs up 👍 !!!

[@FarmallFanatic]

Much appreciated 🙏

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Good to see the M earning her keep in the field!!

[@PaulBorsJr]

Great video. I’ll start heading down now to move the Loadstar out of the way for you. I’m a few hours out, so do a few more circles around the stinkin telephone pole. I can’t wait to get the H out and hooked up to the Little Genius to turn my garden over. I’ll disc with the John Deere B though, gotta be a group effort because I like all the colors.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Haha right on

[@LauraBruno33]

Red Power BOOM! Thanks Farmall.

[@johnhall1614]

Thanks for the info on the electronic ignition. I've been planning on putting one on my A, now I will know about that.

[@FarmallFanatic]

You're welcome...glad to help

[@truenorthangler]

Looks like you’re very happy with the new added fuel filter system. Nothing but fuel entering the carburetor. Looks like some nice weather coming to dry up the rest of the field. I did notice something different in this video, you had someone helping you record. Nice to see everything from a different angle. BOOM! Adrian

[@FarmallFanatic]

Yeah I couldn't quite talk them into climbing the tree though lol

[@RandWFarmstead-TonyWalsh]

Great to see that old iron back at work.

[@KathyDurbin]

Awesome find. Great video and good infor.

[@silverbarnfarms5640]

That disk is a perfect match for the M. Pulls it really good

[@MikeTidman]

I thought it would be a tough pull for the M, but she handled it alright.

[@terrycastor8299]

Our BIG tractor was a 1948 Farmall H. The other was a 1928 Farmall F12 or so my Dad told me, but my research has indicated F12's weren't built in 1928. Whatever year it was, it was fun to operate as was the H.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Right off the top of my head I believe they were made In 1932

[@irvinslagter8298]

International Harvester was very involved in making many things for the war effort in WW2 including tractors. A google search of "International Harvester in World War Two" will reveal a lot. It's hard to say why the castings weren't used sooner, but I reckon they had other things on there mind beside keeping everything in proper order. As for the fuel filters, if you have a clean tank and use your tractor regularly, there's really no need for a fuel filter. We ran one back in the 50's for years and never heard of a fuel filter. Also, some tractors have the tank outlet just barely above the carburetor bowl , and the resistance of the filter will reduce or stop the flow. Two filters would for sure!! As an aside, I NEVER run ethanol in any of my old tractors. It's just asking for trouble with the fuel system!!! Those old "M"'s were/are a great tractor. Ours was a 47 with an M&W overdrive which added gears between the wide spacing of the original ones. I spent a lot of hours on the seat of that old girl!

[@FarmallFanatic]

My 756 gas has no filter on it

[@Kugerand727]

Cool man. Really nice set up

[@Gixzer04]

That’s key to bearing life , if it’s a long sweep I’ll keep it down but watch it. Easy to do when you have the HP especially. That’s a solid gang you’re pulling there , imagine what a few pounds on those wheels would do ..... haha yea gotta love phone poles 🤦‍♂️

[@FarmallFanatic]

Its all the M wanted lol

[@Ham68229]

Those spinner knobs were designed for steering wheels that sit more horizontal vs vertical like the old "M's" do. They're handy as all get out but, if used on the wrong steering wheel, will cause you a "hand ache". Knew she'd do good even with double filters on. I run double filters on my storage tanks, been told that, that's a waste. Not a waste when my tanks stay cleaner and the engines run smoother because of the "dirt" and water is getting filtered out. As for the electronic ignition, have to admit, didn't know that. Sounds like you have a scraper dragging? Also, ain't no such thing as over greasing something. Great video, cheers :)

[@bobpaterson1845]

Really impressive performance from the old M there an never missed a beat 👍👍

[@FarmallFanatic]

No doubt

[@chucklucas8747]

Love the old school way this new stuff is crap that little M is a sweet machine

[@FarmallFanatic]

I agree...plastic computerized junk

[@GoFastGator]

“Little” M 😝 that wasn’t the case back in ‘45. You were ballin’ if you were rolling an M!

[@billsteinly8105]

The farm I grew up on had a pole in the middle of a field. The farm also had a few lonely shade trees scattered throughout the property. Most of them are gone now. Looking back I think that was one of the things that gave the farm its character. Another thing is the old out buildings near the barn.

[@FarmallFanatic]

I wish I was alive when they put that pole in, it's been there for decades

[@AliMackMechanical]

Nice one on tje oil buddy. Handy we pump mate. Lol flat battery we can't charge a battery out side it will rain. I wont get this problem we got derv lol.😂 Silly boy burning out coil module's. Good to see you putting her to work buddy.👍

[@madtater5948]

I really like your disc,I have an old Towner disc it's about 7 ft wide with two axles I wieght mine down with railroad tracks it really makes the disc dig in. the Towner disc uses 90 weight gear oil for lubrication love your video

Good job, nothing runs better than a Farmall

[@FarmallFanatic]

Agree

[@robertpayne2717]

We had 2 480 iHC dosc a 14 foot and 19.6 foot we disced usually 60 and 80 acres per day respectively. After talking with a farmer friend we took his recommendation and started greasing the gang bearings less than recommended instead of every 10 hours we started greasing every other day. And then only one or two shots with a hand grease gun.. those bearing seals are sensitive you only want to see a slight amount of swelling on the seal when greasing if you put to much in you blow the seal.. by doing that you extend the life of the bearing..The 480 disc were notoriously for stretching the Axles but that was from over torquing the gang axle nits...

[@Gixzer04]

Almost as much fun as discing a pumpkin patch. Dirt sure is working well thru that disc 👌

[@Biber0315]

Music to my ears!

Love that little craftsman compressor! Wonder if they have one for Dewalt version as it is what I have for batteries on hand? And yes, thanks for showing the train lol. Great vid, great watch

[@FarmallFanatic]

That is a great question I know they've been out on the market for yours so they probably do

[@America-First2024]

Pulling a disc.......has to be the best job available! In my opinion. The smell of exhaust and freshly opened soil! I’m jealous!

[@FarmallFanatic]

I was just gonna say both things

[@FarmallFanatic]

Thanks Bob 👍

[@gavinhenderson3861]

You have a good set of disks

[@dgc1929]

There shouldn't be any voltage going to your electronic ignition if your key is off. I have a Farmall A that has had the electronic ignition on it for almost four years now, and I keep a trickle charger on it all summer long, has never burned the ignition out of it. I have a six foot belly mower on it, all I do is cut grass with it.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Then I need to change my Ignition switch. I also do not recommend jump starting it.

[@penningtonjoe]

Around 40 years ago we found out that we were going thru a lot more disc bearings by over greasing than by greasing only once a week. When grease squirts outside the bearing it attracts dirt and that will eventually get under the bearing seal and either wear out the bearing or ruin the seal itself. Some local farmers use to argue that the I.H. sealed disc bearings would outlast the grease able ones.

[@FarmallFanatic]

Now that is interesting, I have one sealed bearing on this whole disk.

[@bradmuth1014]

I have cub loboy with a electronic ignition and I use a trickle charger all the time and never had any problems

[@robertlong7033]

Oh the joy of light poles stuck in the middle of the field. But, don't get too excited about planting season because come the end of next week this part of the state is expected to be back in winter like conditions.The old M did perform well but seeing those breaks in the rear tires might be time to start setting some money aside for new rear tires. But given how well that unit appears to be working it will be money well spent when the time arrives.

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Man, I can smell that fresh dirt!! Rain/snow showers here today :(

I'm 52 now but we had a M and a H when I was a kid and farmed about 50 acres in southern Michigan . The H fired every time but the M always had to be pull started . They both had 6 V systems .We had a friend who had a 12 V in his M and it fired no problem . We also had a Farmall one row corn picker , do you know how long it takes to run 50 acres of corn with a one row picker LOL . Thanks for the memories

Hahaha yes i do know

Can't believe what that M does. You can cover lots of acres in a day with it. You could just use this tractor and the necessary equipment you have and sell the rest. A couple hundred acres could be farmed with it and the H.
