IH commissioned an industrial designer, Raymond Loewy, to give the new Farmall general-purpose tractors a sleek new streamlined look. International Harvester was one of the earliest manufacturers to provide a stepless transmission in a row crop tractor. An economical cylinder sleeve and piston change was all that was needed.

Selling for $545.00 in 1947, the Cub proved extremely popular, and the original design continued in production without significant alteration until 1979. Top. Introduced first as an option on 656 and 544 tractors, the hydrostatic transmission would become a defining feature of the 70 Hydro and 100 Hydro models. However, even the Fast Hitch had three incompatible variants (100—single prong; 200—two small prongs; 300/400—two large prongs). The original Farmall is widely viewed as the first tractor to combine a set of traits that would define the row-crop tractor category, although competition in the category came quickly. Farmall (a part of International Harvester) Total built: 66,290: The Farmall 140 was restyled in late 1963 at tractor serial number 23301. The massive boilerplate frame and iron housings of the old IH tractors were slowly phased out for lighter, less-expensive components. This latter step is what changed the financial picture to heavily favor the mechanization of agriculture. These models all utilized direct-start diesel engines. Like many agricultural and construction/industrial diesel engines of the time, the early IHC diesels were not direct-start; the operator started the engine on gasoline, then manually switched it to diesel fuel after warming up the entire engine.

IH's machine was not particularly successful; the Moline Universal was more successful, but its parent company nevertheless faced dire financial straits. This provided on-the-go shifting to suit varied needs; the operator was offered ten forward gears and two reverse, instead of the usual five and one. Farmalls in other shades are known to exist; these were most likely custom ordered from the factory. [14] As tractor production was a mainstay of the company, IH realized they would have to modernize and re-engineer their tractor line, lowering costs where possible in order to remain competitive. 1. Detailed tables of model names, years, engine displacements, horsepower ratings, production quantities, serial number ranges, and other statistics are available in reference books on the subject.[16]. Although the new tractors did improve sales, IH's innate conservatism and reluctance to update their tractor line in response to changing times was becoming apparent. [12] In 1957, IH again gave the tractor lineup an overhaul. IH showed off their new 60 series of tractors: including the first of their kind, large six-cylinder 460 and 560 models. In mid-1936, a decision was made to change the entire tractor (frame, sheet metal, engine, and wheels) to a new color, 'Farmall Red'. The Farmall name itself began as a model name and then evolved to encompass a model line. Farmall Starter, 6 Volt - New 6 volt starter for tractor models A, B, C, Super A, Super C, 100, 140 (to serial number 26800), 200, 230, 240. It was intended for small operations with 21 HP. [13], At the Hinsdale, Illinois Testing Farm in July 1958, IH entertained over 12,000 dealers from over 25 countries. $1,250. [5] By 1923,[3][6] they settled on a configuration, and their informal name for the project, the "Farmall", was selected as the product's official name. Although IHC's very first diesel-engine tractor was a "Standard" model WD-40 built from 1935 to 1940, the very first "Farmall" diesel tractor was the model MD released in 1941. With the success of the Farmall line, other manufacturers soon introduced similar general- to all-purpose tractors with varying success. Thus, beginning in 1932, the Farmall brand had grown from a single model to a model line, which became known as the F-series. Production of the Cub commenced at the newly acquired Farmall Works-Louisville plant (formerly the wartime Curtiss-Wright Aircraft factory in Louisville, Kentucky) which was expanded, remodeled and re-equipped. Tous les tracteurs Fiat. TRACTEURS ET MOTEURS FIXES. The popular TA attachment was seen upon most of the new 300 and 400 Farmalls that first appeared in 1955, and on the 350 and 450 produced 1956–1958, and on later models through the 1960s. Being an amalgamation, IH, like General Motors, gradually evolved a brand architecture during the first half of the 20th century, when the concept was still new.

Generally tractors were marketed by the number of 16" width plows they could pull in average soil to indicate their power. The Fast Hitch was IH's answer to the three-point hitch developed years earlier by Harry Ferguson, and featured on Ford-Ferguson tractors. However, many Farmalls remain in farming service, and many others are restored and collected by enthusiasts. There are kits available from a variety of sources that will either convert a Fast Hitch to a three-point, or add a three-point hitch to tractors that originally only had a fixed drawbar. The Hydro 1066 had less drawbar power than the gear-drive 1066 due to hydrostatic slippage, leading to the creation of the Hydro 100.

Culti-Vision proved to be IH's longest-lived engineering feature, staying in production from 1939 to 1979. The traits included (a) 'tricycle' configuration (a single front wheel or narrowly spaced pair), high ground clearance, quickly adjustable axle track, excellent visibility all around and under the machine, and light weight; (b) sufficient power for plowing and harrowing, and a belt pulley for belt work; and (c) all at low cost, with a familiar brand and an extensive distribution and service network. Here is a list of plow ratings (see footnotes) for all Farmall tractors produced for North America: There were also some Farmall models unique to the European market: DF-25 (comparable to the H), DGD4 (comparable to the Super H), BMD (British MD) and B-450 (British 450). Tractor & Construction Plant Wiki is a FANDOM Lifestyle Community. A farmer could look out across the fields and see his neighbor's tractor from a great distance and know what make it was; this provided a sort of advertising in the intensely competitive tractor market. Around 1920, as IH's motor cultivator died, a team of IH engineers was experimenting with an all-purpose tractor, replacing the horse in every job including cultivating. $950. IH's first effort to solve this problem was a motor cultivator, a class of machine that various companies were building and selling in the late 1910s and early 1920s. favorite this post Feb 11 ...

On the larger models, the 'tricycle' type, narrow-spaced front wheel design was retained, as it provided quick steering and a considerable improvement in maneuverability over competing tractors such as the Ford 9N. The extra gears of the Farmall tractors helped maximize the engine's power band and road speed, giving a sales advantage over the competition. For example, in the 1950s and 60s it was very popular to upgrade the Super M-TA and 400 model 264 cid engine to 281 cid. In 1932, IH updated the Farmall Regular with a more powerful engine, and renamed it F-20. Démontage remontages des éléments du tracteur et des moteurs de la série.

Many machines (especially the two largest models, the H and M) are still in operation on farms today. For large orders, any color scheme could be accommodated at the factory. The Farmall 140 anchored the bottom the IH line from 1957 to 1979. During the decades of Farmall production (1920s to 1980s), most Farmalls were built for row-crop work, but many orchard, fairway, and other variants were also built. The A, B, and C all used essentially the same engine but the C ran at a higher RPM and so yielded higher horsepower. The Farmall Cub, A, B, 100, 130, and 140 models had the seat offset from the engine, allowing the operator to look directly at the ground under the tractor. This model was built from 1949 until 1954. The Farmall was thus similar to a Fordson in its capabilities and affordability, but with better cultivating ability. Although the basic design was still not changed to any significant degree, new white paint was added to the front grille and sides, new engines were introduced, and new number designations were added. $8,200 (1979 ) The International 140 began as the industrial version of the Farmall 140. 1979 International 140 GARDEN tractor CSA ORGANIC $5,000 (Woodbury) pic hide this posting restore restore this posting. $0. search titles only has image posted today bundle duplicates include nearby areas columbia / jeff city (cou); decatur, IL (dil); des moines, IA (dsm); fayetteville, AR (fyv); fort smith, AR (fsm); jackson, TN (jxt); jonesboro, AR (jbr); joplin, MO (jln); kansas city, MO (ksc); kirksville, MO (krk); lake of the ozarks (loz); lawrence, KS (lwr) 1952 to 1953 model m Farmall trike tractor $750 (Saint George SC 24977) pic hide this posting restore restore this posting. $3,700.

In this timeframe, all Farmall models are row-crop tractors, all International models are utility tractors. During the Letter series era, these alternate models were sold under the McCormick-Deering brand; later models were badged with the International brand. Its narrow-front tricycle design, high ground clearance to clear crop plants while cultivating (helped by a portal axle [drop gearset]), power take-off (a feature on which IH was an early leader[9]), and standard mounting points for cultivators and other implements on the tractor's frame (a Farmall first[10]) gave it some competitive advantages over the Fordson, especially for row crops, and it became the favorite row-crop tractor of America, outselling all other competitors (such as John Deere's).[7]. All Farmall tractors were painted a deep blue-grey until mid-1936 (around July through September). The Hundred series models used numbers instead of letters to identify the model. $75. In June of that year, IH recalled the 460, 560, and 660 tractors after reports of mechanical breakdown in the field. The list is basically to provide links to articles related to the individual models. IH subsequently developed their own line of new direct-start diesel engines for the 460 and 560 tractors starting in 1958. The new machines also became vastly more complex, though easier to operate. A few clever mechanics have created "home-brew" IH models, the so-called Super H-TA (Super H with Torque Amplifier), Super HD (Super H Diesel), and F-16 tractors. IH Farmall Red became the standard Farmall tractor color after 1936, and was used through the 1970s. Large competitors such as Deere and Caterpillar lagged at least two years behind IH in offering direct-start diesel products.

By 1973, IH had officially dropped the 'Farmall' name from its new tractor models, ending an era that began with the first Farmall Regular back in 1924. Designed for small-to-medium size American farms, IH's new machines offered a wider variety of capabilities, engines, and equipment options. The Letter series tractors were updated to the Super series beginning in 1947 with the Super A, 1951 for the Super C, 1952 for the Super M and 1953 for the Super H, the B and BN models having been dropped from production and replaced with the C in 1948, which combined the attributes of both models into one tractor, while moving the operator position on top of the tractor in a more traditional layout like the H and M. Though the "Super series" received improvements, these tractors largely followed the design of their predecessors, and like them, were built to last. Descriptions of tractors as "general-purpose" and "all-purpose" had been used loosely and interchangeably in the teens and early twenties; but a true all-purpose tractor would be one that not only brought power to ploughing, harrowing, and belt work but also obviated the horse team entirely. Overall, the Farmall 'letter' series, well built and affordable, became not only a defining product line in IH history, but an iconic symbol of the prototypical American small-farm tractor.

IH, who wanted to be the first big-power tractor manufacturer, had inexplicably failed to substantially enlarge and re-engineer critical drive components on the new six-cylinder tractors. [15] The tractors' final drives, which were essentially made up of unaltered Letter Series components, (the 460 carried over from the model H, the 560 did the same from the model M), failed rapidly under the stress of the more powerful 60 series tractor engines. The 'B' was the same as the 'A' with the exceptions that it used a narrow, tricycle type front end, and the engine/driveline were placed along the centerline of the tractor. [4] Many farmers were content (and could afford) to keep one or two horses or mules around to do miscellaneous light work (such as cultivating). Farmall was a model name and later a brand name for tractors manufactured by the American company International Harvester (IH). This page was last edited on 5 January 2021, at 16:27. Some examples include: The International 544 and 656 Row-Crop tractors were a bit of an anomaly until International dropped the Farmall brand, in that they combined some of the customary features of a Farmall (such as an adjustable wheel width) with a utility tractor. Although the TA was appreciated on the Farmalls, IH also offered the TAs on the "Standard", "Utility", and "Industrial" tractor lines as well. The Farmall A, B, and C used a sliding-gear four-speed transmission, while the larger, more powerful Farmall H and M were fitted with a five-speed transmission. Its design was excellent in many respects, including design for manufacturability and the low cost that it allowed. The streamlined exterior of the earlier tractors was replaced by straighter, more angular lines, updating the look and requiring less-complicated equipment to manufacture.
