It is neither a 1700 (2 cyl.) or a 1900 (I & T manual list 3 cyl.) It does bear a close resemblance to my 1700 so probably made by Shibura. If Ford/NH does not list a 2020 model then parts will be problematic at best.
JC-Jetro, some of the gray tractors have multiple selection for PTO speed. Maybe for the tillers used on them by the rice farmers. I had a made-for-America Kubota with two speeds.
I, too, would like to have seen it before the spruce-up. I'm going to drop it since it's about 60 miles away. It would be counter-productive to drive there just to tell him he's a sham if it turns out that way.
my yanmar has a 3 spd pto.. 540, 768, 1000
