I am 20 miles NW of Fort Worth and Boy Howdy, have we gotten some snow! We have had snow before, but not like this. It is heavy, wet and slushy all in one. Has been snowing about 4 Hrs., have 7 to 8 inches of accumulation and still falling. I was out driving and the roads are just terrible...

Well I finally gave my tractor a workout this past week, plowing 12.5 acres of pretty tough sod. Soil conditions ranged from clay to sandyloam. Was pulling an old Oliver 16" 3 bottom plow 8" deep. I must say the 5740 handled it very well. I was in low range, 4th gear which is around 4mph and...

Well I gave myself it over twenty hours on this tractor and decided the foot throttle could be a little more convienient to use. This first pic shows the original position of the foot throttle. Although it is hard to tell from the pic, the throttle was out quite a ways from the brake pedal and...

This is a very inexpensive experiment for a bucket level indicator. Had all the pieces except for the 1/4" rod which I procured at the local hardware store for a couple bucks.

Owners manual states that...When PTO selection switch is placed in "AUTO" position, if you press the main clutch pedal or the "hydraulic position control lever" moves up the arranged position during operation, the PTO will not rotate. Any dealers know what the "Arranged" position is? The...

This little beast showed up yesterday..... Had a chance to do a little hogging and some dirt work. So far so good. Is it true that happy tractor drivers get bugs in their teeth?...

Should be a new 5740 with FEL & 7' rotary cutter sitting in the yard next Friday, ready to go to work! Been needing a tractor around here for years and I am pretty excited about finally having one.
