Beautiful restoration job looks as if it just came out of the showroom. Perhaps the carburettor needs adjusting to lessen the misfire. 1--1/2 turns for petrol on starting. 2--1/2 turns on kerosene when warmed up then fine adjustments.
Did a nice job on that old tractor if I do say so myself looks a lot better than them damn Rusty ones congratulations on a job well done hook up the hay wagon we're going for a ride Hee Haw
Very nice. However do not put your thumb around the starting handle, ie do not have the handle running between the thumb and index finger. If the engine backfires, it will quite likely break your thumb and possible your arm as well. You need to be prepared to allow the handle to kick back from your grip, so have your thumb beside the index finger so that if it kicks, it can leave your grip without taking your thumb with it. This appears to now be a common mistake when using the hand start method today, the proper way has not been taught to current operators. Also it is best to only pull up on the handle when starting as should the enging backfire on the down push, this could be nasty as your arm could be hit by the handle rotating in the wrong direction. If it backfires on the up pull, at least you are already pulling your arm out of the way. Lovely restoration.
Nothing is gonna happen. Think about farmers who used these machines in its glorious times. Farmers never complain or never get scared from getting hurt.
Ryan. your advice is good for old gasoline engined cars. But not for the Fordson tractor. These have a special magneto that automatically retards the spark when RPM is below a certain amount. If the timing is such that the engine runs ok and has anything like normal power, the timing is then such that kick back is impossible at the speed at which a human can crank it. Fordsons are somewhat hard to start. When it is cold, you often need to vigorously crank the engine several continuous turns so that it draws enough air (and therefore fuel) through the water-bath air cleaner to fire - as seen in this video. Also, they are low revving (operating beyond 1100 RPM is not permitted) and have a far heavier flywheel than a car engine. This means 2 things - it can take a couple of turns to build up a good cranking speed, and it cannot immediately turn backwards with much speed like a car engine readily can. On old car engines, you need to turn the engine over one full turn, then a quick pull up and they'll fire.
Der is aber schön restauriert! Er ist ein Benziner. Tadelloser Traktor, …Der Zeit voraus. Geht heute noch. Ein feldgerät wegen der eisenraeder. Konvektionskuehlung.

Beautiful tractor! Flatheads forever!!!
Great restoration,well done.
Simply beautiful
You might need a new lift after that. Just beautiful to see one run.
Very nice! 👍🏻
Beautiful! :)
Thank you! It is :-)
That is a work of art. I have a 1941 Ford 9N that is also a work of art. Do the wheels damage the concrete?
Sweet restoration
