The early models used a long linkage to engage and disengage the range lever. You had to dismount to change the gears by hand on the front unit. Then you used the linkage to engage the range. The later models engaged the gears pneumatically on the front unit. That’s the large looped tube you can see running between the units.
Great video showing how it's done 💪👍
Speed ploughing! Epic. 😊
The efficiency in this configuration is unbelievable.
Interesting. Thanks
That solves the notoriously hard to steer Fordson major
How did they synchronized the gearboxes
nice to see a pair of sixes
How were the gears selected on the front unit?

County Tractors had one similar, in fact I thought it was one......
County's was ridged frame tractors.
Were there any of these with two 6 cyl engines, or were they all two x 4cyl diesels?
