Massey Harris Pony Tractor Discing the Field

- I decided to get the MH Pony tractor out and connect the MH disc harrow and give the buckwheat field a second tilling.
In this video, I'll show you how implements connect to the Pony and how to set the disc for the result you want. My pony is an "Armstrong" lift version, and frankly, it works well and isn't difficult to use.
Pony's have a Continental N62 engine, 62ci, about 12HP, 10.5 at the drawbar with a three speed transmission. Working gears are 1 and 2 for sure, 3rd for going places (slowly).
We had a 1947 Pony. MIT was the test bed used in the manufacturing plant in Brantford, Ontario 🇨🇦. Our machine came with wheel weights, a front mounted blade, belly mounted cycle mower and a set of discs. The rear wheels even had chains. We had much newer tractors, but the Pony was great for pushing snow in the winters.
I'd like a blade for mine for the same usage!
Don't know how/why I missed this ;) Beautiful tractor🙂. Oh the days of the semi-mounted disc. Quite a find to have the working pair!
I have a soft spot for these Pony Tractors, they're fun to mess around with. 🙂
Working for a massey dealer for last 35 years here in NZ seen a lot of tractors tip and after THE mass called DOA all were no roll bar
i have an pony 812 from 1957
Nice! They are fun little tractors.
Buckwheat for the beehives, huh!
You bet, they were all over that stuff in the mornings. Buckwheat produces nectar in the cooler hours and shuts down in the afternoon. Tens of thousands of bees in the morning, none at noon.
Is the Armstrong lift lever for plow hard to raise and lower? Thinking about getting a Pony
It really isn’t too difficult there’s a lot of leverage and you can adjust the helper springs as well. Hard to describe the effort required. They are neat little tractors.
It Says Pony, but it really a Workhorse. ; - )
Hehe, yes they are. They do a lot with 12 HP!
This rig any good for log hauling in the woods?
I would say that it depends on the size of logs you want to drag! If you are skidding them, it won;'t take a very large log, if you are pulling firewood in a trailer, it would haul a decent amount, but be mindful these don't weigh much and the barkes need to be in good working order. If you are buying one for that purpose, I'd take a hard look at a 9 or 2N Ford, cheaper, heavier and twice the HP.
@@froghairfarm great info thanks
ROLL OVER BAR IS A MUST BROTHER or the undertaker will get you
Settle mate! He is working vege gardens not logging mountains. He knows what he’s doing.
