2019 Tolland County 4H Lawn & Garden Tractor Pull

Postby Peter Person » Sat Aug 10, 2019 9:26 pm

...in the books!
Started out with 9 tractors and gradually whittled it down to two tractors with 5,000lbs on the sled. One full pull of 48” for Hannah and one pull of 44” for Jack.
Game over, 1st place claimed....not so fast!
Short discussion with Hannah, put all the weights on...8,600lbs :shock:
Add weight to the front rack, and see what happens.
Throttle up, release the clutch, tires squat, and the tractor starts crawling. At 32” the shifter pops loose, reset, but no go...too much resistance from the sled buried in the ballfield clay mix pulling pad.
Done, with a new record pull of 8,600lbs.
20hp Onan 2cyl. Double belt drive. Cub LoBoy Finals.

Congrats Hannah. :thumbsup:
...and a shoutout to Aron for keeping her on track and providing guidance and skill on the repower and clutch design.

Scot,
What Hannah and Aron have done to this tractor is way above my pay-grade. I've got no skin in this machine.
It's come a long way since 2010;
