Hello from Powhatan, VA

HI everyone! I have inherited my grandfathers two Farmall Super A's, a '49 and '51...supposedly. They both ran a few years ago but have been sitting for a couple years. They are not locked up, just need some TLC to get them running. I'm looking forward to getting them both running and at least one of them back to my home in VA from their current location in Summerfield, NC. Nice to meet everyone.

Welcome to the FORUM. You'll find answers to most any questions that you may have from the knowledgeable folks here. Now that you have made 2 posts you can access the manuals section at the QUICK LINKS tab, top left corner of this page. Also browse the HOW TO FORUM for helpful information as a lot of the issues are common to Cubs and SA's. I have fond memories of the Old Dominion, spent some time on the pennsulia at Langley in the late 60's and lived at Emporia for a while in the 70's, now a Grandson is in Richmond at the Medical Center completing his MD studies. Good Luck on getting you family tractors.

Welcome to the Forum! Congratulations on inheriting your grandfather's Super A's.

Take some time and read through a few threads to acquaint yourself with the Forum:

As Stan pointed out, now that you’ve logged your 2nd post, you'll have access to the all the PDF Manuals on this site. There’s a few ways to do that:
  • From a desktop or laptop, go to "Quick Links" in the upper left corner of your screen. Hit that and a pull-down appears where you'll find "PDF Manuals".
  • You can also go to “Cub Info” in the upper toolbar, then hit “Rudi’s Manuals”. From there, you can access a variety of information.
  • If you're using a phone, go to the "Links Directory" (second category down the main page). Once in "Links Directory" , scroll down to the second section "Tractor Parts & Manuals" and you'll find them there.

You'll be able to download an Owner's Manual (very strongly recommended) and any service manuals that interest you. Implement Manuals are also available.

We’d encourage you to take the Safety Test located in the Safety Forum: http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=68084

Might also enjoy reading through this thread (even though it’s for a Cub, much can be applied to any tractor just brought home): What to do with a Cub you just brought home

Take some pictures of your tractors and post them, we’d like to see them.

Remember:
• When you have a specific question, start a new thread in the appropriate sub-forum.
• Before posting, use the Preview button before hitting Submit--it'll show you exactly what your post will look like, including pictures.
• When adding your comments to a thread, be sure to look at the date of the last poster. If it’s more than a 6 months old, the posters are probably not going to see it. Consider starting a new thread.

Glad you joined us.
