Hello from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan

Postby Camp3 » Sun May 08, 2022 5:17 pm

Hello, I am looking forward to getting my dads 1964 Farmall Cub running this spring so I can cut the ditch and my logging roads with the flail mower. It has carb issues and seems to run at high speed. I am thinking there is a carb issue or the governor needs some help.
He has a Mott flail mower and a center mount blade that I have to find at the edge of a field in some weeds. Once I get that all tuned up I intend to enjoy using this tractor frequently.

I could not say tractor when I was 2 years old so I called it Err Err.

I loved this tractor then and I still love it now.

Welcome to the Forum, Erik!

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

Now that you’ve logged your 2nd post on the Forum, 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.

There are a lot of good threads dealing with Cub repair and maintenance in the How To Forum. Located here: http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=11

We’d encourage you to take the Safety Test located in the Safety Forum: http://farmallcub.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=68084 Just a word about mowing embankments. The Cub was not designed for a steep grade, so be very careful when attempted to mow or drive along an incline/decline.

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

Remember:
  • Pictures are limited to 500 KB file size. Use an image reducer app or program to downsize pics.
  • 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.

:tractor:

We'd encourage you to post a new thread over in the Introduce Yourself forum and tell us a little more about yourself--give everyone a chance to give you a proper welcome.
