Hello IH guys - I have taken some figures down on
this Super M I have, and will pass it on to you for more info hopefully.
The serial # tag on left side of clutch housingsays: model SM serial # F - 12558 ADJ maximum 1600 RPM idle speed
What does the above mean? Where built?
On right side of tractor body between brake
pedals and belt pulley is digits 7-2-X kindof stamped in raised lettering.
Tractor has disc brakes.Left rear axle housing has 7-2-X on it.
Right rear axle housing is 5-28-X on it.
Left wheel has 1 and 1/8 inch wheel bolts.Right wheel has 1 inch wheel bolts. These bolts tighten cast wheels to the axle itself. These are the bolt head size.
Between the light post throttle support, and the
seat, are the digits 221 W ? imbedded in the
floor. These look like recessed numbers, not
raised, and you read this by facing rear oftractor.
Tractor has the little foot lever starter rod.
Tractor has 4 bolt seat, flip back. With shockand big spring.
The hydraulic? pump is mounted in front of belt
pulley housing...a hose from it goes to bottom
side of tractor body below the belt pulley, right
side. This is behind the clutch housing.
Power steering pump on top left side of engine,
generator on opposite right side, with a narrow
belt connecting the 2 with fan pulley. All thisunder the hood.
I am hoping these are the "casting numbers"
someone mentioned that may be needed for some
identification? Other numbers on tractor I
recognize as part numbers, so let me know if
there are spots to check for more of the othernumbers, if needed.
I hope this is a little more thorough, other than
sending you some closeup shots of the tractor. I
can do this later with our digital camera, if I
get a chance, and get them on the computer tosend.
Can you let me know more about this tractor by
what I have sent you? Thanks for your time. It
needs a few things to get it more complete, and
solid, grill is bent a little. The battery is in
a "slide out" metal tray box under the gas tank.
Wiring looks orig. and bare in spots, I have
taped. Engine number I did not try to see, can
do later. It has a little fuel tank, plus the
main one. Runs smooth, seems strong, gears quiet
in all speeds. Oil filter can looks tall, isthis a special filter for it?
Sorry this is long.....what can you tell me about
this Super M? Thank you guys for so very much,
I love this old thing..... .if it is a '53, its
gonna be 50 years old soon !!! Geeeesss...sameyear as my class re-union too !!
