1510 Ford

QUESTION: I want to buy some simple implements
ie. tandem disk lister (plow) planter

I have access to implement dealers near by. What descriptions, dimensions, etc. are correct when talking implements for a 1510? To farm a 7 acre garden, am I thinking the right stuff? What's the right price for the used implements?

This is not too far different from an 8N.

I have an 8N and it pulls a 2 bottom 14 inch moldboard plow. If your soil is not hard with a lot of rocks and clay, this should work.

I pull a 7 foot tandem disk but 6 might be more appropriate.

I have an old 2 row covington planter and cultivator I use but it I were out looking and not going to do an awful lot of acreage, I might have gone the one row route. Your tractor would have handled a 2 row though without trouble.

Used prices vary greatly but you should be able to find all for 2-300 price range each around these parts.

A real of thunb on the plow is 15 HP per each 16 bottom plow I am told.

On the disk, look for one with sealed bearings, ie no grease fittings if you can. If you go the other route, make sure you own a grease gun and use it with 3-4 squirts before each use.

The lift category is generally tied to the tractor HP. I also have a 53 HP Massey and it has either or balls, I OR II.

I have nver seen any make of tractor in your HP range that had a cat II.
