I havent done a hayride for 50 years but i HAVE DONE SOME PARADES and I always recommend starting in 2nd or 3rd shifting to 4th. Less jerky starts and easier to keep up. 1st gear is a waste as it is strictly for power. When I teach my grandchildren to drive the M I always start them in 2nd and tell them to slip the clutch,. Also for shifting on the go, I can do it from 4th to 5th very well but below that I grind a small amount. Be sure to pause in neutral for a short time. The speeds on the H are 1, 2 5/8 mph, 2, 3 mph, 3, 41/4 mph 4,,5 3/8 5, 15 5/8 with 10-38 tires. Larger tires will increase the speed proportionally. My M does 18.0 with 15.5 tires but book calls for 15 5/8 with 12.8 tires.

Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
