I recently bought an international 140 that I hope to use for 3 row vegetable cultivation. This is my first tractor, and will be used for a long time to cultivate and/or to plant with planet juniors, which I do not own yet. The tractor has two arms that mount toward the front and middle of the machine, and meet just under the oil pan. They connect from opposite sides. There is then a large donut looking slot that I'm guessing you'd mount perhaps one round standard too, or perhaps a mower? The tractor I bought is yellow, and I've been told it was initially set up for mowing, but the farmer I bought it from did cultivate with it, but probably cobbled something together to make it work. I'm too young of a farmer to make that happen without some tips. The 140's I've seen set up with cultivators seem to have 2 points to which the toolbar is mounted, one just about behind each of the front wheels, or in line with the rockshafts. I can see where some of this additional hardware would mount. I want to set mine up this way. What I don't know is what to call everything I need, so I know how to purchase it, or even exactly where to get hardware from. I've been told market farm implement has lots of things like this, but if you don't know what you're talking about, they don't really have the time to walk you through it. I would guess that to be true for most dealers in used wares. Ideally, I'd like to run a 3 row beet knive cultivator, or perhaps torsion, duck foot, or spring hoe cultivator, 3 rows each with 15" between rows, all of which I have some parts for. The tractor has been set up as 3 pt too, and I do have a track scratcher set up for it. Any tips? Is there a good owner's manual I can buy for it that would walk me through some of this? The one I bought does not get into the touch control system very well, nor does it cover any of these components very effectively. I can try to get pictures, but haven't had any luck finding my camera and my phone won't upload pics.

Today's Featured Article - Pitfalls of Tractor Engine Rebuilds - by Chris Pratt. The first pop after you have put the machine together with your own hands is exciting and pleasing. The whole experience can be marred if one moves too fast and makes too many assumptions that they can just use "as is" some parts they should be closely scrutinizing and possibly attended to. In such cases, rework makes what could have been a fun project turn into an irritant or even a nightmare. Minor Irritants To give you an example of an minor but irritating proble
