And just where is he supposed to find a usable 10' disk? Around here most of those have already gone to scrap! 2 reason the M is cheap. It's too big for most guys who can only have one old tractor to store and too small for many farmers today. I know, I know, some people still use them. But here the small guys are running 700 or so acres. Their grain augers require tractors in the 70 or bigger HP range. So implements for a 40-50 HP tractor that are not 3 point went to scrap years ago. Heck last couple of mechanical ground lift plows I've seen at auction here, 3-14's were in really poor condition sold in the 650 price range.

For the OP: Research a rod weeder, smallest one you can find in your local area. See what the HP requirements are for your soil conditions. I don't know but I suspect that you will have trouble finding one small enough for an M in the 40-50 HP range.

I would look at find the weeder first then match it too a tractor.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
