Dr. Bert, the weight you mentioned was used when the Farmall H was tested at Nebraska and is somewhat heavier than the average user of this tractor would use. The tractor was loaded to get it's maximum drawbar pull in low gear and nearly if not totally eliminate the possibility of slipping the rear wheels thereby bringing the engine to a near stall. For general work the tractor at this weight would be sluggish and clumsy feeling, especially on soft ground and result in wasted fuel. An H being used for general farm work pulling the implements for which it was designed is usually weighted to around 4400-4500 lbs.
