Lord Ferguson Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Now I've let you down really buddy... - I can only find one mention of the plough in my books (well.. plenty of mentions... but not many pics)... so this is all I can find for you... I hope it shows the part you are looking for mate... As I have failed you I would suggest the Freiend of Ferguson Heritage website... they have a great for sale/wanted board that is free to post on... that's where I got my Yellow 35x informatrion from... some really nice jhelpful people on there... Anyway.. here you go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ferguson Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 Oh yeah.. I'd not noticed them... for pulling just one furrow as well :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 i wouldn't have thought that thye would give much extra grip, they look pretty flat i have to say, why would you plough with a single furrow butterfly anyway, would be beter suited to competitions wouldn't it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 you should try and get hold of something like that for regan at some point mart, slowly add to the collection of old grey fergy stuff to match her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archbarch Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 my mates dad had an auto turnover massey plough 1,2 and 3 furrow as i understand it they never turned over when they supposed to and for some reason the points were made of cast and kept breaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogreengelb Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Ive used one of them to plough with on a dexta right pigs ear it was to.If I remember right to trip it you connected a short chain onto the towing hitch so when you lifted it out the chain went tight thus operating the trip mechanism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
