weak moment

If I remember correctly there is a compression petcock on the back side of that flywheel, or there abouts. You open the petcock to get it on the compression stroke by turning that flywheel. That's how you start it. Most everything else, Farmall, Allis Challmbers etc, had hand cranks out the front that when they kicked back, broke your wrist. Jezz, somebody wake up moparts. He's a Deere dealer I think. We just built those big red axial flow combines,
And Bob, it's a petcock, not a pet cock.

We had an old John Deere on the farm in the 50's and my dad used to grind corn off the flywheel for the animals. Hooked about a 30' belt to the flywheel and to the corn grinder. A lot of dust and noise. Man....The good old days!

I don't remember telling you what to rub Ken !!!

I'm not a Deere expert, but most belt pulleys were seprate from the fly wheel as you had to throw them in, and out of gear. The one on our Farmall M ran off the PTO lever and you kicked the clutch to engage, or disengage. That Deere has a hand clutch, and I think the used a seprate wider pulley that should mount on the side of the frame.
Bob, studies show 90% of the male population indulges in masturbation, and the remaining 10% are liers.

Don't interupt me dammit..I was talking to Rosy Palm......the Allis Chalmers has a belt pulley on the frame...you have to loosen a lock bolt and pull the pulley out about 3 inches to engage it and then run the PTO...pretty weird deal..
