john deere walking tractor

Before you start searching for a vintage or any kind of pre-owned tractor for your place, there are some factors you'll want to remember. First of all, don't get carried away from nostalgia. Purchasing and rebuilding an antique tractor can be a delightful pleasing hobby to engage in. But it can also become a costly one.

Before beginning to hunt for your tractor, be sure that you know what you really want. This may seem too basic, however it is easy to become side tracked and acquire something which you did not start out to purchase. Only once you are able to create a detailed listing of the requirements should you start the search. Don't forget to include your technical and performance needs in your listing. Unless you understand exactly what you're searching for, how are you going to determine where and how to look?

If you are sincerely hunting for an antique tractor, be careful and not permit enthusiasm get the best of you. If you do, you could well be in difficulty before beginning your project. Rebuilding an antique tractor or other old farm implement is gratifying. However it is not an overnight project and it might become costly quite rapidly. Components for a lot of aged tractors are obtainable however some are hard to locate and can be on the spendy side. Factory original tires may be impossible to locate and reproduction tires may cost more than the tractor. You may discover that rather than buying a project tractor, it would be just as satisfying to purchase one which somebody else has already put all of the time, effort and expense into. Chances are good that you could buy it for less money than the owner put into it, to say nothing of all of his labor.

Test the tractor before you get it. Is it simple to get started and look, solid and feel right? Are the tires in good shape? Is there any hydraulic leakage apparent? Do you detect any missing components or accessories? Be certain and give equally close an examination to any attachments. Finally, make certain that an antique tractor truly meets the needs of the task you want it for. It is tough to go wrong with an antique tractor such as a John Deere if you shop carefully.

So what model is this?

It uses legs instead of wheels as not to compact the soil on tree farms. Soil compaction spells bad growth or no growth for most any plants. So thats why its slow and has no wheels. You wouldn’t want heavy tire tracks through your tree farm would you?

The timberjack produced this modell in finland tampere, the prototypes were made in 91-94 by lokomo, and timberjack maked it 10 or 20 in 2004(?) and canceled “kävelevä moto”project. i belive them all are in finland or in other countries. this modell has never maded under john deere forestry license.

JOJOTTAJA12334 @ 2:13 pm #

The production stopped becouse the timberjack didnt find any way to build that another machine (which name ive have forgot but it is in finnish “metsäajokone”) to make it walk without fall down with load.

JOJOTTAJA12334 @ 2:24 pm #

I hope you understand my english becous im from finland. :) btw: that harvester is missing its boom and harvester head.
