Stayner, Ontario, Simcoe County
Allis was ahead of the other manufactures including first tractor to have spin out power shift rear wheels on the WD in 1948 plus a wet clutch to stop the tractor and allow the pto to keep operating, first tractor with a turbo D19 -diesel in 1961,The competion copied the 8000 series cab (introduced in 1982)- these cabs were both roomy , quiet and easy to get in and out off.Gleaner introduced electric over hyd for the controls in the M and L combine in 1975 again ahead of the competion.Poor management decisions crippled the company in 1985.
