Subject: RE: Checking tractor hours



Depends on the vintage of the tractor and who serviced it. There might be some dealer shop history of hours that may disagree with the tachometer hour meter because the tachometer has been run back or replaced. Otherwise you have to "examine the horse's teeth." Look at wear parts like steering wheel, pedals, seat, belts, pulleys, drawbar hitch pin holes, tires, and inside rod and main bearing wear. None of these will give precise hours, but they can show when a tachometer is very far off.
