DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS

Group 5 DESCRIPTION

10-5-1

The John Deere Model "B" Tractor is a general-purpose tractor with sufficient power to pull two H­inch plow bottoms or the equivalent. With six forward speeds, one reverse speed, power take-off and belt pulley, this tractor adapts itself to a wide variety of power requirements on medium-sized farms. When equipped with single front wheel or adjustable wide front axle, the Model "B" meets the exacting needs of specialty crops of all kinds.

Serial Numbers. Each tractor bears a serial number located on the main case just under the mag­neto (Figure 10-5-1). Development of the so-called "styled" tractor was completed with Serial No. B96000. From that number to Serial No. B201000, only minor changes were made in the tractor specifications or design.

Beginning with Serial No. B201000, the tractor was modified to provide a choice of all-fuel or gasoline­burning engines, greater power, increased driver comfort, improved crankcase ventilation, a stronger frame and other improvements. The instructions contained in this Manual cover all tractors with serial numbers above B96000. Wherever maintenance procedures are different because of the changes made in tractors above B201000, both procedures are given.

The air cleaner is the lung of the tractor. No tractor will perform for very long with a dirty or poorly-serviced air cleaner. As a Serviceman, point out to the operator the importance of this part and the value of regular service to it. As a technician who prides himself in perfect jobs, check the air cleaner before any tractor leaves your shop and service if necessary.

10. AIR CLEAN­ER SERVICE (All "B" Trac-tOTS). ~.

The air cleaner will normally be serviced after every 30 hours of operation but under se­vere dust conditions more frequent servicing may be necessary. The operator should never allow the oil to become

too thick to flow freely; nor to allow more than 1/2-inch dirt to collect in the cup.

When servicing the air cleaner, remove oil cup, empty oil, and scrape out dirt. Wash out cup with a non-inflammable cleaning solvent. Refill the inner and outer cups to indicated level with same grade oil as used in the engine crankcase for pre­vailing temperature conditions. Inspect bottom screen of cleaner body and remove any accumu­lation of chaff and dirt. Replace oil cup securely.
