louie figone Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 This was a while back building this reservior. The TD9 is pulling a 4 yard Bucyrus Erie can, it was converted from cable to hydraulic. Hope the pictures attach, first time to try this.

poor farmer/logger Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Nice pics. Looks like it was pretty dry when you were doing that. Couldn't imagine even attempting to do that around here now. Everything would be sunk after the first couple of feet. Probably fill up before you could even get back out again.lol..

ianoz Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Nice Tractors Looks like the TD9B handles the scoop OK . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john@walker-plant.co.uk Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Really nice pictures and looks the correct shade of yellow (makes a change!). I bet you had great satisfaction working with those machines - I presume you restored them as well. Nice fleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louie figone Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 The 6 I have owned since new, 1969, the 9 I bought in 1982, it is a 1963, I did the brakes, steering clutches and engine clutch on the 9. I did replace the undercarriage on the 6 in 1984, our ground is decomposed granite, it is very abrasive on the undercarriage. Both tractors were painted in 1984. Both are agricultural versions and used on a working farm for discing, plowing, ripping, road building/repair. The TD6 has a three point and works an 80 inch Howard rotovator. Both tractors have pto's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drott-150 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Great pics, looks totally classic, like something right out of an old IH brochure. Even the vehicles up on the hill look like they're from the 60's. How long ago were these pics taken again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louie figone Posted February 20, 2013 Author Share Posted February 20, 2013 Those pictures were taken in the mid to late '80's. One of the pickups is a '72 K20, the other is a '86 F250. Here are some more pictures of the TD6 with a 80" Howard Rotovator, these were taken in the late '90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
