Colt Case Ingersoll Garden Tractors

I like the box on the back.
You'll have to get use to using the retard position on the travel lever. It works best at higher RPM.
Try wiggling the travel lever a little when it won't it won't crank. Might be the neutral safety switch.

I didn’t even think about the safety switch. I’ll have to have a look at it.

The neutral safety switch can build up a little corrosion from not being used . If not worn to bad a quick clean is all they need .

I needed to move the tractor out of the way for another project today. Son wanted to be the test pilot. He drove around for a little while learning the controls. We changed the engine and hydraulic oils too. This is the reaction I was hoping for! He says he wants to do the snow plowing this winter!

@thebuildist I looked back through your thread on building your loader and counter weight. You’ve given me inspiration to do something similar for this tractor for traction when plowing. I also want to build a receiver to fit the sleeve adapter to attach a hitch to move the trailer and maybe some implements for the other tractors. I think it would handy. Hopefully I’ll get some time to try a little fabrication!

Awesome!@JSinMO the smile says it all. Good way to start into running tractors, just the right size.
A little weight on the back and chains and you will have a nice snow moving machine.

Indeed, your son will have fun with this machine!

Awesome! Like Tim says, smile says it all. Remember driving our 155 when I was his age

Wheel weights (and if possible chains) make a huge difference pushing snow.

Here's a quick video I took pushing snow last winter.

Not yet , not ready yet .

Thanks for the video @Chad !

I have to agree with Dave, not ready for winter.
You guys can keep it up north as long as you like, in fact you can keep it all together! Just send down 1 or 2 snows for us to plow.
