Which is a problem when on slopes etc. I came across photo/video clip of a Fiat crawler where the chains ar...

Service Manual for John Deere Lanz 440 Ag Crawler 3 pt
Hi Lavoy,
Many thanks for your reply. Could you refer me to websites that I could order the 440 Service manual from?
regards

It is a 3 cylinder 4 stroke naturally Diesel Perkins P 152, commonly used in the Massey Ferguson 35's , I think Ford tractors of the same era.
