IH 340 - discuss it here ?
Posted: Sun Jul 07, 2013 6:48 pm
I will be getting a IH 340 soon. Is this the proper forum section to discuss a 340?
It belongs to my uncle who used it on his dairy farm and then to mow a small field once he retired. I have not seen this tractor yet but he said it has a loader, front blade, brush hog mower and a scoop for the 3pt hitch, and it is yellow... that is about all I know right now. I'll be going to see it and try to get it started on Wednesday this week.
I have started looking up what a 340 is and found that the Preventive Maintenance Manual for the 140, 240 and 340 is also for the Cub and Cub loboy which I am familiar with. That manual mentions the Farmall 340, the IH 340 Utility and IH 340 Industrial tractors. Are the three version all that different?
Under Edit:
Looking at the Case online parts system, I found a picture of the 340 and 340 Utility. The Utility tractor has the wide front end instead of the tricycle style front end.
