Vehicle History
|
Brand Heritage
|
Brand Heritage:
|
Ford tractor history traces back to Henry Ford's early experiments in the late 1890s, leading to the development and mass production of the Fordson. The legacy continued with iconic models like the 9N, 2N, and 8N, evolving through the Golden Jubilee and the Hundred/Hundred-and-One series, culminating in the models covered by this manual.
|
Henry Ford Tractor Initiative:
|
Henry Ford's deep investment in developing affordable and efficient tractors, starting with the Fordson, laid the groundwork for Ford's long-standing dominance in the agricultural machinery market.
|
Model Evolution
|
Model Evolution Covered:
|
The manual covers a significant period of Ford tractor evolution, from the transition out of the '01 series into the 'Thousand' series (2000, 4000) and subsequent industrial/utility models like the 3000, 3400, 4500, 5000, 5500, and the larger 7000. This era represents significant advancements in engineering and features for Ford tractors.
|
Transition To Thousand Series:
|
The 'Thousand' series (2000, 4000) represented a modernization with restyled grilles and updated features, building upon the successful '01' series, which the manual's covered models directly evolved from.
