I have a 10' INT.grain drill with the hand clutch you pull the rope to raise and lower the drill which I use with a 140. Does anyone still manufacture or make a hand clutch drill anymore? Or have they gone by wayside. Thanks

Avery: If I were looking for parts for that clutch lift, I would keep my eye open for used drills. I'd be willing to bet there are hundreds of drills setting in the back 40, and that clutch will be one of the few good parts remaining. Keep your eye on corn planters as well, some of them may have same clutch. Best way to run one of those these days, is have a couple of complete spares on shop shelf. As others have said; little cleaning, grease, few springs and dogs, they will run forever.

Avery, anything I've seen lately is a hydraulic lift. The old trip drills worked well, I still have a No.10 Mc cormick, got to keep the lift drive oiled well. Mike in Exeter Ontario

No reason for a manufacturer to put on a dog clutch to make a trip lift when the buyer has a cylinder to put on. Today one of those old clutches would be $200 or more to replace a $100 cylinder, and it is hard to get the rope through the cab. And a lot of guys can't think far enough ahead to pull the rope art the right time to get the drill out of the ground to make the rows come out even. You sure can't stop and then lift!

All my drills have trip lifts, as well as the drag plows and the only failure on this 75-year old equipment I have experienced is corroded broken springs. A little grease, a good spring, and they trip every time.
