I am certainly not an expert on these 9 speeds made by Heisler and M&W but from what I have seen the Heisler is something that from outward appearances appears to be something engineered to the tractor and model. I have seen many notations on the M&W ones with a note "cable is broken". The Heisler as you can see from your tractor is made from cast and machined components with a metal rod for linkage. Most of the M&W ones use a cable like a choke or throttle cable on a small lawnmower which enters the transmission between two castings by a gasket. I have read there are some M&W ones which use linkage somewhat like the Heisler but have never seen one. I was told by the original owner of the M I bought in Iowa that the main reason they were used was due to the speed needed for a rotary hoe which was around 7 MPH and none of the gears on the factory M's and H's would pull one at that speed. My uncle who farmed corn in Iowa had one on a M and he used it to pull full wagon loads of picked corn to the storage areas on the county roads using the hi-range 4th which ran around 12 MPH with a lot of torque. Hope this helps and enjoy your H tractor as few will be seen with a Heisler 9 speed, Hal.
