Found an old international grain drill. Front of operating manual book says Int 10 drill. On inside cover says it's 13x7 drill. Outside of drill is rusted but not real bad, none on inside. It is a hand lift model. I can't figure out how to raise the drills. And how do you engage and disengage them. I see the adjusting crank and know it sets the pressure on the drills themselves but I dont see how to raise them. I know there is a way. But not too familiar with this piece of equipment. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

its a fairly decent drill and will do you well. but becuase of its age I wouldnt want to road it home that far. if something is froze up, you'll surely break it and anyway roading will throw a new one off of adjustment, dont know what it would do to an old one. Good luck

In order to raise the drill, you have to be rolling. You have to pull the rope attached to the clutch and then let go right away (if you hold on too long, you drop it right back into the ground). The drill should start to plant when it is lowered. My drill has two cluches, one for each half of the drill.

Thanks,looked like There was remnant of rope attached to the clutch. To lower it again what do you do, Pull rope again? What shoild my first step be? Try to get everything loosened up unfroze. Also it is in need of one tire. My aim is to attempt to change tire free some parts up and pull it home which is about 8- 9 miles away. Does that sound like right idea? Are these good drills? Thanks for your help...

That's right, pull the rope again to drop the drill. I'd make sure everything will turn by hand before I dropped it. You can do a lot of damage real fast if something is seized.
