New Tractor Owner - WINTERIZING questions / procedures.

Posted by duckkilla on December 02, 2013 at 10:26:20 from (66.128.106.2):

Hi all,

I'm a first time tractor owner, and I want to make sure that I do whatever needs to be done to make sure that my new (OLD) purchase makes it through the FREEZING Missouri winters. I recently purchased a 1961 Ford 861. This is my first tractor ever, and I'm definitely still learning how to take care of it. It is going to be stored in an open sided pole barn. Covered, but not insulated. What things do I need to do / check to make sure it makes it through the single digit temps that we quite often get?

Thanks in advance.

Steve
