1947 H Magneto

I have this 47 H that I am just getting to know better. There are a few things different about her.
1. SN tag says X1A = Gas and low gears. I get that
2. Has an overdrive acuated by a lever on the left side. I think this is a Hesiler or something like that. How would I know?
3. Appears to have disk brakes, or at least a old time Farmall friend says it does. Haven't pulled the dust cover. How would I tell?
4. Seems to have a "Case" magneto, at least that is what it says on the MAG. Anyone ever hear of this setup?
5. Has a gear, about 6 inches, where the belt pully attaches?

I bought it from a working farmer who got it a few years ago from a relative.

It starts and runs very well.

Any comments appreciated. ... Norm43
 
2. M&W -- 4 more gears with speeds between 4th and 5th (two ranges in 1-4). Are you sure that is not to stop the tractor without stopping the PTO -- I guess the farmer knows.

3. Cover for band brakes is stamped metal, for Lambert disk brakes, cast iron held on by 3 bolts.

4. Whatever fits.

5. Yes.
 
Thanks for your info ... I'm out west so it may also be for a single row beet puller. Same concept but nice to know it is authenic so I will just leave it there. Makes this tractor just a little different.
