What model plow?

Dennis K (WA) · May 16, 2012

Trying to figure out what model 2 bottom plow was used on a Farmall C.
Was it raised by a rockshaft behind the seat?
I have an opportunity to pick up a plow but want to make sure I'm getting all that is required to hook it up and that it is actually the right one.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Any pics?
Dennis

there was a device mounted behind the seat connected to the rock shaft. I think the 2 bottoms where for super c"s the c that I had, came with 2 plows one for each side. I don't know what you call this but you only used one at a time.

Make sure you get all the parts as it does have a rockshaft that bolts to the axle housings and anothere one bolting to the bell housing . One rockshaft raises and lowers the plow and the other sets the tilt for depth . A chain on the rockshaft raises and lowers the plow in and out of the ground. You will need to set furrow wheel so it runs in the furrow and the front bottom cuts the correct width of the soil.

Thanks for your input guys. I'm on my way out tonight to get it. I looked at it last night but was not completely sure of what all was involved. I have committed to it but want to be sure to get it all. Without a model # I can't seem to identify it on caseih parts.
The bracketry at the bell housing/torque tube is there but not sure right now about the rockshaft behind the seat.
Not much value if not complete.
Gene, did they all have a furrow wheel or was it optional? I don't think it has one attached but could be in the weeds.
Thanks again

The C295 and the C295A were both mounted plows for the Farmall C. Both plows used the cultivator lift or rock shaft to lift them with brackets that mount to the axles and a rod connecting the lift arm to the cultivator lift, a single lift arm on the right rear does the lifting with a chain attached to the plow.
The C295 uses one side of the cultivator lift to lift the plow and the other side of the cultivator lift to level the plow side to side.

The C295A uses one side of the cultivator lift to raise and the other side of the cultivator lift to level the plow front to back. The C295A uses a hand crank mounted to the right headlight pipe that levels the plow side to side.

The mounting brackets to the torque tube are slightly different for the two plows but I'm pretty sure the rear lift brackets & arm are the same.

I have one of each model but only one Farmall C. Used the C295A last year at a couple of plow days and hope to try out the C295 this year. They are great little plows and a lot of fun to use. I think there are some pics in the implement photos on this site.

The axel brackets are the most likely item to be missing. And yes there was a tail wheel. If I remember correctly you set the furrow wheel on the tractor in to within 2-inches of the cast axel if the wheels are standard set on the center cast turned out. Seems like it was 3 1/2" on the left wheel to be able to look down the hood over the radiator cap and follow the previous track.

Thanks for all the information.
2+2, good info on 295. I did find that model on caseih parts and looks very similar. I also found on IH History site a C194 which also looks like it. Picture of the C194 looks like brackets bolt to a couple bosses on the side of the differential case instead of the axles. Could be predecessor to the 295.
I didn't bring the plow home because none of the apparatus behind the seat is there, but I may change my mind and then fab up what is needed to make it function.
Thanks again
Dennis
