Farmall B Operator's Manual

mwilke · Jul 22, 2013

Can someone tell me the physical size of an original B operators manual? I got one from a seller off Ebay and it was 5 x 8.5. Some of the numbers are so small they are not legible. It looks to be a reduced size original.

Thanks

Sounds small to me. Mine is down in the shop, if I have time today I'll look at it and measure it for you.

My old 1939 original 'H' operators manual is 6 1/2 x 9 1/2, and the numbers on the engravings / sketches is readible, they are 1/16" tall, but if it was any smaller the numbers would not be.

That's just ebay. Binder books dot com has identical digital copies of the original manuals, including the cover. Nothing removed, nothing added.

I had to go and check my colection of old manuals and I have an orginal owner's manual for a Farmall A & AV that measures 6 x 9 inches. On the back cover it's dated 6-2-47. I also have a owners manual for a Farmall H that's 6 x 9 inches, dated 10-27-44. I also have an orginal Farmall M owner manual that's 6 x 9 inches, dated 2-11-44. They were made this size at one time. Hope this helps you

Thanks to all who answered. I have a couple of old H manuals that are smaller. I should have known better and I forgot about Binder or Jensales books.
