Minneapolis-Moline UB

The Minneapolis-Moline UB is a row crop tractor built from 1953 to 1955. It's a 2-wheel drive machine with a manual steering system and a 5-speed gear transmission. The UB runs on a gasoline engine made by Minneapolis-Moline, with 4 cylinders lined up in a row. This engine is liquid-cooled and has a displacement of 283.7 cubic inches, which is about average for tractors of its time.

The UB weighs 6,050 pounds, making it a lighter tractor compared to many others. It has agricultural tires, with larger ones in the back for better traction in the fields. The tractor comes with a live PTO that spins at 540 rpm, useful for running various farm tools. It has an open operator station, which means no cab, and uses an electric starter to get the engine going. The UB also features mechanical disc brakes and a category III hitch for attaching implements. These features make it a practical choice for farmers who need a reliable tractor for row crop work.
