Not a 140, but it's older brother, an "A". Great little tractors in the garden. mine pulls a single 16" bottom, and pulls a 6' pull type disc with ease.

If the implements aren't Fast Hitch, it may take a bit to hook them up. If it is Fast Hitch, quick and simple hookup.

That's what they were built and designed for, bit on a larger scale for small truck patch farms. Still many being used today for that, and cultivating tobacco in KY.

I was raised up on a Super A and later we had a 140. The Super A had a Super C kit put in the motor to increase power. Nice clean Super A's and 140's are very desirable tractors around here in NC for people wanting a garden tractor. We used ours mostly to cultivate and pull a bar rake for haying. Very dependable.

A 140 is a great small farm tractor. Mine will pull 2-14 plow although it can bog down in heavy soil. A double 12" or single 16" is no problem. I have converted mine to a 3 point hitch and pull a 7'6" disk. Good luck.
