<p>I would think the wheels under the tractor are more of a gauge
wheel for the front bottoms, and the tail wheel is set for the
rear depth. Much like a trailed plow. The tractor did not have
any down pressure. <br>

<div dir="ltr">OK, I'll ask... how can wheels under the tractor
perform draft control? Draft control maintains constant depth
as soil (and therefore draft) conditions vary... right? A draft
control system needs to literally sense draft, which wheels
riding along under the tractor can't do. Or am I missing
something?

January/February 2015 Issue of Antique Power has an article
called "TEXAS SAND IN HIAWATHA". James Gall of Hiawatha Kansas
was interviewed about his 1937 Farmall F-12. He has an F-12 he
purchased from an auction with hydraulic lift. It is shown
with a mounted plow. The mounted plow lift has wheels under
the tractor that appear to perform the same function as 3
point hitch draft control. That is they regulate the depth of
the plow into the ground. From the side the tractor appears to
be similar to a three point hitch tractor.<br>
<br>
Texas Sand steel wheels were retrofitted onto the rear as part
of its restoration. Wide front was also retrofitted.<br>
<br>
In 1937 Deere was manufacturing the JD A with hydraulic
rockshaft to raise cultivators. I do not know if the Lindemann
Oregon company was furnishing the aftermarket rock shaft
lifted tool carriers yet to carry a plow.<br>
<br>
In 1937 the Brown Ferguson Model A was being produced in
Europe with hydraulic 3 point hitch for plowing.<br>
