It wasn't a big deal and he'd get on and go with me to get a new tank, etc. I'd pull it along the pasture and he'd fill over the fence. I will say I grew up on a little 861 that was converted to Propane and I loved that little shifter! My first real job with that tractor was pulling Anhydrous tanks along the field for my uncle when he needed to fill up when side dressing. Sure I've seen PLENTY of them on little Fords but really? No thanks! Lol. Sorry and I may get flamed for this but a loader on a little Ford to me has always been a little on the crazy side. This made the shifting back and forth a little tricky but not too bad Pushing the shifter down part way gave you 2nd which was a better speed for a loader. This could work out as a shuttle of sorts for a loader. Fully up forward was 3rd gear and back was Reverse. This tractor worked out quite well on a baler as pushing the clutch half way down stopped the forward motion to allow a slug to work through. The PTO was not an independent type as you did need to stop to engage it. Pushing the clutch all the way down stopped the PTO also. Pushing the clutch down part way stopped the forward motion but the PTO kept turning.
