This black and white film about tractor maintenance is a training film produced by the U.S. Office of Education, Federal Security Agency, between 1934 and 1948 as J.W. Studebaker is listed as the Commissioner of Education. It is #6 in the series of “Farm Work Equipment Maintenance.” All maintenance is shown up close and the timestamps given began that task. It opens with a man on a International Harvester Farmall bringing his tractor in to perform maintenance (:33) Each owner’s manual (1:01) details that brand of tractor’s maintenance; however, this film presents the following tasks as common to all. After every 10 hours of operation or daily, inspect the air cleaner cap (1:24); change out the air cleaner oil cup (1:42); when operating on distillate, check the oil level in the crankcase via the two petcocks (2:27); when operating on gasoline, check the oil level in the crankcase via the upper petcock (3:14); lubricate the water pump shaft using the grease required for your tractor (3:50); lubricate the rear axle bearings (4:05); lubricate the steering assembly (4:20 ); lubricate the clutch release shaft (4:53); and lubricate the starting crank bearing (5:08).

After 120 hours of operation or twice a month, the required maintenance is to replace the oil filter element, and drain and change the engine crankcase oil (8:28). After 250 hours of operation or monthly, the required maintenance is to take apart and clean the fuel line assembly (10:51); remove, clean, and check the gap in the spark plugs (12:27); and clean the chamber and check the gap of the magneto breaker points (14:31).
