International Farmall – collective brand page: from the small Farmall Cub to the Farmall 504, petrol and diesel engines with 7 to 34 kW

This page brings together Farmall-branded models that could not be assigned to a named range of their own: the compact Farmall Cub, the 404 and the Farmall 504. Farmall was the farm tractor brand of the International Harvester Company, headquartered in Chicago, which built tractors under this name from 1923 for American and, later, European agriculture. Type numbers such as 404 or 504 denote the respective model line within the International Harvester range.

The register lists 3 versions here with 6.9 to 33.8 kW rated output from four-cylinder engines of 976 to 2,493 cc displacement. Kerb weight ranges from 594 to 2,443 kg, length from 2,388 to 3,372 mm, width from 1,200 to 2,108 mm and height from 1,588 to 1,981 mm, at rated speeds between 1,600 and 2,200 rpm. Fuel types recorded are petrol, petrol with LPG dual-fuel operation, and a version additionally capable of running on diesel.

The wide gap between the tiny Farmall Cub and the considerably larger Farmall 504 shows the breadth of the Farmall programme, which ranged from market-garden and orchard tractors to all-purpose tractors for medium-sized farms. As one of the best-known American tractor brands, Farmall shaped the mechanisation of North American agriculture for decades and was also sold in Europe.

When buying a used Farmall, check, depending on the model, the condition of the carburettor or injection system, wear on the clutch and the often simple gearbox, and corrosion on bodywork and radiator after long outdoor use. Spare parts for Farmall tractors are available through a wide network of vintage-tractor dealers and reproduction-parts suppliers, as the brand continues today at Case IH as a name for compact tractors.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
  • Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
