Today I will be showing you how to crank start an Allis Chalmers (AC) model "B". My tractor as you see in the video is a 1940 model... I named mine "Hallie" the Allis Chalmers. most early model "B"s up until the 50s had crank starts with no electrical powered by a battery, the only electrical on these crank start tractors is the magneto which makes power when the crank turns to make a spark and start the engine. 3 easy ways to tell if your tractor has an electric (or battery electricity in general)
1: usually a tractor with a battery will have headlights
2: there will be a box in front of the steering wheel on the transmission by where your crank is stored, that box is meant for a battery.
3: there should be a smaller box attached the battery box where there is a black button, gage, and a hole for a key
these are the 3 easy ways to visually tell if you have an electric start Allis Chalmers "B" and ike mentioned, years under the 50s "B"s usually don't have electric start unless modified.
I hope this video helps you, let me know in the comments if you have any questions or if you would like to leave a comment.
