They had one Cat Ten on display. Possible 3 remnants as parts.
8 or so Cat 15s.[attachment=27294]20150104_152428.jpg[/attachment][attachment=27295]20150104_151628.jpg[/attachment][attachment=27296]20150104_151608.jpg[/attachment]

Frank,

I'll try and answer a few questions about the machines pictured. The first set of a Ten with blade is a tractor owned by one of our chapter members. He has been associated with the Museum for many years and is able to store a lot of his tractors onsite including the blue and red chain-drive 1918? Mack in the first picture. The FIFTEEN with the wood sun canopy belongs to the Museum. The other machines including the 20 with terracer, all belong to another of our members who lives in Long Beach. These guys don't follow the BB but I'm hesitant to name them here for privacy reasons. None of them that I know of, are for sale. I have tried the buy one of the terracers but no deal yet. I'm glad you were able to give us a visit as we think we have a lot of good stuff around to see. Did you get up to the harverster barn to see the 1918 Holt side-hill harvester. It is a gem and in rather good condition. It was donated to the Museum some time back. Our club is investigating how we can reposition all the Cat stuff for better viewing. These things take time.

Seeing the different cats helped me locate where the parts go on the cat 10 I am working on.
Would you know anyone familiar with working on the tens and 15s? Is there a shop manual for the Cat 10?
Regards,
Frank

Stew,

The picture is correct for a TEN. The yoke is down so you don't block the oil passage for the throw out bearing.

Frank,

Search the internet for Jensales for manuals. I buy mine there. The photos are not as clear as the original but the printed words are the same. I brought back a FIFTEEN over the last two years. I am out of the country but you can ask me questions by sending me an email ([email protected]) or PM.

Blakeystew- For a FIFTEEN, it should install above the bearing as you mention. After seeing Pat's post, I guess the TEN goes under the bearing. Never did a TEN so don't know.

Thank you for your posts.
I will.be attempting to remove the bolts this week to dismount the fork and allow the clutch pack to move forward out of the housing with the engine.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
