Ford 420 Industrial Tractors Owners Operators Manual PDF VEHICLE/EQUIPMENT INTRODUCTION: The Ford 420 industrial tractor was designed as a mid-range work machine capable of handling loader backhoe blade and three-point implement duties on construction sites, rental yards, municipal maintenance departments, and privately-owned properties.
