The IH Farmall Cub Lo-Boy tractor, also known as the International Cub or simply the Cub Lo-Boy, was a compact and versatile tractor produced by International Harvester (IH) from 1947 to 1957. This iconic machine was designed to be a smaller, more maneuverable alternative to the larger Farmall tractors, aimed towards the needs of smaller farms and hobby farmers. The Lo-Boy designation indicated its low profile, allowing for easier access to tight spaces and ideal for tasks like mowing, cultivating, and operating various implements. This low center of gravity also contributed to its renowned stability, even on uneven terrain. The Farmall Cub Lo-Boy was powered by a single-cylinder gasoline engine, offering a modest but reliable power output. It featured a 3-speed transmission with a reverse gear, providing a range of speeds for different tasks. The tractor also boasted a unique design with a "floating" front axle, allowing it to comfortably navigate uneven ground and provide smooth operation.
The Farmall Cub Lo-Boy was incredibly popular during its production run, becoming a symbol of postwar agricultural progress. Its compact size, maneuverability, and affordability made it an attractive option for farmers of all sizes. The tractor also became a favorite among homeowners, finding use in various yard work tasks and gardening projects. While production ended in 1957, the Farmall Cub Lo-Boy continues to hold a special place in the hearts of many enthusiasts. Its durability, simplicity, and nostalgic appeal ensure that these classic machines remain in use and highly sought after today. The availability of service parts manuals, such as the one referenced, is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Farmall Cub Lo-Boy and its continued impact on the world of agriculture and home maintenance.
