12-24 E This model replaced the 10-20 C but was pretty much identical about the only difference
was that the clutch was changed to the disc type instead
of the old contracting band type. A new style steering quandrant was added
with an enclosed worm gear set at the lower end of the steering column. It still had only 2 speeds forward.
12-24 G
The 12-24 G had an increased engine bore to 5.75, an
increase of a quarter of an inch from the 12-24 E. It still had the 2 forward speed transmission.
This model now carried the new winged decal and winged radiator cap which is a trademark for all of the later lighweight
models. It still had the short or bobtail fenders and round spoke wheels both front and back.
Although the front wheels could be equiped with the heavy cast wheels.
12-24 H
The latest version of the 12-24 is the 12-24 H and came
with a new 3 forward speed transmission with a road gear of 4.3 mph. The 12-24 H featured
improved pistons for higher compression and was now capable of burning gasoline more effecient. A
larger platform was added and the fenders came down to the platform boards for added safety
for the operator. During 1929 the rear wheel spokes were changed to the flat type and it was
possible to have the flat spokes on the front also, but the heavy cast front wheels were the normal.
The 12-24 models could all be equiped with hard rubber tires and a power take off assembly was also available.
Take a look at my 1927 12-24 H with the cast front wheels and factory PTO click here.
The 12-24 models are desireable amongst collectors for the fact that they are easy to work on and are lightweight and easy to take to tractor shows. Just make sure the Madison Kipp oiler is in working order. The oiler is the back bone of the engine and must be working properly.
