Forgotten company photos from our archives- this p Forgotten company photos from our archives- this pic was published in December 2012's mag, as an illustration accompanying a profile of Heil - a 'forgotten' equipment manufacturer.⁣
⁣
Caption: Here are two examples of Heil cable-operated blades on International TD-18 tractors. Borrowing heavily on the designs of R.G. LeTourneau, these types of Heil blade were not common (even in the 50s) in the USA, and even more rare abroad. ⁣

⁣
Caption: First of the TD-15s with planetary final drives was the TD-15B introduced in 1963. This beefy example is engaged in land clearing and has the reinforced blade to prove it. An Ateco Greenville ripper is fitted to the rear of the machine.⁣

Caption: Converted to hydraulic operation, this was once a Heil OC-14. A large number of older cable-operated scrapers from the 50s have found a new lease of life after being converted to accept modern hydraulic technology⁣

⁣
Caption: Awaiting its next job, this early TD-15 is suffering from a worn equalizer bar giving it a nose-down appearance. A common fault, this was rectified by a much heavier item from the TD-15B onwards. It is equipped with an International-built bullgrader (angle blade) and a nicely made canopy. Once again there is a prominent expansion tank on the hood, a necessary item on all early TD-15s. The mix of different track shoes is noteworthy.⁣

Caption: Beautifully restored TD-15 150 series at a farm machinery rally in the USA. It would appear that no expense has been spared to get this machine into near new condition, right down to the chromed exhaust stack! Note the radiator expansion tank on the hood.⁣
