About the Farmall 460 and 560
International Harvester built the Farmall 460 and 560 at Rock Island, Illinois from 1958 to 1963. Both are six-cylinder tractors governed to 1,800 rpm; the 560 has the longer stroke and was the larger of the two. This manual covers the row-crop Farmall 460 and 560, the high-clearance Hi-Clear version of each, and the standard-tread International 560. Its operating sections describe the gasoline engine, the Torque Amplifier, the Hydra-Touch hydraulic system, the independent power take-off and the belt pulley, the features owners most often need instructions for today.
