Tractor Info

1916-1928

The Huber Light Four really put the company into the tractor business. Only weighing 5,200 pounds, it had a 12-25 horsepower rating — the power being derived from a Waukesha 4 1/2 x 5 3/4 inch four-cylinder motor. Two forward speeds and one reverse were available in the selective sliding gear transmission. A distinctive feature of the Light Four was the exceptionally large front wheels. Huber introduced the Light Four in 1917, pricing it at $1,085. It was built until 1928.
