Set Facts

Set 851 was released under the "Technical Set" series in 1977 in Europe. It made it to the US in 1978 with the number 952 as an "Expert Builder"set.
This tractor features rack and pinion steering, a PTO (Power Take Off) which can power various implements including the thresher of the primary model, and a linkage to raise and lower the implements. When the tractor moves, that bevel gear moves and if the tool is in the lowered position, then its own mechanism is activated as well.

“The first model from the Lego Technic series with large wheels (24x43). Larger wheels had not yet existed. A very beautiful model of an old tractor. The tractor belongs to the oldest models from the Lego Technic series. With steering, lifting of the gyroscope and the... More corresponding power train, the model offers many functions in relation to the number of individual parts.”

“A number of tractors have been made over the years, but this one is the most elegant in many ways. I've seen old tractors which look very much like this one on many occasions while riding through the countryside in the Midwest of the USA (without the studs, of course). It... More is a very nostalgic design.”

About Technic

TECHNIC is one of The LEGO Company's main lines based on creating detailed model machines and mechanical toys with specialized beams, axles, gears and connectors and primarily designed for older children and adults. The theme was first introduced as the Expert Builder series in 1977, but was officially renamed as TECHNIC in 1984. TECHNIC is still an active theme, and is one of the longest running themes in LEGO history. While most TECHNIC sets are vehicles that use pieces to mimic real vehicles, such as engine pieces, suspension, pneumatic, and transmission pieces, the TECHNIC parts have been used by various other System themes as well as LEGO Mindstorms.

These boxes require experience and expertise in LEGO building. In every box there are detailed building instructions. The exciting models are technically realistic with working pistons, gears etc. The many new special components offer the opportunity to find out how things work.
