The bottom one is a pull type 2 bottom plow needing a hydraulic cylinder to raise and lower in and out of the ground. Next one up is a sickle bar mower. Pic. looks like a 3pt. hitch but would need to see from the other side to see hook up . Not sure on the other 2 pic. maybe cultivators. Again more pics. would help.
The plow reminds me of the old Deere that Grandad got with a 520. The cultivators do also.
As for the sickle mower what's puzzling is that the drive is 180 degrees from where it should be in line with the cutter bar.
Unless one is mowing in reverse ????
Starting at the bottom, the plow appears to be a 2-bottom John Deere model 55. There was never a hydraulic cylinder.
Next up, I think the mower is a slightly dismantled International C-21 or 24 P.
The 2 top pictures appear to be parts of belly mounted cultivators.
The plow looks similar to a plow we had years ago. There was an arm with teeth on it to raise the plow. This was done by pulling a rope hooked to a lever on the plow. The lever would drop down into a gear inside the wheel. To drop the plow you pulled the rope again and the plow would drop to start plowing. If the plow gathered up debris or vines it was a real pain in the butt to clean.
