Barings. All of these important parts are thor
oughly enclosed and run in oil. The friction

and conveniently located for belting up to any
machine. The Motor has a removable head also

Core is supported by a four piece cast frame.
The fan is driven by spiral gears enclosed. The
‘‘safety’ fan hub prevents damage to these
gears when starting. No fan belt or chain to
look after. The Sylphon Thermostat regulates
the cooling system. Water circulation is insured
by a centrifugal pump. This controlled cooling
device maintains proper temperature of water
to keep the motor hot thereby assuring
J i g thor-

ough combustion and prevents raw fuel pass
ing by the pistons or diluting the oil in
crank case.
The Case Air Washer permits only clean,
moist air entering carburetor, consequently no
dust can enter the cylinders. This means a long
lived motor. This tractor weighs only 3400 lbs.
When plowing all wheels travel on unplowed
land. The hitch is low and adjustable, eliminat
ing undue side draft. For
