they can be transported. You can also regulate the operating
height of attachments, such as the grader blade, and snow

thumb button (D) on top of the handle is provided to dis¬
engage the catch from the quadrant so the lever can be

zer blade in preparing a seed bed. Both attachments can be
mounted to the tractor at the same time, and the operator
can conveniently raise or lower each of them from the trac¬
tor seat.
