The
helper

is
not
a
regular
part
of
the
tractor,
but
is
furnished
with
front
mounted
equipment
such
as
the
snow
thrower
and
front
blade.
It
is
also
furnished
with
the
rotary
tiller
and
integral

as
shown,
Figure

the
helper

decreases
the
effort
required
to

Although
not
needed
for
mower
operation,
the
helper
