I mow a hilly lot with a Super A, and I want to address that part. While this is a pretty stable tractor and has a low center of gravity, especially with with loaded tires, it lacks a roll-over protection system, and you have to watch what you are doing. Things can be too steep. You can get in trouble quickly, as you simply can't stop on a dime. I try to keep the left (heavy) side on the up slope, and I stay off the steep parts. I grew up with this tractor, and I'm used to it. If you are new to tractors like this, you should be cautious -- the brakes are for turning, not for stopping. Bottom line: these tractors can kill you if you aren't careful. Make sure you know what you are doing.
