To run the rototiller, the engine needs to be revved up, but the tractor must be going so slowly that you can barely see it move. 1st gear on a Super A is more like a brisk walk.
The Super A does not have live PTO, so he can't push the clutch and chew through a tough spot. When the clutch is pushed, the rototiller will also stop along with the tractor.
The PTO on a Super A is offset. This will put a nasty angle on the drive shaft to the rototiller, and it will shake apart in no more than a few minutes.
There are a few tractor mount rototillers that have their own engine, and could be bolted to the drawbar. Even so, the Super A in 1st gear at an idle may be too fast to do a good job. You really need a more modern hydrostatic-drive tractor to run a rototiller.
If you want to get him a rototiller, get him a nice Troy Built rear tine from Home Depot or Lowes.
