Ditto on that Kent! There's nothing easier than running a properly adjusted hand clutch. Back in the day when kids had to help farm as soon as they could properly operate a tractor, unless you were close to 5' tall you COULD NOT operate a foot clutch tractor. With a hand clutch he/she could stand straight up on the platform and hanging on to steering wheel and operate it correctly/safely. You can actually stand sideways on platform and look right down at drawbar and operate steering/clutch to hook up implements. Foot clutch you HAVE to sit on seat with left foot on clutch and then twist whole upper body around to see drawbar and HOPE foot doesn't slip off clutch. And that's assuming you can reach clutch in first place.I remember distinctly having to "wait" a couple more years to run my Grandpas Super "C" /"H" when my other Grandpa had a '39 JD "B" that I could run (and did) just fine. Pluses and minuses to both. Also most need to know that back then a comparable JD "B" was cheaper to buy than the "H" Farmall and in high gear an "H" is a death trap.
