J.I.Case built and marked a 3pt. drawbar for Eagle Hitch tractors. It is much safer for skidding logs on a smaller tractor, and can easily be fabed with common 3pt. drawbars and some scrap steel. The butt of a log can be some what lifted for easier pulling and if you study the geometry of the hitch, you see that the harder the log pulls, the more forward pressure is applied to the top link , and thus forcing the front of the tractor down rather than pulling it up further to a point of a backwards flip. It is not a fool proof design, as you are still pulling from behind the rear axle fulcrum point. It does however allow more steering control since the choker chain is coupled much closer to the rear axle than a hook on a back blade would be. Personally I use a 3pt. skidding arch that I built for my Kubota B2150. If a log catches and does raise the front, the blade on the arch digs in, rear tires loose traction and prevents the front from rising any further. The Kubota also has a ROPS. Loren

Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
