Accessories For Motorized Pedal Tractor
 ✖  |
Thanks for the story on the motorized pedal tractor that I built for my grand kids (Vol. 24, No. 6). The tractor is built out of a Deere 20 series pedal tractor which I completely restored. A 3 1/2 hp Briggs and Stratton gas engine direct-drives a centrifugal clutch which chain-drives the rear axle.
I've built several implements for the tractor, including a chisel plow anhydrous trailer, moldboard plow, and gravity wagon. The plow raises and lowers with a pair of levers. The land wheel is a lawn mower wheel purchased at a hardware store, the furrow wheel was made for a pedal tractor, and the wheel on back is off a baby stroller. The moldboard bottoms are made out of 16-ga. steel.
The gravity wagon measures about 3 ft. long and is made out of 16-ga. Sheet metal. It has automotive-type steering and a sliding door connected by cable to a wheel that's used to open it. (Frank L. Miller Farms, 307 Iowa Ave., Mott, N. Dak. 58646 ph 701 824-2637)
