Well the tractor I bought off a member of this forum arrived on Thursday and I am already working on making it mine. He really made me a good deal and this machine is awesome!

I have someone welding up a bracket for the front to hang some suitcase weights and I am thinking about removing the piece circled in blue that the hand crank engages to.  I have the original handcrank still, but I am thinking having this mechanism is a moot point.  How hard is it to remove this piece?

Here are some more pictures of my machine.  I had to wash all the road salt off from the ride to PA.  It wasn't easy in the cold weather.  I then brought it inside to start setting it up for our farm.  I decided to rub it down with some linseed oil.  It really brings the old paint up a little.  I will paint the engine to cover up the
 primer they put on when they rebuilt it.

Just whack it off and leave 1/2" sticking out. You want the hole plugged to keep dirt out.
