If all else fails ,Read all that is PRINTED.
Just because you do not have the tools for job , it dose not make it a bad design.

To be accurate, only the ‘B’ engine was made by Allis Chalmers. The rest was by the Harris Power Horse Company. Here’s an article on it; from “Farm Collector”: https://www.farmcollector.com/tractors/eimcos-power-horse-tractor

Here's one I restored for a customer a few years ago. This one was in the original Power Horse colors.

The Farm Collector article says it weighs in at 2,500 pounds, Tractor Data says the B weighs 2,060 to 4,193. Must be some heavy duty construction going on there.

As I understand it they operate like a skid steer where you apply power to one side or the other to steer . Is this thinking correct ? Also were these the predecessor to the original bobcat ? Did Melroe buy the rights to produce ?
