Hitching The Tractor To The Implement, Tractor Safety Cartoon
Cartoon from an International Harvester operator's manual. The cartoon is underneath the heading: "Hitching the Tractor to the Implement". The cartoon depicts a man on a personified tractor with a rope tied taut around a stump. A personified stump next to the tractor says: "Hey! Take up that slack E-A-S-Y!" A caption below the cartoon reads: "Always hitch to the tractor drawbar, and when pulling a heavy load, stumps, rocks, or fence posts -- don't take up the slack of the chain with a jerk." |
