[AT] Farmall Cub

[David Rotigel]

Hi Gene,
	While the Cub is a cute little tractor I think you will find it  
dramatically underpowered to pull even a L59 Woods mower. The 9.14  
(belt) HP simply is not enough. My M-H Pacer (with ~19 belt HP) has  
about all it can do to pull the L59 at times--and yes, I keep the  
blades sharp! If you are stuck on International I'd suggest the A  
(about 19 belt HP) the B (about 16 belt HP) or the C (about 21 belt  
HP.) The "Supers" added about 3 HP to those ratings.
	Dave
