[AT] Fun with mowing

[Gene Dotson]

    The 430 has a hand lever on the left side of the tractor that releases 
the traction clutch, This allows the PTO to run without forward or reverse 
travel of the tractor. Clutch is engaged with the lever forward and released 
with the lever back. It is not spring loaded like Allis Chalmers so the 
lever can be left in the disengaged position...
