	The nice thing about a crawler is that if would generally have a good 
ground in case you wanted to put a lightning rod on it...   ;-)   If you 
put a rod on a rubber tired tractor you would have to drag a ground rod 
along behind you...   :-)
	I say that in jest but actually it is recommended to ground a tractor when 
doing belt work to ground out a possible static charge. Some of the old 
manuals recommended hanging a chain from the frame of a rubber tired 
tractor. I never saw that recommendation for one on steel.   :-)   We did 
most hay blower belt work with a 9N or the TO-20. I used to just lean the 3 
point Ford/Ferguson drawbar against the tractor somewhere.
