Description: |
| Abstract:
My improvement consists of an attachment which I term a "furrow-pilot," adapted to be applied to the swiveling truck of an ordinary traction-engine, when such engine is to be used for operating a gang of plows, the farrow-pilot being provided with a runner designed to run in the last furrow, whereby the traction-engine can be automatically steered by such furrow-pilot.
Claim:
A furrow-pilot for traction plowing-engines adapted to be pivoted to the swiveling truck thereof,. |
