The new "A" was clearly head and sholders above its "GP" wide tread predecessor. The "A"offered a rear wheel tread adjustment from 56" to a maximum of 80". Growers of crops could adjust the rear wheelsto practically any width of row crops, without reverting tosoecial offset wheels or spacers. The tractor is equipped with round spokes steel on the front; flat spoke steel on the rear,and optional htdraulic Power Lift. This innovation, a John Deere exclusive, made the backbreaking work of raising and lowering integral implements a thing of the past.
