ANY way you measure
xvits performance—per acre
per hour — per gallon of gas — a Cletrac on your
farm gives you more for your money! On the
plowing job—fitting the seed bed—pulling seeders
—harvesting with combine or picker—on every
operation Cletrac performs with an ease, speed
and economy that clips dollars from your costs
and hours from your schedule.
Cletrac’s great power reserve invites you to load
it up—to add an extra plow or another section
of disc or harrow. It's sure, non-
slipping traction makes every day a good
day for field work. Its instant oiling
