Ditto on that Kent! There's nothing easier than running a properly adjusted hand clutch. Back in the day when kids had to help farm as soon as they could properly operate a tractor, unless you were close to 5' tall you COULD NOT operate a foot clutch tractor. With a hand clutch he/she could stand straight up on the platform and hanging on to steering wheel and operate it correctly/safely. You can actually stand sideways on platform and look right down at drawbar and operate steering/clutch to hook up implements.
