Now that I have explained why the 9 volt battery will not work, what will work is getting a battery holder from Radio Shack and using 4 D or C cells in series, or one of the 6 volt lantern batteries. I have done that and run tractors several hours on the 6 volt lantern batteries. You can even buy rechargeable lantern batteries or C or D cells if you chose to go that way.
