The Steel Champion Reversible Road Machine. 



The Steel Champion is the leading machine of its class on the market to-day. Its 

 extreme simplicity, great strength and consequent durability, light draft, easy and 

 quick adjustment commend it to the every prospective purchaser, and a critical exami- 

 nation of every detail of material and workmanship will satisfy him that it represents 

 the highest type of road machine construction. 



One of the special features of the Steel Champion that we wish to impress upon 

 the reader is its thorough convenience. It is simply constructed with no complicated 

 parts, and is so easy of adjustment that it is more of a pleasure than a hardship to use 

 it. 



In the Steel Champion it is possible to adjust the blade fully eighteen inches out- 

 side of the line of wheels, and still retain a sharp angle, thus cutting down the banks 

 and widening the road. 



As a ditcher the Steel Champion has no equal. We lift the blade from ends instead 

 of from the center ; this lessens the draft on the machine when plowing, and also causes 

 the blade to run steadier. 



Our shifting rear axle overcomes side-slipping caused by the pressure of the dirt 

 against the bar. This is the only really simple device in use for shifting the rear axle, 

 and it is fully covered by patents sustained by the United States Supreme Court. Not 

 How Cheap, but How Good is the motto in the construction of the Steel Champion.
