It's shallow on the tractor's own performance and aimed squarely at owners hunting for add-on parts, not buyers evaluating the machine.
Posted by Paul & Kathy Short, who run an aftermarket tractor-mod business, so expect product promotion rather than an independent tractor review.
It's a rear step accessory crossed over from BX-series designs, giving a safer surface to step on at the back of the tractor instead of slipping on the frame.
It fits snugly and is held on with hose clamps at each end, mainly as a technicality since it taps on and fits well without slipping.
The maker says it fits better on this model than the BX version and should work on any B Series or similar line.
