Overview

The Allis-Chalmers Homesteader 7 is a compact lawn tractor powered by a 7HP Briggs & Stratton 275cc gasoline engine. Built in the USA between 1971 and 1972, this model features a 3-speed gear transmission and an open operator station designed for straightforward mechanical reliability.

Ideal Applications

Lawn Maintenance: The 30-inch mid-mount mower deck attachment combined with a 7HP engine makes this tractor suitable for managing turf and grass cutting tasks.
Confined Space Operation: With a narrow 30-inch total width and a 44-inch wheelbase, this machine is designed to navigate tight spaces and restricted paths where larger equipment cannot operate.
Basic Property Utility: The 3-speed gear transmission and manual gear-and-sector steering provide a simple, durable mechanical platform for general light-duty utility work.
