Abstract: A removable transport wheel assembly for a ground penetrating machine such as a roto tiller for providing removable wheels for movement of the machine from place to place and loading and unloading. The machine has a transverse power driven shaft carrying earth working implements and having tubular transverse ends. Pin assemblies have shanks that pass diametrically through the transverse ends of the shaft. A pair of wheels are provided each having a stub axle with a diameter to be slip fitted in a transverse end of the shaft, and with an enlarged shoulder to engage the transverse end of the shaft to limit axle movement of the axle into the shaft. Each stub axle has a slot which engages the shank of the pin assembly. At the inner end of the slot is a groove which provides a seat for the shank of the pin assembly to releasably fasten the wheels to the shaft of the machine for transport from place to place. The wheels are readily removed for using the machine in an earth working function.

Abstract: A foot operable apparatus for steering an outboard motor powered boat to leave the hands of the boatman free to tend to other tasks. The apparatus has a frame disposed on the floor of the boat and carrying a turntable forward of the motor and rotatable about a generally upright axis. A cable assembly extends from the turntable and has ends connected to the motor such that turning of the turntable is effective to turn the motor. Foot pedals are associated with the turntable such that the turntable can be rotated by the feet of the boatman.
