Toggle Clamp Tractor Door Opener

Auburn, MI, farmer George Berg’s Toggle Clamp Tractor Door Opener makes accessing the tractor cab easier for his uncle, who has arthritic hands. Berg simply bolted a toggle clamp to the door handle, using two pieces of metal-one on the front and one on the back. When pushed with the palm of hand, the clamp hits the button on the door and opens it.
