The Sandusky Tractor was produced by the Dauch Manufacturing Company of Sandusky, Ohio.  A manufacturer of farm tractors, Dauch titled the 10-20 J the "little fellow with the big pull." The Sandusky Tractor became one of its most popular models and was sold on the  international market. The 10-20 was powered by kerosene and equipped with a four-cylinder, four-cycle engine, and a three-speed transmission.  

According to the company's trade catalog of which one is held by the Smithsonian, the Sandusky Tractor could pull several plows. It also handled easily in small fields.
