The "tractor" appears to have a large pulley mounted horizontally beneath the chassis.  Could this be for ropes in balloon work?

I wouldn't have thought that a horizontally mounted winch wheel underneath the tractor would be safe or effective for use in balloon work.

I would think it's for horizontal winching work, winding in artillery pieces, trailers and the like.

I think it is a winch can be used to pull itself out of the mud when stuck and to pull guns out as well.
