Thanks to rkidd for the MMM encouragement. I removed/reinstalled the MMM yesterday for practice and am getting better at understanding the gauge wheel settings. I even put it to work at mowing an acre of dried, leaf covered field. It worked really nice cutting at 2 inch winter height. Those low settings is what screwed up the removal/install. Bumping 86 years old however, I don't think I'll compete with a 60 year old whelp..:laughing:

Oldballs, did your dealer get your tractor straightened out?

Hey Mike. That is great that you are that age and still running and enjoying tractors. I hope I am as fortunate as you to be in that good of shape and still running my Kubota!! I have been very happy with my mmm and it mows extremely well as you said. Good luck to you and enjoy.

The dealer is to pick it up this Monday. I think all will end well. Yesterday I added another quart of Super UDT2, which brought it up to the stick range. That took a whole gallon....before I ran it to mow an acre. I was beginning to think that I was adding HST fluid into the wrong hole.:confused2:

I'm up in Coudersport Pa at my buddies digging for a shed addition. I've done about all I can do, next is bring in an excavator for the rocks that are as big as my entire tractor!

I'm taking pictures while my buddy is driving the machine. I trust him, he items an excavation company... So he's not trying to learn on my machine.
