Thanks for letting the folks know - Junkman posted it down in the Deere section as well.

Must be another case of "cheapo" foreign fasteners.

 

[GerardC]

No problem. I went to the JD forum after posting here and noticed Junkman had already posted there. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I don't believe in posting the same information in two places, but in this case, I guess that it can't hurt. I have seen all too often where people ask the same question in 2 or 3 forums and how it is frowned upon by the management moderators.

I found out about the recall and went straight to the "Safety" forum and posted. I then went to JD and saw yours. If I had, I wouldn't of. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

I know JD owners who don't even use a computer, and I can let them know because I saw it in the safety forum. I rarely browse all the BRAND forums as there is usually enough in the general and Kioti for me. Thanks Gerard and Junkman. John

I don't think any of us here on TBN would frown on a double posting regarding the safety of our fellow TBNers.

Double postings just make it a little harder to find information and keep on track by having to follow two posts at the same time.

I like the description in the warning...

<font color="green">Description: These vehicles are small agricultural tractors that are green with yellow seats and wheels. </font>

Really? Green John Deere tractors with yellow seats...

Mossroad,

Although you find it amusing the description says: "green with yellow seats...."

To me it's more amusing the description calls a 4000-Ten series tractor SMALL....a 3000 plus pound machine??? Oh boy, I am going to talk to my wife and tell her I need a bigger John Deere as my 4210 is a small one.

Junkman, thanks for the heads up, you were right to post the information in both forums.

The 790 and 990 have black seats instead of yellow seats, we get ripped on that deal /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif.

JD probably ran out of yellow vynil. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Either that or they got a better deal on the black. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Junkman]

They wanted it to look more like a tractor than a amusement car ride. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

With that yellow seat on there We're about one step away from looking like the little Shriner (sp?) Cars in a parade. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif But I must admit, I do like it. Just imagine ordering a car with a yellow interior... nobody else could get away with it other than Deere. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
