It might work. And it might not work. You might not like the quality of some of the work. I"ve had some experience with guys that like to come and hunt on the place, showing up in the summer and wanting to play farmer. Usually on a riding lawn mower they are okay. But something larger, Lord have mercy. One time I was plowing and this guy, a computer nurd who works for Nebraska Dept of Roads volentered to take over. I showed him how to raise and lower the plow, how the gear shifters work, what gear to run in , the throttle and brakes and all of that. Had 3-14s on a Massey Ferguson 65. Okay he took off and made it to the end in good shape, raised the plow, spun her around at full throttle, droped the left wheels in the dead furrow that he has just made, and came back effectlly making a ditch. We"re a little more careful now who we let do what.
