Went thru all the fluids and made sure that they were adequate. Differential/tranny full plug was a bit tricky. You fill at the front of the tranny and the full plug is adjacent to the PTO shaft. Hmmm.Accidentally got it running. Kept looking at the shaft thing with a knob on the end adjacent to the steering wheel on the starter. From it's position it was right where the starter solenoid engegement lever is located. Hmmmmm. The key start spun the starter allright, but the starter just spun; no engagement. Finally I tried a combination of things and when I pushed on the knob and turned the key to the start position, she whirred for a couple of seconds and kicked to life. Was impressed as this tractor has been sitting since before October when my friend bought the property with it as part of the deal. Anyhew, we ran it for awhile and drove it around the lot and the engine must have been redone recently as once the initial crud blew out, it ran clean and smooth. RPM, hour meter, oil press and ammeter all worked. Oil pressure was good, high, and steady.
----- ----- ---- Now the question: On the dash is a double H shift diagram showing 6 forward speeds and 2 reverse. How do you get from one to the other? Do you push down on the shifter to change ranges? If so, which one is down? Couldn't find any range lever or anything else to move. Help appreciated. Mark
