the normal stuff , check for and rear end noise any noise in all (4) of the gears and also high and lo range check for excessive blow by on the engine look for oil in the water and ckeck the engine oil for milkyness , if it has fresh oil in the engine then ask the dealer to try it for a coupel of days also check the T/A , the way that i do it is to drive the tractor in third gear in high range and ride the brakes and put a load on the engine and take her down to about 1500 RPM with the throttel wide open and pull the Torque. and if it shifts down with out and hesatations then is is in fairly good shape check the hitch for responce and the pto. Hope you find a good one. I have one that i am going to sell one of these day and it has been all gone through except the paint job thats next.
