I HAVE HAD AN 335 MM FOR 37 YEARS.JUST THINK IT IS GREAT OR IT WOULD NOT HAVE HELD ON TO IT.MINE IS A REGULAR WIDE FRONT FARM TYPE W/AMPLI-TORQUE WHICH IS EXTREMELY HELPFUL.HAVE USED IT ALL THIS TIME WITH AN 80 INCH WOODS MOWER.ONE WAS MOUNTED . THE OTHER IS PULL TYPE.PREFER MOUNTED.THIS TRACTOR ALWAYS STARTS ON A HALF REV.OF CRANKSHAFT.LOTS OF ENGINE TORQUE DUE TO ITS LONG STROKE LOW SPEED ENGINE.IHAVE TRIED OTHER BRAND TRACTORS OF EQUAL H.P.W/MY MOWERS W/OUT ANY SUCCESS.THEY JUST WOULD NOT PULL THE SAME.MY ONLY TROUBLE EVER HAS BEEN WITH THE LIFT. I WAS NOT CAREFUL ABOUT KEEPING THE HYD.OIL UP TO THE TOP OF THE VALVE AN OPERATING HOUSING.AS A RESULT THE CONNECTING ROD BETWEEN HYD. PISTON AND DRAFT ARM CRANK WORE A 3/4 INCH SLOT AT THE UPPER END.IF YOU DO PURCHASE,AND INTEND TO MOW W/IT USE A MOUNTED MOWER.THE REAR WEIGHT WILL PAY OFF IN EASE OF STEERING . GOOD LUCK.
