The tractor had been parked since the last show in the fall.I checked the trans for neutral and while test fitting the crank. Noticed out of the corner of my eye but didn't think anything of my Father now perched upon the comfy warm sheep skin covered seat. I was crouched down carefully sliding the crank into place. Then very slowly turned the crank while observing for anything to catch, drag and not scratch the paint.
