Today I take delivery of my new John Deere tractor can't tell you how excited I am. Finally I get a working tractor that I don't have to work on. Look what I passed on the way to the Fifty Acre Wood.
The tractor guy showed up at the Fifty Acre Wood about 10:30 and was late due to heavy traffic and getting here.
I asked the driver to give me a quick orientation since my old tractor had simple controls this was more complicated. After taking delivery the tractor and driving it to its resting spot, I went got some lunch cool down. While I was out, I picked up a gas can and some gas for the tracter.
When I came back from lunch I read through the owner's manual to see if there's anything I should know (there wasn't). After reading the operators manual, I decided to give the tractor a ride, since the mower was already hooked, I felt the urge to mow. After mowing some simple section for about 2 hours I felt pretty comfortable. Very happy with the tractor!
I was ready to call it a day. I unhooked the mower and proceeded to park to tractor in the container. I discovered that the tractor couldn't get up the lip of the container by itself so I had to use the front end loader to lift the front end over the lip of the container. I'll have to make a ramp for the tractor so I can drive it into the container next time.
