While changing tires I found out my rims were made in June of 1976 and my tractor rolled of the assembly line September 20, 1976, she's 35 years young this month, she's also a Virgo, like long walks on the beach and foreign films. Today she got the rest of the set of AG tires and was starring in a new video.

Nice looking tractor. I don't think she really talks to you. I think she is really out of your league.

Sure sounds loud! Do you have a muffler on it? I see a tailpipe. Maybe you just have a very sensitive microphone.

It's actually pretty quite, it's this Fuji digital camera that also shoots movies, for a 100.00 camera it shoots great pictures and movies with GREAT sound, almost too good.

I watched your less than a minute vid w my rocket dialup connection. What are you using to tilt the blade - it almost looked like you had it on a couple of strings or something - like it seemed you hooked it near the steering. I like the way it lifts - that's cool.

My tractor always seems kinda loud too - I like it with hearing protection. I have a tiny hole in the muffler, but I don't think that makes it loud really; it just is loud. I use hearing protection on my Pacer too, preferentially.

I made it. It's a 7/16 inch steel rod with a double coupler on the plow end. I used a torch to shape the handle like a triangle, when I turn the handle it unlocks the adjustment catch, when I push or pull the rod it moves it right or left, then I again turn the handle to lock it in place. I have a eye bolt I opened up to use as the rest for the rod. I've never used hearing protection, I find it keeps me from hearing. My last hearing test says I'm in the top 5 percent on hearing, of course my eyes are a different story

I rolled off the assembly line September 7th, 76. I'm only 34 though. :) That's cool you know the exact date! I wonder when my 7016 rolled off....

Sometimes, you can actually hear more with hearing protection. It filters mainly high frequencies; and muffles the rest; it doesn't delete anything. I remember the first time I rode my motorcycle without helmet - what's all the racket? It takes the edge off noise and reduces db pressure.

I like the descript of the plow adjust. Makes sense. Good work.
I have a hard time trying to learn about attachs and hitches and all those parts. So I always notice.

That's why I quit posting, no one actually reads my posts, every tractor is stamped with the date it rolled off the assembly line, You just have to know where to look, ask Phil he knows everything.
