Hi All! I've been reading here for a while but this is my first post. Recently bought a 140 to do gardening and some rough mowing. I'm brand new to tractors and may have questions that many of you will find funny. If I can get help I'm willing to take that. I have a rotary cutter coming in the next week, so yesterday went to Tractor Supply and picked up an overrun coupling. What I bought appears to be exactly like the one on this web page that I found by searching the archives for this board - "http://home.paonline.com/rmweber/COUPLNG.HTM". I've looked and studied some and have questions and need reassurance that I have it right. 1. I got the 1 1/8 inch one (as opposed to 1 3/8) Is that right for the 140? 2. I've read somewhere about couplers that change the PTO from 1 1/8 to 1 3/8. Is that preferred? I did not know to ask, but now wonder what size the female end of the rotary cutter I'm getting will have (Howse brand ordered through Southern States). 3. I've cleaned the PTO on the tractor good but the coupling does not want to slide onto it. Should it slide on or will I have to tap it on? Should I put grease in the coupling before sliding it onto the PTO (I mean inside the female PTO fitting, of course I know I'll put grease in via the grease fittings...)? 3. The spring pin fits through the holes in the outer ring on the coupler (where the grease fittings screw in) but stops at the inner ring. I will have to tap it in, right? Thanks for any and all help. I'm thrilled to have this tractor and am really looking forward to learning how to use and maintain it.

Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
