You've received some very good advice in the earlier responses already and I have very little to add. First, I would get the Operator's Manual for your tractor and read and understand the use for and the engagement and disengagement of the the TA for your tractor. I have a SMTA which probably has the same type of TA and since I have never used it in tillage or hay baling work probably don't know if it really works or not for sure. I do know it has a new rebuilt unit installed in the tractor as part of the restoration process from a fence row tractor. I have operated it under circumstances other then tillage and baling and it seems to work properly to me. As noted it is engaged and disengaged with a quick positive movement of the lever. Depends on what you are going to do with your tractor if you will have need to really utilize the feature or not. Tractor rides and parades are not the places where it can really be utilized for the purpose it was designed. The only areas I have utilized my TA on the SMTA is pulling loaded wagons of hay to the barn when going up a rather steep incline and the tractor would like a lower gear using the clutch and down shifting and it works great for that condition. Hope this helps and yours is probably fine and you don't have to use it unless needed, Hal.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
