I have to agree with the comments about the merits of not renting a neighbour's tractor. It can work very well, but it can come back to bite later and bite very hard. Personally, farm machinery and chainsaws are items I never rent out. If someone needs my tractor to do some work, then I go with the tractor and drive it. I occasionally drive neighbours' tractors for them to help them out with jobs, but I don't rent the machine. Two years ago I was mowing with an IH 844S tractor and Lely disc mower. The tractor clutch abruptly came to the end of its life in the field. My tractor and I was driving so my problem. The chap whose field I was cutting had suggested he could drive the tractor. Now that clutch was going to fail no matter who drove, but had he been operating the machine it might have caused strife. He would have felt guilty and I might have wondered whether he had maltreated the clutch. As it was there were no hard feelings and no cause for them.
