Drove the 560 today. Hasn't been started in a couple weeks and fired right up. Took a little finesse with choke to get it warmed up so it'd idle. TA worked but I'm not at all sure how, or if you can even tell, if it's on it's way out. Loader frame seemed straight and not sprung, bucket sat flat on the ground and wasn't all banged up. Shifter wanted to occupy the same spot as my left leg when in R and 1 and a little less in 2 and 3. Hour meter showed 32xx hours and was working. Rear tires were like new, fronts had good tread but weather checked. It was a solid tractor with nice, straight tin, missing fenders but I think that's due to loader attachment. Fast hitch wasn't going to work with 1209 mo-co without some fabricating and welding. My 11 year old didn't care for the stuff clutch, he could barely get it disengaged and couldn't smoothly engage. He's only going to get bigger and stronger and that little problem goes away until the other kids start using it in a couple years.
Going to look at 1550 probably Thursday. Talked to guy on phone again and he agreed to hold it until then.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
