Must be start loosen it . Got this goofy idea i need a new TONKA toy .Been looking at Steigers, Versitals , even Massey four wheel drive . Getting tired of fighting the working ground with what we have and the time involved . Then the lack of implements in the size that we can handle now . Last year we dropped the ball on getting a field cultivator that the 1066 could handle on the ground we have , now ain't found one as they are all bigger and well for less money . Back in 89 the devil made me do it at one sale as i bought and 1805 Massey for NOT much more then i was giving for 1066's at the time with the T/A's out . It had a couple issues that were easy fixes like new battery's , make the brake work that was easy a pint of brake fluid and a quick bleed , was not charging and a stop at the local bone yard for a 10 dollar alt. One light bulb and one new flasher . The A/C would hang ice sickles off your nose . Had excellent tires and three point , no PTO , three days later at another sale i bought a set of Massey 880 hyd reset 8x18 plows for 200 bucks . I used it to do my plowing . What use to take me four evenings and sometimes five i did it in one evening . Took a bit getting use to something that big and long but i even got the little 3.2 acre done with out dropping it in the creek . It was loads of fun listen to that 3208 Cat talking . Then the thought of disking with the 706 and a 13and half foot 370 disc HUMMMM . I had to go down to a local auction yard and work on some new arrivals for the upcoming sale and did not have any extra time to get back to the farming thing as i would just about have everything p and running when another semi would pull in and the driver would tell me tha OBTW Bob said to tell you to fix that one on the back . I now had everything do9ne and waas gather up my stuff when Bob pulled in and right behind him was two loads and he suckers me into running loader to unload Last think i lifted off was a NICe kewaanie wing disc , a little weathered but NICE BIG blades but rusty . Tld bob ya know i should take that up to the farm and POLISH up them blades a bit before the sale He toold me to back my truck over and drop the pin just have it back by 9 Saturday morning . Had to change ends on the hoses . Wow i could not belive how nice a job that disc did with the harrow on it with one pass not two or three like normal 22 inch blades over my 20's . Took me longer to plant then it did to plow and disc. Should have kept it but i sold it . So now looking for something in the 210 to 250 Hp range . Missed a 1805 saw the add and did not call that min and when i went to call i went looking for the add it it was GONE , then saw and add for a PT 225 Steiger and it was there one min and GONE the next.
