A couple of things to add to the other excellent comments: don't leave your Fergie in gear when you shut it off. It will lock in gear quite easily and then you can't shift it to start without help.

It is nerve-wracking to drive blindly through 6' orchard grass at the speeds you need to go in order to mow the stuff. Wash the dust out of the radiator vanes frequently with a garden hose and your Fergie won't overheat as much. Enjoy.
