NICE TRACTOR...!!!! Those front tires are massive..!!! When you get the tax man paid off...you can start saving up to buy diesel...... [ I like the way the dealer had the tractor chained down to the foot step braces ] Thanks for the pictures.

Actually, there are tie-down points under there. If I were hauling it, I would have more than just the one chain looped through the 2 tie downs.NICE TRACTOR...!!!! Those front tires are massive..!!! When you get the tax man paid off...you can start saving up to buy diesel......

Sorry, I thought he just was chained to the supports because he could not chain the rear with the tiller on.
I am glad to hear that. This tie down worked, but is nowhere near legal by DOT standards.

I have to say, after using my new toy a couple of days, I LOVE IT. It is just what I wanted/needed. I started looking at full frame, higher capacity machines, but this thing has the HP and drives/operates like a sports car compared to other models.
Hardest thing so far is judging where the FEL bucket is. Used to a SS, where you can see the bucket edge. Small price to pay though for the comfort and ride ( that SS kills my bad back-can't walk straight for 2 days).
Again, thanks for all the great tips and advice here; a great help for new buyers. Hopefully I can contribute also.
