HI,

Did you try it yet to make sure the weight of the bar clamp does not make the tractor move on its own?

I'm thinking you might have to add a little weight on the reverse end of the rocker pedal to balance things out...

Other than that, good luck with your knee and your snow removal too! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Just take things easy........don't rush it. And be careful with the knee. One slip and it could set rehab back a bit.

We have quite a bit of walking trails in our back field that my daughter and I tried it out on today. it worked pretty well. Had to make a few adjustments on it to work right, but have it down now. Thanks for the concern. Shouldn't be much of a problem though.

Thank you. I'll take your advice. Just hard to let anyone else use my tractor. I've been waiting for snow all yr.

Ray,
I had knee surgery once and went back to work in 10 days..... tought I was fine. Set me back quite a bit. A co-worker just had the same thing done and he's been on light duty for the last 5 weeks. Hmmm..... maybe Worker's Comp has a lot to do with his "slow" recovery /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
