We frequently get asked "how do I do it??"So simple if the book was infront of them. I wonder.. Are people too cheap they wont spend 35 dollars on a book that can save countless hours and dollars on maintenance and repairs? Do they just not know a book is available,or where to find?Or do they think they can get all the 'free' infothey want right here and not have to spend 35 dollars?Or do they just get a 'new' tractor/implement home an want to try it out? I get that. I've done the same.IMHO,If you have an implement or tractor,you need a book. That is the first thing to buy for it.Like N OLD TRACTOR MECHANIC ONCE TOLD ME "THEY WONT SPEND 5 DOLLARS FOR A RAIN CAP TO KEEP THE RAIN OUT,BUT THEY WILL DARN SURE SPEND 5000 DOLLARS TO overhaul the engine when it got rain in it." Or wont spend 35 dollars on a baler book,but will spend several hundred dollars at the dealer,or loose a hay crop to rain Seems that 35 dollar book would have been worth 10,or 100 times it cost..Please dont get me wrong.I dont mind helping and adviseing,that's not the point.I rather enjoy helping.Makes me feel good by helping others.The point is,help yourself help yourself by buying and reading the approiate books/manuals.Yes,Ive been working on these old tractors/implements for 50+ years,even worked as a professional mechanic for a time.I pretty much have a handle on a lot of tractors/implements. However,I still read the book from time to time. If I buy a tractor/implement that is 'new' to me,I will order a book.Owners,service,parts. It always pays off in the end.I frequently learn things I didnt already know,or get reminded of things I did know,but forgot'Continueing education'?OK,rant over... :)Happy reading!

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
