So we are now the happy owners of a New Holland tractor. It is a 2002 model with 72 horsepower and 850 hours. It came with a front loader attachment and a bucket.
The sale didn't include any manuals, so Guv'nor has ordered both an instruction manual and a maintenance manual. Once they arrive and he's had a good read, he will be ready to start using it and able to show me what to do.
Our friend Fireman came over the other day to have a look at our new purchase and thought we got a good deal. He even fixed the air conditioning switch that I broke the first day fiddling with things!
The tractor was delivered on a flat bed trailer. |
The tractor was secured with several large chains. |
The large rear tires bumped down the gap between the trailer and the ground |
The front loader and bucket were skillfully used to get the front tires off the trailer. |

I fiddled with the air conditioning and heating switch and broke it. :( |
