Don,

AH.  See what I have to learn about tractors!   With this information,  
I may do it less harm.

So I set the RPM, then put clutch pedal in, then select gear, then let  
off the clutch pedal carefully?

  This thing has, I think, three forward gears for work and one for  
"road".  The road gear gets you going some 15 mph or so.

Is this when the little bits of metal collect at the bottom of the oil  
pan like gold in a Yukon stream?
