Thanks Phil, Mark and Mitchell. I’ve decided against paining
the 430 V. It looks really great in his work clothes right now.
Very little surface rust. But you’re right: That refurbished
John Deere rake does look a little too new behind it :-)

<div>And yes Mark the rain stayed away but we actually had some
small chances during the cloudy days and had a light mist the
morning after I cut. No worse than a heavy dew so the hay
remained unaffected. A few local showers did show up but
missed me thank goodness. So I avoided the “clean” hay.</div>

<div>Mitchell. My grandson is visiting this weekend. Last week
before his daycare opens up. Interestingly, he was fixated
with the temperature gauge this time. “It’s going up to
normal, grandpa!“. I also had to pull a few hills with a low
throttle setting and a higher gear so he could hear it “work“.
He loves to hear that 430V putt, putt, putt when the governor
opens up a bit. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’ve been teaching him to steer too. Here’s a video.
Probably one of the last lessons. He’s getting too big to
safely sit on may lap while we joy ride.</div>

Good tractor
day <br>

<div

<div
class="PlainText">After
a drying delay
(one day) due
to cloud cover
that was
completely
unforecasted,
I got to rake
today. My new
(to me
anyways) rake
that I bought
last year and
the 430 V did
great.<br>
<br>
The timing I
did was
extremely
helpful. Not
only was power
and engine
speed
noticeably
smoother, I
found another
benefit:
Last year I
noticed my
nostrils would
sting just a
bit from the
exhaust. Kept
thinking I
need to
reroute the
exhaust.
Actually it
was a symptom
of my timing
being off a
hair. No
exhaust sting
in the
nostrils
today.<br>
<br>
It was a good
day.<br>
