bell 11 #1 Posted October 3, 2009 Got this 606 yesterday from Pat (jusjeepin). I have been looking for a nice, unmolested, tractor for a long time. Now I have one. Thank you Pat! I'll get some better pics of it and add them to the gallery... when I get time to clean it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly 1,033 #3 Posted October 3, 2009 That is clean, but I think you will find that more tucky powered tractor are clean because you can never get them started jon I see it has the split key, my 656 has the hencol key thought that was odd, I know mine is orig. and I'm sure yours is also :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pfrederi 18,643 #11 Posted October 3, 2009 Nice Tractor If you want to get rid of the HH60 please let me know. The Tecumseh on my L-107 starts faster than any of the Kohlers I have and is ready to work immediately even in the winter. With her I could start her up drop the snow plow and drive out the door pushing away the snow. That gives me a place to warm up the Kohlers before they are ready to run the blower or push snow.... Another thing, why is the recoil start aimed out the front? My father was way to frugal to go for electric start so for many years you started her with the recoil aimed back sitting in the seat...Only took one pull.
