"Good machine, Reliable and as strong as any its size. I definitely believe it is under rated as they go. They should have continued making them and parts are still around, just have to look a little harder."

"The exhaust is blowing out black liquid, I think that the coolant or hydraulic fluid is leaking into the engine combustion chambers and in result it is blowing out the exhaust dripping on the hood and some blowing onto windshield of the cab. It is also dripping onto the oil filter just below the exhaust and onto the ground leaving a mess where ever I go with the tractor. I bought this tractor from the dealer and told them about the problem and said there wasn't anything wrong with the engine. Dealer: Proudfoot Motors, New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, Canada. I put trust in buying the tractor from them on their word."
