Been looking over the new tractor and takin inventory. It starts on a dime and runs great, PTO seems to engage nicely on the deck. I am going to try and fit the thrower first to see how it runs but at this rate in Maryland, It is unlikely I will need that or the blade but will probably run with the blade.
I need some pointers here.

1) One headlight was cracked and the light switch was froze. I got two new lights, and freed up the switch but no lights. Did find a wire that came of the voltage regulator and I noticed two loose wires at the switch that are no longer connected. The Wiring diagram I found does not show the switch config. Any help.

2) The wheel weights are heavy SOB's solid steel weights. They look home made and the holes are so close but do not line up exactly. What is the best way to enlarge the grooves on solid steel weights? I dont have a drill press but have a angle grinder with cutting wheel? I only have to make them slightly deeper and a bit wider.

3) Would like to install the sleeve hitch and it appears I am in need of the sleeve hitch lift pin. Best Source? Jeff in PA, Extreme Motor works, or...? I also need a bushing but I am assuming I can find one locally. What about the sleeve hitch bracket? I saw one on CL for $75.
