I like that Mazda, bet it's a pleasure tooting about in one of them.

I don't need it obvs. Got a nice diesel kubota already, but couldn't resist when nobody was bidding at £50.
Can you let me know what all the safeties do and where they are? my dad has the same and I'm sure it's a bugger to start half the time as some safety is still engaged....

Only two as far as I know. The seat has a switch underneath and the foot brake need to be depressed. Make sure the pto for the mower deck is disengaged too.

First is an A35, second a A30. Something to with the grilles/back window size.
