Hi, I recently bought a John Deere 240 (serial number is for a 2000, but was told it was built in 2002). It has just under 2200 hours on the meter (hope it's accurate). Just going to use it around the house for mowing, pushing snow around, moving some dirt around, and possibly digging post holes (all general stuff I guess). Anyway, I've used them before, but this the first one I've owned so I may be asking a lot of questions if I don't find the answers in the forums.
