I operated on the assumption that you
introduce a worthwhile feature on a product, then find a way to
'improve' cost effectiveness.Isn't that what makes America great? [
Tongue firmly in cheek.] My 1973 I-5 had the sticker, my 1972 E-20 CA
has the plastic plate. RJ Clean Power Supply wrote: RJ, Vice Versa. The decal came first followed by the plastic emblem. Ditto for the hood insignia. Not that it matters much :-) Harold Z. -------------------------------------------------------------- Yep. Hard to believe but true. <VBG> On earlier units it was a raised lettered plastic plate that surrounded the shift lever hole in the footplate.On later units it was replaced with a more cost effective but less durable sticker. It contained words to the effect....... "To facilitate gear shifting,place the gear shift in Neutral, and turn the traction motor On then Off.Quickly move the shift lever to the desired position." Personally I prefer to just rock the tractor back and forth with my overly upholstered body while in the seat while exerting just enough pressure on the gear shift to feed the mating surfaces together.There are some situations however where this method is neither prudent or possible. :) Like on a steep incline.
