I bought a new TC33D, my neighbor bought a used orange 29something. It looks like the K tractor is a little larger and built slightly heavier but a lot less convenient with knobs and levers scattered all over the place - the 3-point is rude and crude. I really like the NH except you can only get on from the left because of the loader joystick and you have to dismount the fuel filter to change it. Hey if you don't like boomer blue you can get the exact same thing in Case-IH red.

I bought a TC33D new last fall (in Michigan)and it had a bad battery - wouldn't hold charge for more than a week or two. The dealer replaced it under warranty but it had bubbled acid out the top and sprayed it all over the front of the radiator. It was a real mess - I cleaned it up with water and baking soda to neutralize the acid. I don't think any serious damage was done other than burning off some paint on the radiator and plate under the battery. I sprayed the radiator with WD40, the battery plate with black oil (used for chains and 5th wheels) and greased the battery posts. With the new battery we seem to be OK now.

Really don't know about the PTOs - I've never used them.
Thanks, Leonard
