Thought I'd just say, as a new Oliver owner, that I learned my lesson today about safety.
For those who will read this message in the future: Get a manual and READ IT, and KNOW your tractor. Sure its fun to just hop on one and take off, but...
I was snaking a downed tree out through a tight 'S' shaped spot in the back yard with my S55. I shut her down to get off and re-align the log some, to help with my manuever.
When I got back on board, and hit the kick start, I was half way through a very large magnolia before I realized it would start in gear.
Sheesh.
