420LSE owner packet

[wh500special 2,156]

Last night I was going through some things looking for a specific manual for something.  I didn't find that, but I did happen across the owner's packet that came with the 420LSE that's now in my possession.  Included in the embossed vinyl pouch was the hang tags affixed to the tractor, the owner's manuals, the detailing instructions for the 48" deck, warranty card, and return envelop for the little chrome plate that attaches to the hood.  Apparently you'd send the plate to Ireland Rd. with your 18 character personalization request, they'd engrave it and send it back. 

 

Thought you all might like to see this stuff.

 

Also note the extra chrome-plated, hairpin cotter enclosed.

Cool!  I would have thought it would be a leather pouch since the steering wheel and seat were both leather.  So your engraving plate was never sent in? Is it in the pouch or is it blank on the tractor?

Pouch looks like fine Corinthian pleather.

Some pretty neat  stuff there.

You know, it might BE leather.  I just assumed vinyl since it's quite thin and sort of rubbery.  I'll look closer tonight.

 

The plate on my tractor is blank and is still attached to the hood.  If I recall, they're held on by little screws so are easily removed (no rivets).

You should get your  plate personalized.

I had to find that commercial.  I remember it from ages ago.  (see 21 seconds in)

yes it is leather I had the contents of my pouch in a 24x36 frame on display at the wheel horse show this year with the tractor
