Yup it's me. When you were talking without the engine running, I could barely hear you due to my hearing problem, so I cranked up the volume to better hear you. Well that all changed when you started the engine as my speakers almost jumped off the table :-) . As always I enjoyed your videos...Ken
Sorry about that Ken. I bought new software for editing the videos. The old one was real easy to adjust the volume of the clips, but I haven't figured it out yet with the new one. Thanks for letting me know, I will see if I can figure it out.
My 147 is also stuck in gear like yours. The shift column fins parallel and behind the steering column, where it ends in a bucket? With a collar. Mine appears to be rusted tight, and hard to get to without disassembling the control panel/tower. Following your videos to see what else it may be.

Built to last! Thanks for the comment Jim.
Shane - Blind Dog Blades curious: How do they get power from horizontal shat down to deck on 147?
Just a belt and a couple pulleys powered by the front PTO.

The press was running great but I ended up selling it a couple of months ago when I moved.
