I don't have a solution for problems caused by years and years of maintenance neglect, but remember ladies and gentlemen, this is why we rescue these machines. As a preventive measure to avoid just such a difficult problem as stuck weights, I rotate my weights. Yes sir, on all of my H & M's, ( one has three sets!) I rotate the weights every 100 hours or every three months which ever occurs first. Sometimes I move the weights from one tractor to another but usually I just put the outer set on the inside and vice versa. Sometimes I remove the wheel/tire and reverse the whole thing but that seems unnecessary. The important thing is to keep things rust free and well lubricated. It also helps that I never take the tractors out in the dirt and mud because, you know, that is just so hard on the floors when you bring them back in. Just my thoughts, Martha
