    Mark, Now that you mention it I remember the slit in the inserts, I'm in my 80th year and was still in school when Dad was doing this so it was quite awhile ago. Thanks, Jim

    Merry Christmas-swather pics

    We sold a lot of these model 200A Deere swathers only because there was nothing else in the Deere line until the 800 came out. I still have the instruction manual for the factory change over program for them, a big program. Hope I never see another 200A as long as I live!

    Lost my son last night

    With number 1 piston installed with the "1" to the top there is a hole in the bottom side of the piston behind the oil ring. Is this hole to force oil to lubricate the piston pin? Thanks, Jim
