My first post! Just purchased an AD3. It runs but has some issues. Don't they all! I'd like to know what year it is if possible. S/N AD3-1003. Seems like a low serial #.

First things I plan to do are change oil and filters. Then attach the battery better, fix the generator, then get the electric brakes working. Thanks.

Welcome to the site. Your grader is a 1947, per Swinford's book.

Thanks DiyDave. It's a few years older than I thought. Guess I need to start investing in some manuals.

I drove it down my driveway, dropping the blade as a brake. The blade lowers very slowly, giving me one scary moment!
