I am about to buy my first tractor. It is a bx2200 with a Curtis cab and heater. It has the power angle plow with down pressure. This tractor has only been used to clear snow from sidewalks. It has quite a bit of surface rust on the lower third of the tractor, including underneath. It was towed from job to job on an open trailer where it caught a lot of salt spray from the road.
The 3pt hitch and pto have never been used. Could this lack of use cause any negative issues?
I have no experience with tractors and would apreciate any advice on this unit... quirks, common problems, wear points to look at, etc..
Thanks in advance for any possitive input.

The bx2200 is a strong little tractor I have two friends that have them.
neither have ever had a single problem so i don't know what you
should look for. Iv'e had my bx1500 for six years mows the grass
tills the garden sprays the lawn moves dirt, mulch plows alot of snow
and anything else i can find for it to do. over 400 hrs. never had to fix a thing.
