My L5240 hydrostatic quit on me at the furthest point from the barn. I suspect it's fuel related and I've got a few nice days where I can work on it in the field. But if I don't get it running, can I tow this?

Put the range shifter in neutral and the 4/2wd in 2wd.

Maybe tie some helium balloons on the tires and float it back to the barn ?;)
Hay, I was there once...amazing how tractors ALWAYS breakdown the far, far away from the drive sheds !!
