Welcome carhopper. The 3000 series are great tractors. Your machine was built May 15, 2002 and was the 22nd built that day on assembly line #2. The 3206 were built from 2000 to 2002 and have the cast iron rear. The locking differential is nice but be careful on how you use it. I see a lot of these machines with blown out rears because the locker will break inside and then the broken pieces will break the case.
I have a 3205 and 2 3165's but mine are the older design and don't have the deck height adjustment knob. My decks ride on the front casters and rear rollers. They changed the brake location on the later machines and moved them inside the frame. Mine have the disc brakes located out near the wheels.
I have a few 3000 series repair manuals that I can email you (pm me your email)or maybe one of the mods can post it in the manual section.
Now, let's see some pictures of it!
