The 1985 WH312-8 42" Side Discharge  mower deck that I'm fixing up for my son, has a label model # 0542MS04 53715. However the manual for this model number is different in that it show a item  #2 deck support" that my deck does not have.

My deck is actually recessed in the area that the deck support would cover and the 2 piece belt guards have flanges to mount directly to the deck instead of the deck support

I'm rebuilding the deck, and need to identify the correct manual so I can get spindle bearings and a belt part numbers.

also if anyone has aftermarker spindle bearing and spindle belt bart numbers that would be appreciated.

The on-=line schematics you'll find are all of a 48" side disch deck (05-48MS01....05) as they are nearly identical to the 42" side, except for the reinforcement plate. The 42" side decks do NOT have this plate and the belt covers are mounted on studs in the deck shell...not in the reinforcement plate. This is confusing, at best, but I've not found a schematic SPECIFICALLY for the 42" deck.

The other main difference is the height adjuster lever. On the 42" deck, this is on the RIGHT side. All the 48" decks have this on the LEFT side. Of course, the gage wheel bar is another difference.

Thanks all for the help.i can't believe that not adding the hyphen would not allow me to find

the manual.model # is listed on the deck with no hyphen.

      Cracked 42 inch rear discharge
      By PAguy
      Hello gents! 
      I find myself with a question for the forum before I go down the path of ripping my deck apart in the middle of the season. 
       
      I have a 42 inch rear discharge 78350 that seems to have developed a crack at the center spindle (photo attached). At first I thought I had unbalanced blade issue bc the deck will vibrate something fearce. Long story short took it off got everything sharp and freshly greased. Started it up and it had the vibration again that reverberates through the deck. Now it's not as as bad as before but at the wrong angle or first starting it just vibrates loudly. So looked around and found the crack at the center spindle. 
       
      Debating if a simple weld would be sufficient for this crack or it would need more extensive repair? I don't weld myself but before I bothered the guy that farms the property thought I would ask here for thoughts if someone has had this issue since I was not seeing something in the forum. 
       
      Appreciate your guys help and thoughts.

      67 Lawn Ranger Mower Deck Blades
      By MSBiker
      Well it looks like I'm out of luck. I have been looking for blades for my Lawn Ranger and having zero luck. I have tried Wheel Horse part numbers 7908, 7909. Toro part numbers 8777, and 53322 and no one has anything like this. I was thinking about doing a cut down, but finding right hand and left hand blades seems to be the problem. 
      Anyone making blades, constructing blades, got a work around, etc? My blades are usable, but that is about it.

      Is my mower deck set up wrong?
      By BrianKoch
      Gentlemen,
       
      I’m having trouble with getting my deck to raise up and lock and I think it might have to do with the deck being incorrectly set up. 
       
      Based on the picture, does my mower deck look incorrectly positioned? That is, should the pivoting support bar be positioned above or below the wheel support pin? 
       
      Brian
