Well, I've managed to split the rims. I think their next stop will be the e-tank. I soaked the bearings in some thinner and basically forgot about them for a couple weeks. Pulled them out and they seem like they will be just fine!

Unsure what I got but it's a story...

Great! How about an idea how to keep it from taking off on me? LoL 😂 I tried tightening the screws with springs that hold the plastic motion control and nothing. Flipping them over did nothing either. Holding the foot pedal down works but the parking brake -disconnect doesn't do anything, might be the belt is too tight..... -
The splitter has an electric spool valve, and a proximity sensor on the return. Hands free, auto return, auto stop. THE ORIGINAL OWNER’S design, I am just wise enough to be able to get spark today to follow along on this project, Here’s the thread

Toro Wheel Horse GT 550 Slow in High Gear
Pattyb replied to Pattyb's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
Thank you! We moved the eccentric to the correct position and according to Waze on my phone I was going 6mph on the flats. We can see play in the linkage but I hadn’t taken it apart enough for my husband to reach all of it. Since it’s November in upstate NY, I’m going to call this a win for now and revisit the linkage in the spring. Thanks again! - Today

What is the function of this pedal?

I bet if I write Fiskars on the side of this machine it’ll work twice as fast!

Found this belt routing decal on a 60" deck. Did any 60" decks have the PTO belt on the bottom pulley?

What kind of milk comes from a pampered cow? Spoiled milk. What's a sea monster's favorite lunch? Fish and ships. What do you call an alligator in a vest? An in-vest-i-gator. Why are pigs so bad at sports? They always hog the ball.

A newcomer looks around a packed church service and whispers to the usher, "Wow, there are a lot of good people here today." The usher chuckles and whispers back, "Oh, don't let the nice clothes fool you. This is just a massive support group for the spiritually clumsy."

According to St. Augustine— "the church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints." The bible verse that this is based on is : Mark 2:17, where Jesus says: "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners. Lot C is reserved for people who think their sins aren't bad enough to need God's forgiveness.

Nice! Only thing better would be the Horse leading A couple of Deere & Cubs! -
We had three channels but changing from one to another required someone going out to turn the pole mounted antenna. somehow that became my job, not too bad in the summer but in the winter I was quite satisfied with the two channels that would work with the same antenna position.

I knew you had a 520xi and figured there might be enough similarity that you would be able to help out. Looks like @oliver2-44 has the right information. -
What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
Handy Don replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Not necessarily, harmonic resonances are the combination of vibrations of different parts at different frequencies. That’s why some discerning ears listening to a three-key piano chord hear a fourth tone. -
@953 nut I'd like one of those too but it doesn't change the fact that our bodies NEED to move to stay healthy.

If it occurs to you to ask, are you eligible?

Good morning Horse Family! Road trip and storytime! I drove 8 hours round trip for this one. It was advertised as a Charger 12 Automatic but, that's not what is interested me. The seller, Mike, worked at a Wheel Horse dealer in Monee IL when he was 16 until he was 22. He seen a lot of tractors in his time and this one in particular had been traded in and motor overhauled. He went to the owner of the dealership and purchased it for his mother so she could mow the lawn and got the snowblower so she could clear the driveway. Purchased in 1974. She used it up until 2 years ago when it became too difficult to get on and off anymore so it sat. It's not pretty but, it's all there. Yes, it runs, yes it mows. Had a carb fire a few years ago and is charred but relatively unharmed. It will take off forward if you are not sitting on it holding the motion lever. Parking brake, hydrostatic disengagement not working. It has the K241 that runs well for burning oil (don't think it was changed often). Now, did this have headlights? I see there's two silver nubs on the side of the hood and a taillight. Is this a 1076? I can read the tag under the steering wheel. It will be steam cleaned and see how good the paint really is. The snowthrower is not doing so well. It's sat outside under a tree for 20 or more years and was sunk in the dirt. Stuck like a hedge post. Not even the idler pulley moves. But, in all, it's was worth the story to me and Claudia made me promise to take care of her kid. Still attached to it and glad it went to a collector. Please let me know if this had lights at one point and if this is in fact a 1076! Myself, I like the original work clothes but, it could be a candidate for a repaint of it doesn't clean up. By the way, I was sent the picture of the Wheel Horse parade tractor that was assembled in the dealership in Monee. Anyone remember seeing this? Sweet set up. Three were gear and one hydrostatic. The hydro pulled everything

Exercise is absolutely essential. I bought an axe this morning to go with my maul.

My furnace will burn both wood or coal, you guys just might convince me to order a few tons of coal.

The hydraulic cylinder came apart just by taking off the hoses and fitting and then tapping the ends off. Next chance I get I’ll clean it up, but at least that was easy.
