Wheelhorse vendors I Need 856 ignition. Kohler 181. Has points.
pfrederi replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
If the heavy black wires go directly to the Battery and Starter/Generator A terminal Wheelhorse parts and More has one that should work. What is wrong with your current switch https://wheelhorsepartsandmore.com/product/4988-7263-starter-generator-key-switch/ -

Mike'sHorseBarn replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
That's not the original switch, does yours have a solenoid anywhere? -
Depends on the brand and area of the country.

Same here. I've tried AGs with no chains. NEVER AGAIN. We have just enough tilt to the area being plowed that there's no "bite" without chains.

Yes not very bright in todays LED standard's, but probably pretty good in 1940 standard's. Would be nice to know how a WWII combat Army Medic in Europe in 1944 wound up with a Navy Survival light. I figured he would have used it to treat wounded soldiers after dark.

Start Gen repair and pulley removal tips?
peter lena replied to Sparky-(Admin)'s topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
@ sparky solid vertical mount for gen , maybe a couple f WONDER BARS , if they can remove mower deck spindle pulleys , that equal double leverage pull point might just do it , don't forget lucas green chassis grease has a 550 degree drop point also polyurea , anti sling rated , not had a failure or related bearing whine noise , in all my pto driven attachments. pete -

FLtractor posted a topic in Wheel Horse Electrical
Morning, Wondering if any Wheelhorse vendors have an ignition for an 856, orignal Kohler 181 with points. Battery. Attached picture of the ignition currently on there. -
If you are referring to horizontal rotation degree position, my opinion is they are ok. Vertical height is mainly fixed by spindle shaft and a spacer washer. The cut height of course is a bit affected that way. A bent down/up blade, usually can kinda eye ball that, sloppy spindle mounting, or bad bearings would show up in cut appearance as well as bent or damaged gauge height wheels. Anyway it looks like it has all going good!!! "Have a great day every day"

It could happen. Buying a quality pump minimizes the risk. -
Thanks for the input there is a 2 stage on the front of that 520hc. I’m really enjoying it. Having some small problems but getting there! Loosing spark occasionally that I will soon remedy and general maintenance. Are the rear suitcase weights rare or hard to come by?

Seat Time Job, Would You DO It ?
peter lena replied to JoeM's topic in non tractor related discussion
@JoeM gotta love those mogs ! like a portable powerhouse ! gearing reduction to incredible degrees , their are some swiss sites that are scary , plowing blind , can easily find them on line , british tree trimers , make a winch , to tree sling snag set up . so they can easily pull down heavy branches , snoop around , unimog sites, pete -
Fresh owner of 312-8 here . This is my RD 42" deck,Are these blades in proper position? (Deck was cleaned already, this is first pic before cleaninig ). I have not sharpen blades yet but I will.

@oldlineman love that type of plowing , experimented with MOWER GUARD . GRAPHITE SPRAY ON MY PLOW BLADE , last summer ? let the hot sun bake it on , forgot all about it , till recent snow plowing , the immediate response I got was the SNOW BLADE SLIDE OFF . SEAMED TO BARELY LOAD THE BLADE , looking things over , there was no snow stuck on the blade , regularly BACK PLOW , to my farthest edge , that gives me a place to plow to , thats empty . if I were to try it now , would use a heat lamp on cleaned blade , made to protect mower decks , made by slip plate , might even spray my snow bower walker . pete

@KeithRogers did you drain / change the trans oil ? regularly check mine on my tractors , always top off tank , sta bil fuel treatment , engine oil , statis , that trans drain , should also include a drive around with a flushing agent , like hi mileage ATF fluid and put some time / miles on it , use every gear and range , also raise up front on jack stands for more drainage , new shift boot ? just regular maint for me , no issues or problems , start a regular look / see for anything , ex rust running out of a neglected movement point ? penetrating oil spray first , for creeping , like aerosol red grease , ex tube for detail spray , have no lubrication starved movement points , pete

I agree on possible, but don’t recall any posting from anyone who’s experienced it. -
With the pin and the USN engraving, makes me think it was a lamp to be pinned to clothing as a locator akin to the strobes on emergency lift jackets these days.

This is one my father brought home from Europe during WWII, don't know the history, but he was a combat medic in Europe from June 9, 1944 till the end of the war in Europe. Wish I would have ask more question when he was here,( he passed Feb.18th 2018 at age 94) but we only found it when cleaning out house after my mother's passing last Feb. 9th age 99. Bob
