    Stuck pulley on 48 inch deck

    @cafoose what are you using for grease in those bearings ? do any of the related pulleys , whine . with engagement ? the more hot sun deck time the better , prop mine right up to longest time of day , good to finish the season , with a final cleaning touch up and oil soak , then propped up to a wall stud with a screw in eye bolt , heavy extension spring , make up a big S hook shape from 1/4 " steel rod . , mine are 8- 10 inches long that will let you , very easily prop up and secure that deck , with bottom side out for regular inspection status , been doing this for many years now , with no problems at all , glad you are doing something , pete

    Make sure the governor arm is not loose on the shaft you should adjust the governor per the manual.

    1984 GT1100 plow parts diagram

    This is the blade sold back in 1984 for your tractor but any blade from 1973-2012 for the long frame tractors is basically the same so you could have one of many.

    K241 governor not working

    Been a while since I posted here but I ran into an issue. Recently my daily mower that was a lil toro 8-32 bit the dust so rather than getting a replacement this late in the mowing season I just decided to put my c100 into service which I only ever used for knocking down high weeds or pulling a leaf sweeper. I rebuilt the motor and transmission in 2017 and I never had any trouble beyond needing to clean the points every spring. Today I was just about done with my 1 ½ acre yard and the engine began racing to the moon on the level and bogging terrible on gentle slopes. I was only able to finish mowing by barely giving it any throttle as the rpm kept increasing and was only controlled by the effort of mowing. As soon as I'd exit a run the rpm would skyrocket if I didn't throttle down completely.

    Wheel A Matic Fluid

    Is everything put together right in here? The springs are in spring bind and if I go out any further they'll rub on the motion mechanism. I'm wanting to fix this before my new cam plate comes in/gets installed

    1984 GT1100 plow parts diagram

    Welcome! Got a model number for the plow? That would allow you to search in the Manuals - Implements section for the Exploded diagram & parts list. Is it a simple 1/2" diameter steel rod with a 90 degree bend at each end?? If so many of us (myself included) make a better version using a straight piece of 1/2" round stock and thread the ends 1/2-20 for a pair of Heim Joints. MUCH smoother feel, no slop.

    What did you do today?

    That was years ago. Back about 7 or 8 years maybe?? She bought the one we had been using. It was a beast as well. 80s vintage commercial splitter that was modified by a local logger for splitting the butt ends of lower stumps. Trina's daughter will get that now that Trina has moved up to the dual action splitter.

    1984 GT1100 plow parts diagram

    Looking for part # and where I can purchase the "blade control rod" for my 1984 GT1100 wheel horse. It broke off during last year's snowstorm and finally now getting a chance to prep for the coming winter.
  23. Ive owned mine for 6 years and it being my first wheel horse has not let me down for dirt/snow/everyday mowing activities. Mechanically speaking it has been a good machine.

    What engine is this?

    Got out there this morning and found some numbers. It's an HH35 3.5hp engine. Thanks, Dave

    What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?

    Don't forget the grommet, gasket, seal or whatever it's called today, that seals around the oil filter. I know that you are aware of that but I thought it might be a good time to remind others in this crowd. I do wonder why the oil filter is so far from center of the opening, it appears that the tins need to move back.

    314H cleanup and repair.

    Wire wheel in an angle grinder and a random orbit sander with 320 grit sandpaper on it. The paint was poorly applied by wheel horse so it came off fairly easily.
