What have you done "WITH" your Wheel Horse
MainelyWheelhorse replied to rjg854's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Today, I finished up mowing with the 312-8 and weedwacking the Town Fire Station. I also did some mowing and weedwacking at home as well. In one spot in my lawn, this big burdox bush had grown up in the month or so since I mowed. I was surprised after chipping away at it with the mower for a bit. it took the whole plant out with no problem. The picture is kind of deceiving, as it’s chest to eye level at my height and I’m 5’10” so it wasn’t small. -
Many of today's "songs" ,if you can call them that, I would just as soon NOT hear the words too.
-
The last shifter I took out done the same thing. I got lucky and was able to get it out though funny thing was it wasnt even that tight in trans and still don't know why it broke off unless it was just about rusted in 2. Not much room to work with without splitting trans from frame, only way I know you could get to it if it's being a booger to get out.
-
I have had 2 mochines do this (857 and 701) luckily, I caught both before they had gotten real bad. I went back with rebuilt Mech pumps but have used Electric pumps on others and have had great luck with them. If you don't mind not being a "traditionalist" electric is only way to go IMO.
-
The set screw broke at this point. The right side is in the donut of the shifter, stuck in place. If that doesn’t make sense I will send a close up tonight of what it looks like currently. The other half is still in place in the transmission where it’s meant to screw in. So I can account for both parts, and don’t have concern that it fell into the transmission.
-
I haven't tried it YET but next best thing would be removing old decal and get some new ones from @Vinylguy on here.
-
A little late to the party but, I like the NGK B6L plug myself a close second is the Autolite 216. Hard to beat the tsc belts never had any trouble with them.
-
My biggest concern at first glance is/ are the cuts in the existing decals. The edges are bad enough... the cuts are curled UP so they'll be prone to inviting whatever solution is used.
-
Hefty, Hefty, Hefty, not Wimpy, Wimpy, Wimpy. Ive seen some similar looking hubs on sumin but don't remember what they were on. May have been a Power King like @oliver2-44 mentioned above.
-
I hope someone has a solution I have a couple decals that has been sprayed over also.
-
Eric, that was my first thought, if any remover solution gets to the glue it is game over for the decal.
- Today
-
The attached thread has very good photos of the part and pieces we are looking at here. Take a look at them and let us know what you think.
-
Ah, the Elephant in the room..... where did the broken tip of the full dog point set screw that holds the donut actually go to?? Not into the Unidrive I hope...You have to find it.
-
Yes try it on a small spot first to make sure
-
Their all junk ... just somes better junk than others ...
-
Are you saying the tip of the dog point broke off and is in the donut? Very unusual if so and even then should be fairly loose in it.
-
Something I learned a few weeks ago: Acetone resistant gloves are great if handy but I don't use any. I wash my hands when done. Definitely safety glasses/ goggles.
-
Are you sure it’s a setscrew? Mine were either welded or had roll pins.

By the way, the delay relay goes in the 24v wiring between the thermostat and the compressor control. Think of it as delaying the call for cooling before it reaches the compressor. In my system, with zone air dampers, the calling zone opens and the blower starts as normal. Only the “cold” is delayed! 😁 -
The set screw that hold the shifter usually stays in the collar at the top of the transmission. It is not threaded into the shifter, it just pokes into a hole in the shifter. There is another set screw that holds the donut onto the shifter you should not have to remove it.
-
More pictures please. Those hubs remind me of Economy Power King hubs I'll check a PK parts tractor I have.
-
Right below the 2 levers is the vent cap / fill.
-
My Kwik- Way loader I bought with around 20 hours on it. I believe mine had a black plastic cap with possibly a vent hole in it from the factory. I have pics but not sure you can see a hole / vent ? It also called for ATF Fluid.
-
Not venting the reservoir will cause issues. Try removing it and covering with something to keep bugs & dirt out like a filter cloth.
