Couple pics of the 1974 C160-8 Cinnamon Horse and Mackissic chipper shredder at work today. The one with the tractor was the very beginning of the first pile. The one not showing the tractor is the end of the second pile. I would say a good strong 4+ hours of work today, off n on. Quite a lot of chips produced. Have to be very very careful. The interior hammers will suck in the material at extremely high speed. But the outside blade, you have to push the material into it. It's quite an extreme workout to operate this thing. This pile is about the size of the tractor. Also, Jaxon was here for a visit today. Him & BBT worked hard, and played hard. -
Tractor supply tractor tire question

That’s the best decision. You’ll have two matching tires that will last years -
Reworked C Series Isolation Mounts
ri702bill posted a topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Work continues on the C81 I picked up last July. Three of the four shaker plate isolation mounts were bad - one far worse than the rest - the steel center sleeve was completely broken out of the rubber. All 4 were questionable on the parts donor too. The fix I decided on was to reuse the eight steel flange shells and discard the rubber & sleeves. I made up four make & four female aluminum inserts - they pilot into each other when assembled. An 8 inch length of 1-1/2 diameter aluminum set me back about 14 bucks. Additional centering rings were made to pilot into the steel plate. Not having CNC capability on my lathe, it was fairly labor intensive to turn up the aluminum parts, but the result almost looks like the originals when I did the powder coating... -
Yes. 6203-12- RS. I have one in my desk drawer for just the occasion someone asks!

Interesting. Thanks for the info

You can fuse it at 15 amp and be assured it will last forever. -
That’s great to know. I found this one at Ace that looks vintage but no cover and not waterproof so the search continues, the dark illumination is pretty cool sounding https://www.acehardware.com/departments/automotive-rv-and-marine/automotive-accessories/interior-automotive-accessories/8567547?store=07479&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20158972939&gbraid=0AAAAADtqLJG3y3ud_SMRESBvCAojL3JEh&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrYC3-_7UkwMVTEn_AR06gwLYEAQYAiABEgIQXvD_BwE

How Do You Get Under Your Deck to Change Blades?
hotajax replied to hotajax's topic in Implements and Attachments
I use one of those devices for chopping through multi floral rose. -
I don't know how many amps the sprayer draws but I have run 4/5hrs continuously, only break was filling tank back up, without any problems. It is "plumbed" with 12ga wire, also has inline fuse but have never had to replace it since I have been using it (probably going on 10 years now). Only other thing I've used it for is a spotlight occasionally.

Ok sorry

@19richie66https://www.google.com/search?q=wheel+horse+mule+drive+bearing&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS866US866&oq=wheel+horse+mule+drive+bearing+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvb , might help , also personally look for any bearing with wide rubber side grease shields , carefully remove , flat pocket screwdriver or small putty knife, wipeout original lube , usually ceiling fan , grease . thats why those bearings whine / and fail , lucas geen chassis grease X-TRA HD , 550 deg flash point , polyurea rated , so it stays there , have that conversion in all my deck spindles as well , no noise or failures since change out . make the problem stop , pete

I believe that is a 6203-12 bearing I can double check tomorrow my pic did not show a clear number. 40mm od 3/4 id. 12 mm thick I am pretty sure it is the same as the 3/4" deck berings. snap ring

Sleeving a drive pulley
JoeM replied to rmaynard's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Looks like a 4 inch diameter. I'll be up at the shop in am, I can get some pics and I think I have the PTO sleeve also. -
Have you ever had any issues with socket not having enough amps to power any devices ?

I blew some paint on a hood I got from a member here. Original had tree damage. I will shoot the grill satin black when red is good and dry. This was a Toro black stripe hood but will become a burgundy stripe hood. I power washed and serviced the little 36 inch deck. The tractor will go to camp for summer. -

We put the deck on the Commando and did the spring greasing, then the boy did the first mow of the season. Then we used it to move five big wagon fulls of gravel around where we are making parking for the trailers. I still have to reseed half the yard from this winter's construction project. -

Bob, that looks like it would negatively impact steering performance, and probably make the cut height very high. -
Where is that pulley used??

Ed Kennell replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
First mowing this year. Used the 310-8 and Trac Vac to clean up all the winter duff. Did my lawn and all the right o ways around the farm. Then paid a visit to my neighbors green house for flowers. -
I have a mule drive that came off of something I aquired over time. It’s the only one I have seen with a cast pulley. Trying to find out what bearing it takes. Anyone have anything on it? Pulley number 101762. I have looked but found nothing on it. Thanks in advance.
