Wheelhorse 312 8 transaxle bracket cracked
Handy Don replied to Wheelhorse3128's topic in Transmissions and transaxles
I grooved and then welded the cracks from both sides but added the reinforcement plate on the forward side of the F-plate because I didn’t want to consider any drive train mods. When welding, be sure to use good sequencing and cooling practices to avoid overheating any small area and causing either the F-plate or the reinforcement to warp. -
Those look like the blades off of my sister in law's mower! She had a brand new MTD tractor and insisted on lowering the deck as much as possible and going as fast as it could go. Ran over tree roots and folded the deck under itself and bent the blades. My brother in law managed to get it warranted but they said don't come back. She did it again and I'll pulled the deck back into shape. She did it a 3rd time and he got the front of the deck reinforced. Then she hit the roots again and the tractor stopped dead and tossed her off. She finally got the message

No Pullstart Pot, and I counted at least 3 Cubs that had to be towed from the field before I departed. Maybe they should start one! Pretty much straight down I-39 for you guys! I got the ignition kit system ordered from eBay and new plug wires. I'm just going to tear it down to the crankshaft and replace everything! I had the same thing happen on my 520-H last winter while pushing snow. It completely died and I could not get it running again. https://ebay.io/m/fViMI8

I think you are finally catching on, now put up a very large sign saying "NO MORE LOANS".

Will probably just add a 5mm thick plate so will be able to move stuff back 5 mm I think -

Dont forget to allow for the longer wheelbase if u go with plate between trans and frame, think shifter location and such. -

That's what I'm thinking as the belt I have is too long anyways as I swapped the pulley to get more speed and the belt I got was too long so I put a idler pulley on that was supposed to be temporary while i got a shorter belt but it works well so I left it on -

Whichever ever side you decide to add plate it may still require longer bolts. Ive never seen one with a plate on trans side (because of belt length), but may be a bunch of um done that way? -
just going to throw this out there.i'm near lock haven pa was wondering if you would be in delivering for a fee

Why the need for longer bolts? If you are thinking of adding a plate to the transmission side of the F-Plate, that will cause the drive belt to need to be lengthened. -
Guess I may have confused yours with another post that said it had no hour meter. The drawing looked like the regulator was external, I don't have a B&S so just going by the diagram It seems the regulator could be the problem. Section 7 of the service manual shows seven different regulators so you will be best off pulling the flywheel cover on both engines to see what you have. There are also trouble shooting and testing methods in this section.

Busy day yesterday. As usual, several of our neighbors helped me pull our dock out of the water and get it on our trailer. It usually takes about six people, and at least a dozen of our neighbors showed up. A few days ago, I and our neighbors got together and pulled three of their docks out of the water. Removing and installing the docks has become a regular biannual neighborhood 'event.' Here are four of my neighbors helping out, piloting our dock down from our place with our 6 hp outboard for propulsion, and then floating it onto our trailer. We had nice weather and a rising tide, so there was very little current in the river, which always makes it easier to remove or install the dock. Here's the dock back home and sitting on our trailer, As always, I used one of our little tractors, in this case my New Holland (aka, blue Wheel Horse), to shuttle the dock paraphernalia back and forth between our house and the dock. Still more prep work to do in the garages and yard before winter.

I have two clevis hitches both have two holes, they are around one inch apart. Don't know how much more lift that will give.

If the barrels were empty, that would have been downright cruel... "Drinkin' buttermilk thru the week, whiskey on a Sunday..."

Question and Advice on D520Lxi for Front Blade!
OoPEZoO replied to Darrell1958's topic in Implements and Attachments
Took some measurements and pics for you yesterday Center of rear axle bar to center linkage hole is 17 1/2" Center of rear axle bar to pivot point for the blade adjustment is 28 1/2" Center of rear axle bar to blade pivot bolt is 70 1/4" Take into account that was all done with a tape measure and eyeballs, but I spent the day yesterday making a new pivot arm and works perfectly. Today, I'm hoping to have time to replace the original adjustment rod with a newly made rod with heim joints instead of 90 degree bends on the end. Just waiting for a new thread die to show up. BTW.....if anyone ever needs one of these adjustment arms, supposedly the New Holland dealers still have a few in stock. I cross referenced the original Toro part numbers to the New Holland parts a few months ago. I have a friend who works at our big local dealer here in PA and she ran the numbers through their system. Last we spoke, they supposedly had 2 in stock. NH part number for the adjustment arm is TR104D5022D03. I almost bought one, but decided to try and make one myself out of scrap I had sitting around. -
OK, you have a 1992 312 which was born with a 116338 ignition switch. You can buy one for about thirty five bucks, plug it in and be done or you can screw around with the wireing and hope you don't fry the magneto. Your tractor, your choice.

Interesting Machine
sqrlgtr replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Is that another "Bar Straightening" spot. -
Actually, I do have the hour meter. The old motor doesn't have an external rectifier. We'll see what happens after a re-wire.

I think you are onto something here! Just have to get a slot hitch for the other tractor and then I can make the connector slot-specific! The other path is to try making a lower hole on the arm of the sleeve hitch to see if that gives us enough range.

He may have cut the trees and then moved on to Cheese Curd Land. Babe didn't do ditches, she just hauled logs!

Pictures of mechanical stuff needed!!

No, was an 8 that came on a C-81 I picked up in the spring. -
You guys think whatever you want to but I remember reading something at one point that Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox actually built that.

October 26, 1825, The Erie Canal opens, connecting the Great Lakes with the Atlantic Ocean via the Hudson River. Governor DeWitt Clinton of New York, the driving force behind the project, led the opening ceremonies and rode the canal boat Seneca Chief from Buffalo to New York City. Work began on the waterway in 1817. Teams of oxen plowed the ground, but for the most part the work was done by immigrants, among them Irish diggers who had to rely on primitive tools. They were paid $10 a month, and barrels of whisky were placed along the canal route as encouragement. West of Troy, 83 canal locks were built to accommodate the more than 500-foot rise in elevation. After more than two years of digging, the 363-mile Erie Canal from Albany to Buffalo, was opened by Governor Clinton.
