I'll give that a shot before it gets loaded up! If it's that simple, it would be a shame not to give it a try.

I was 4 hours from finishing the four quadrant model testing of the Raccoon Mountain reversible pump turbine project. This involved about 40 hours of instrument calibration and testing that I did not want to lose, so I stayed and finished the project. When I left work, about 15 mile from TMI, the streets in York were deserted. I thought, what a nice drive home with no rush hour traffic.

Is a 16hp Magnum bigger than a 12hp? I have a 12 in a C-175 -
856: where to bolt throttle cable for governor
FLtractor replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
To understand what you did.. did you rotate the metal governor wheel so the metal arm protruding from it is in the position of yours.. where you secured the throttle cable to? Also if that’s exactly what you did, how does the metal protruding arm stay where it is In your photo. Thank you for prompt reply -
The Nuclear Power Plant I later became an operator for was under construction at the time of TMI. Some anti-nukes held a demonstration and released helium filled balloons at the site with messages that said this would be the fall-out zone in the event of an accident. As the balloons were released the wind shifted and all of them floated out over the ocean. During my twenty years as an operator we studied incidents large and small including TMI as part of our training. The operators at TMI 2 were attempting to manually overcome the situation rather than allowing the automatic safety systems to trip the reactor and make up for the coolant that was being lost through a malfunctioning valve. Training at that time was not as intense as it became in subsequent years. Though Nuclear Power lost some of its luster 47 years ago the benefits of improvements made in safety and training are undeniable.

Brockport Bill replied to mhvond's topic in Implements and Attachments
you may want to check the compatibility of the deck in this photo with your model tractor -- i'm not sure that lift carriage assembly is match for your tractor? I would ask others on the forum here ?? as an fyi - WH does have a 42 and 36 inch rear discharge model in addition to the 42 side model -- so depending on local availability you have other options than just the 42 side discharge -- i just am not sure the deck photo is a match for that tractor? -
I'm interested in the whole lot, If this is still available you can contact me at Ddarby544@ yahoo.com. Please and thank you.

I had the same image until the Amish bought the 36 farm next to me for growing produce. The first step they took was to locate enough water to irrigate the 25 cleared fields. Instead of dousing with copper rods or a forked peach branch, a high-tech engineering firm was hired that used seismograph to map out the water table under the farm. Two locations were selected and 400 ft wells were drilled. The water is lifted from the wells and pushed thru the irrigation piping without using any pumps. Liquid fertilizer is injected into the water as required during the growing season. A diesel powered air compressor is used to power the waters air lift system. https://ebrary.net/121258/environment/lift_pumps_principle_working_lift_pumps That one compressor is also used to power air motors that operate some power tools and a generator that is used to charge batteries and the electric fences. Most of the equipment is wheel driven, but some of the equipment, sprayer, brush hog,, fork lift, grain drill, has battery start Honda engines. Propane is used for lighting and refrigeration. Wood is used for home heating and cooking. Coal is used to heat the greenhouse. With the exception of the fork lift that is used to load and unload trucks, all of the equipment is moved by the owners horses. Outside trucking companies are used to deliver and spread the lime and fertilizer and to haul the produce to auction. The only connection to the GRID is a land line phone located 200 yds from the house in a phone booth. Although they accept any help from my wifi. After the first years harvest I was watching a cover crop grain being drilled. He stopped and showed me the sorgum seed bag that said do not feed to horses and asked me what that meant. I said it probably meant the seed was coated to help germination, but I would check it. Goggling sorgum for horse feed, I learned sorgum can cause health problems for horses. I printed the info and delivered it to the farm. He was very careful to keep the horses away from the sorgum and never planted it again. Another time he came to me asking if I had seen his dog Ginger, a beautiful Husky/Shepard. I had not, but we drove around all roads in the area around the farm and I drove the same route for several days with no sign of Ginger. About a week later he came to my door and asked if I could contact the ASPCA . I invited him in and we got on the lap top looking for a phone number which I gave him. Then I clicked on pictures of lost dogs and luckily found a picture of Ginger. I offered to take him to pick up the dog, but he declined saying his hired driver would take him. Two days later I saw the dog back on the farm. I am thankful the Amish had deep enough pockets to out bid the developers when this farm was sold at auction 6 years ago. I know not all Amish make good neighbors nor do all English, but I am thankful for mine.

Ever Seen a Zerk Installed at a 45-degree Angle?
gwest_ca-(File Mod) replied to hotajax's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
The set screw replacing the grease fitting is a good idea when using sealed bearings because if a grease gun was applied the extremely high pressure they develop will force the bearings out of the hub past whatever holes the hub on the axle. Have seen bearings with just an outer seal - those can be greased and need to be. -

What's in His Mirror ???
WHX?? replied to stevebo-(Moderator)'s topic in non tractor related discussion
Sent ole Blackie down the road today. Kinda sad as I bought her back in '95 brand new. Brought my second born home from the hospital in it. Dino splilt his wine in it. Cab corners gone and lot of rust but hopefully keep him out of trouble and he's real good mechanical. Sold it to @jeremi3210 's boy Jacob for a buck. Figured what the heck only get a couple hundred for on market. He's a good kid and due to get his DL the end of next month. 'Sides he does a lot of work for me at plow day and camp. Now i can really boss him around! Certain stipulation tho are grades in school and no more missing or tardy! It's more than road worthy yet but Jer got a brand new 10k trailer and wanted to take it's 🍒 Really a nice rig. 20' and very wide. Get a few GTs on it. -

856: where to bolt throttle cable for governor
Racinbob replied to FLtractor's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I did this so I had a longer throttle lever throw.
