I'm glad I could take part in getting this gem to the home it deserves. -
Side shot Saturday... AND SUNDAY !

It certainly did @Ed Kennell !! I thank you again for helping me acquire that beautiful tractor! I still think it has probably not but a few hours on it. Paint still on the muffler and nubs on the tires! You can tell when you drive it, it feels like brand new. It will spend the winter in my warm basement with some other C-Series. -
And it’s a real PITA to change the PTO belt if the deck is on the tractor. I had to disconnect the deck from the Mid-Mount Tach-A-Matic, then unhook the rear leveling adjustment rod to be able to lift the carriage high enough for the belt to clear the spindle. Also had to slack the deck belt with a pry bar on the tensioning pulley shaft. It’s definitely way more difficult than changing belts on a 42”-48” decks.

I'll check that out and see what result I get. I have just done the AC voltage test on the 2 leads coming off the stator so far and only got 4 volts (should be 20+). I see where there are shops that refurbish discontinued stators for motorcycles and ATV's. I am going to check and see if they can redo this one. Anyone here gone this route?

Thank you I just sent him a PM.

That C-101 slept in my barn for a couple months. -
Removing Mower deck pulleys
Brockport Bill replied to Brockport Bill's topic in Implements and Attachments
bought theHeat Induction tool with the hope it would heat the deck pulley collar sufficiently to pry it off -- sadly it did not work -- tried on both outside deck pulleys heating them and then 2 pry bars to get them off the spindle shafts -- no luck -- very disappointed -- apprently the corrosion has "rust welded" them onto spindle shaft - no alternative but to cut them off - sucks!! -

Shuffling a few tractors around before winter sets in, the C-101, 418-C and 418-8 were in my enclosed trailer. So I took them out for a quick check up! -
Mostly to the cell phones. In all seriousness.... when doing ANY work with the arms overhead it really is important to limit the motions and time spent.
-
There is a difference between moving and damaging. Loading the wood into the splitter is a good workout by itself. Splitting by hand is damaging to the hands and shoulders and cell phones.
-
Which in your case puts both hands at risk of injury.
-
If neither leg of the stator output is shorted to ground, and there is continuity at low resistance between the legs, then there is an internal short in the stator winding.

Did you hear the one about the roof? Never mind, it's over your head.

What have you done to your Wheel Horse today?
ebinmaine replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Seconded. Just changing the work load or even something simple like engine angle will make a balance gear noise change or stop. -

I figured leaf pickup was a good job for the 502 that I recently got from @WHX?? -
Betcha y’all didn’t know 312

He was hilarious... - Yesterday

I'm worried I will fall down the stairs one day... I'd take steps to avoid it, but that's sort of the problem.

And two for the Gipper. -
3hour sit this evening. No deer, but this critter stumbled around in the grass field for 10 minutes. He appeared disorientated, stumbling and walking in circles. He either has a medical issue or chugged too much fermented watermelon juice. VID_20261108_164315060~2.mp4

Good discussion.. Don and Garry.

Ah, that could be it. Aligning the deck belt to match the height of the other spindles without raising the overall height above the deck.
-
I just did. Thanks. Put it here as well in case any one of our electrical experts know why it might be putting out voltage (not totally dead) but not the 20+ AC volts per spec.
