I'm not sure where the hoodstand comes into play, since the HY-2 and the HY-3 both use the same mounting bracket, WH P/N 4816. The mounting bracket, however, is one of the parts I'm missing. Worst case scenario for the lift quadrant is I fab one from a manual lift lever (easier to find). I have the correct snowplow bracket with the tabs for the cylinder. I believe I can fabricate a box for the ignition switch and ammeter. Lastly is the pully for the crankshaft (2 1/4" dia.) part number 4811

So what would you say it’s worth with all the modifications, as a workhorse. If it does in fact, run cut and drive as seller states and tires hold air good.

to the You can place an ad in our classified wanted section. You can also search in the deck manuals section to see what is available. The Trac Vac systems with a separate engine are also available.

I wish I was closer and could help you fix the wiring on that 520. I enjoy a challenge.

Need help identifying a 48" Toro WH mower deck
Bill D replied to ldm2pe's topic in Implements and Attachments
It looks like a deck for an XT series tractor. You should be able to make it fit l, but it may require some welding and the deck carrier assembly from a 300/400/500 series deck. -
Throttle Cabel positions,seat pan and footrest suggest 1960. Way overpriced IMHO. Hood chopped and not original motor hurts it bad. Looks like mowing deck might be a 61? I do like the rear tires though..
-
That is an odd duck for sure!

Evening, Local marketplace listing.. what model? 63,64 year based on seat pan? What’s it worth? Seller states run drive cuts mows. No other info or pictures. Selling asking $600.00

Thank you all for the help!! Gets irritating trying to figure out how to do something while swatting mosquitoes and no clue what you're doing!!!! Still kicking the idea around of using that 520 to upgrade the 195 😁. Love the C series -
The commando 8 is alive and done it bought some memories back driving it around today

Evening, Wondering if anyone has added one of these to 856 or similar wheelhorse without significant modifications.. or perhaps a curved bumper similar to ford N series with ball on front.

OK its not Front end Friday but....

Would anyone have one of the old style voltage regulators that have the screws to adjust the voltage?

A small church in our association is needing some work done to it's one hundred year old building. I was asked to lead a team to start repairs. Helpers has been pretty sparse so most of it was done by me. I didn't attempt to work on the gable ends without someone there to help with the 28' ladder. There are three pictures. One is the back of the church after I scraped the paint. Two is finished paint on the back--window is still needing paint removed from glass.--Helpers don't seem to have steady hand to cut-in paint but I'm appreciative of the help. Notice how far from level the side room's ridge is. The 2x4 rafters on the main building probably have an 8" (or more) belly. The last two paint jobs were done by folks who left overspray on the windows and storm windows. A church member believes it has been fifteen or more years since last paint job. The window sashes were almost bare of paint so it's likely been 25 or more years since they had any freshening up. Three is me power washing the front of the building. I scraped the paint, Power washed, spot primed bare wood then top coated. The helpers mainly focused on windows and yard work and helping me move ladders and tools. In addition to painting, I've made several repairs. From replacing siding ( that I made out of cedar), making new metal window drip cap, replacing three window sills. I'm doing my best to make the building more resistive to water invasion. I found it interesting that none of the windows has sash locks. In other words, until the storm windows were installed, all a person had to do was raise a window to gain entry. Interesting side note: The church is getting new roof because of hail damage. The roofing supplier loaded the roof pretty much at the the top of the valley where the side room is attached to the main roof. With the belly in the main ridge, If I was the roofer, I probably wouldn't have allowed the supplier to load in one location only. At least spread it over a larger area. A member and I measured the ceiling to floor height after the shingles were placed upon the roof. Once the new roof is installed. We'll measure to see if there was any deflection in the ceiling to floor measurement.

I wouldn’t suggest consuming any of the guts, in any way… other than the heart, and liver. Those are yummy

Lots of stuff. Kind of sad, though - I started putting summer away. Put the pontoon on the trailer & unloaded the stuff off of it in preparation for winter storage. I pulled the pedal boat out, washed it, and put it in its winter quarters. Opened the fill valves on the paddle boards in preparation for winter hibernation. On the up side, i took a kayak out around the lake, and got some Wheel Horse seat time moving the pontoon trailer and pulling the pedal boat up the hill from the lake. Still, the empty dock at sunset is a sad sight.

Happy birthday @pfrederi

The way it looks , that would be my guess. These were the only pics in the add.

Happy birthday Mr. Frederick! Thanks for all you do for the community!

Yup. My choke is not connected to the lever on the dash. The current cable routing does not work with a horizontal choke shaft & i haven't gotten around to figuring out a solution. It gets started with the hood open, so i can reach the choke lever on the carb. It usually fires right up, allowing me to open the choke & close the hood. Just some tdle thoughts on your running issues, in no particular order: Have you cleaned the points? Easily done by pulling a dollar bill through the closed points several times - best if the key is off. What about the point gap? I've had luck with new plugs sometimes. How about the fuel pump? I've put an electric pump on mine. Gas tank been cleaned? How old are the fuel lines? How old is the fuel filter? If you clean the carb, but nothing upstream from it, crude will return to the carb. A word of caution - starting fluid is mutch too violent for our small engines. I use carb cleaner instead, others keep a spray bottle of gas for this purpose. Good luck and have fun. When I took those pictures last night, I discovered a puddle of oil unde the tractor - by stepping in it. I'm suspecting a bad crank seal. Again, I haven't had the time to pull the tins and flywheel to check it.

Went ahead and cut a piece of schedule 80 pipe and put a washer on both ends. Took out majorly of the float but, it raises and lowers. Didn't put the spring on and plan on using heavy duty caster wheels instead of the skids. Have to find drive belt since 520 and C195 are different. Was going to give away the thrower but, the neighbor asked if he can use it this winter and in return, he will keep it in his heated garage.... -
Once again, I have so much to learn, Grasshopper. My new arrows are bullets. Until you add a broadhead. I still have 4 good arrows from last year. They are green, and fly great still, with my red lighted nocks. Today might have been a costly lesson to learn. I could have purchased a 6 pack of nocks on the jungle site and used my 4 remaining arrows. Instead, I spent $120 on a pack of arrows I don’t enjoy watching fly all wonky. But I’m ready to hunt on Thursday, weather permitting.

Looking for more info on an attached bagger for a 48" deck. Seen a couple photos of the setup, but would like to obtain one if possible. I have a 520-H that is in pretty good condition and so is the deck, but would like a bagger option for fall leaves here in MI. Don't really know where to search one out if there any out there. Any help very much appreciated!!
