Thank you ,but I don't think this 420 will ever be as nice as @cleat 's resto's. I do put a lot of effort to bring the '' ROUGH 420'S '' back to a spot in WH history but, I just can't stand looking at the abused 420 and 520's that I have seen in pictures on this GREAT Red Square forum and try to do my part to ease the pain that has been inflicted on me, Seriously . Thanks

Now that makes sense. Super clean for a parts rig -
1054 Hydraulic Cylinder Not Functioning
953 nut replied to 1054 Project's topic in Implements and Attachments
If the cylinder isn't moving but the pump is developing pressure I would expect there would be some sound difference when the up-down lever is moved. -

LOL! This C-81 is a parts rig and I decided to strip it down today..trans will sit on a shelf as a share but I wanted fresh fluid in it before it gets stored away. -

I'm with you. I mean no,but yea,nope not really,but like yea I kinda get why you would, but why did you. Lmao yep Id have done the same so no room to talk on my part haha -
The 9 pin connector is melted on one terminal and was connected with a spade connector that is completely burnt. There's an extra toggle switch that was wired in an unknown circuit and four wires cut but marine type fuse holders poorly installed. I plan on soldering and heat shrinking to remedy situation. From what I gathered,it's 3 relays, ignition switch, 2 blade fuses, seat switch, PTO switch, low oil sensor, neutral safety, parking brake and air cleaner restriction light. All the red lights work but the volt meter, fuel gauge are not. Tach is gone but vacuum gauge is there. When I turn the key to start, I hear a relay clicking but no other noises. The main fuse has been hacked and wire nuts used to a burnt white wire..... Don't know if I should locate a harness or purchase a name brand multimeter. It's definitely worth saving and will be a rough start to a good tractor. You got a sharp looking machine and hopefully, this might polish!!!

You know Trina. You know how busy she always is. I can't possibly overstate how much she's been doing to care for the dog. -

So glad to hear she’s healing up! Dogs can get so embedded in our hearts, I know you and Trina will give her the best care -

Wow, that's a real shame. Things happen out of the blue. Being home, Meeha is in good hands. My daughter works part-time for a vet. She has seen a lot, and things like this are usually a 50/50 shot. Wanting to walk is a good sign. My current cat was hit by a snow plow. She was young. I said put her down, but the vet said "I'll fix her". And he did. She may have used up most of her nine lives though. I don't know how many lives a dog has, but I'm sending my good juju her way just in case there are a few more in there -
The 310-8 was bought with a push button start in place of key switch. Decided to install key switch. The 5 wire plug for the key switch doesn’t match the 103990 or the 103991 key switches available. Facing the 5 wire plug for the key switch, with the connection for the start wire at the top, the wire for the rectifier wire is on the lower left of the plug. The 1987/1988/early 1989 wiring diagram show the rectifier wire going to the 2nd row from the top start pin for the 103991 switch and not the bottom row like the 5 connector plug. The accessory pin on the 103991 key switch goes where the rectifier wire in the plug is. The kohler m wiring picture below is the existing wiring from the kohler m14 to the first connector. The picture leaves out the 5 wire plug for the key switch but it does show the rectifier going to the middle row per wire diagram. Pink wire hoes to voltmeter. What am I missing? Or How do I find a key switch that matches the plug? Clarifying questions welcome.

What have you done "WITH" your Wheel Horse
Handy Don replied to rjg854's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
I A hardy worker you are! I am SO glad to need only 15 minutes with the push mower and 25 minutes seat time to do a complete job mowing. Just as it starts to feel onerous, I’m done and can have a cold drink! -
Sorry not a wheelhouse but maybe same transmission! My new old Jacobsen 1200 Super Chief has Sundstrand 90-2029 Transmission! Its locked up and was hoping to find a manual or a starting point to start working on it! I just picked this up for $30 here is the Trans tag Thanks

What have you done "WITH" your Wheel Horse
ebinmaine replied to rjg854's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
It's been blazing hot which severely limits my outdoor time. That doesn't affect the BBT at all though. I've been watching the dog (there's a thread about that) so Trina can get some wood processed. -

First things first - Our Meeha/Mirror puppy dog is at home resting and healing. For now. She will never be "out of the woods". I haven't brought this up sooner because I couldn't find the strength for the overwhelming emotional weight. Back on the last Sunday in July we were out in the yard and forest clearing land. Felling. Cutting. Sectioning. Stacking brush. There was a tree trunk standing in the fenced backyard that's been dead for years. I had decided to slice the base so it would fall. I knew the dog was around. Well that dead trunk fell right over before I knew it.... and the very top landed on Meeha. Had I taken better precautions this would have been avoided. We brought the dog to the emergency vet and they ran some triage tests. It was determined that Meeha has a shattered right upper pelvis and possibly a chip off the top of a vertibrae between her hips. She was able to feel pressure on her feet. She wanted to walk. Just couldn't. She had good pink color in her gums and mouth which apparently tells us that she was not bleeding internally. The decision was made to let her heal at home for a few days and see how things went. ALL other life concerns came to a full stop. Trina's been home for two weeks now. Working from home most days. I help with whatever I can in the early mornings and evenings. For the first week we carried her out for "nature breaks". After that she's been slowly becoming able to walk with assistance from a towel holding her up. Meeha is healing well so far. We hope it keeps going well. -

Doing an 8 speed gear oil change..easier to just remove the trans right -
I cannot offer a source, but that roller is the same on a 36" gear drive deck (RM367) And the same over several years. Post an ad in the Wanted section... or try several of the RS Vendors. The roller itself iis not a difficult part to duplicate either....
