Happy Borned on Day, Brian.

The bean counters probably figured a longer throttle cable was cheaper than the bell crank.

Side shot Saturday... AND SUNDAY !
MainelyWheelhorse replied to Sparky-(Admin)'s topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
The plow machine, We're supposed to get snow sometime Tuesday and at this point who knows how much. I've heard varying amounts At least I'll be ready. I've got chains and access to be able to load my tires if need be. -
Cyclone rake mounting hitch help.
TonyToro Jr. replied to TonyToro Jr.'s topic in Implements and Attachments
Sorry didn’t post for the last few days. Wednesday got the impelled mounted and all out together. Luckily it all came apart. On Friday we took a trip to West Haven CT to the cyclone rake factory and picked up the impeller and bag tube I was missing. Today we brought it in and we’re looking and decided to use the original mounted bracket for some other machine the PO had it mounted to. We welded that on to my additional hitch I had on my tractor and we are in business. Tomorrow give it a quick carb clean since it was leaking before when we had it running and suck up the leaves before the snow! -
Great catch...my stuff is all older wonder why the change???

What did you do today?
MainelyWheelhorse replied to Mickwhitt's topic in non tractor related discussion
Today, I worked this morning, I helped my father put his newly acquired from his older brother(my Uncle) used side by side in his garage with the 308. Did a garbage run with my father, We took the chairs and tables we used for Thanksgiving back to where we borrowed them from. I also talked to two of my brothers and one of my nephews. @ebinmaine We've had a mix here it's mostly rain now. -
That is kind of what I was thinking. I'm just trying to sort out the details and give myself options.
- Today
-
I'm thinking that this should be pretty much a bolt on conversion 'cause the electric PTO clutch was an option.

Got a BUNCH of stuff done. Camper is covered. Things put away. Moved around. Organized. Barn is just a few minutes work from having 3 cars parked inside. Been snowing off n on since around 9 am.

MainelyWheelhorse replied to Ed Kennell's topic in Wheel Horse Tractors
Today, I had this out for a bit to tow a newly acquired used side by side about 10 feet into my fathers garage to charge the battery and look it over. That was after I had to put the right rear tire back on the bead on the tractor and pump it up because of a slow leak. Once it was ready it worked like a charm. -
I did add an insulator between the module and the cover. Appears to be for heat dissipation, as the module is case grounded through the mounting bolts.

@Bar Nuthin Here's a copy of the lost post with your measurements. Here's a plethora of pics of the ones I have. Not perfect. Usable. Savable. Yours for the freight. -
We got about 6" of snow last night. Current temp is freezing, +/- a couple degrees, so the snow is kind of heavy. I dug Tiny Toro Two Stroke out today to clear the driveway and fro t walk. I haven't used him in 4, maybe 5 years. Filled him with fresh 2 cycle mix, gave him a shot of carb cleaner, and we were off making noise and throwing snow. The neighbor kid came over to watch. He thought it might be fun to stand in the stream of thrown snow. I stopped, shut the machine down and explained why he was not to do that and why. Was kind of interesting watching his relays close and come to a realization when I asked him how it might feel to get hit in the head with a rock that was hiding in the snow.

All "C" channel. You can see 👀 😏 it above. I can get measurements on that tomorrow. Note the section that has plate attached to the inside with the 3/4" rod through it. That's the part that attaches to the rear bracket. FYI. If you have the skills to weld up a whole frame, you could probably make a rear bracket too. Unrelated: "C" is for cookie. I learned that from Cookie Monster years ago.

I'm not picky food wise, especially pies. I think. I have things I'm not a huge fan of but I'll at least try them.
-
Thanks ebinmaine! On the frame, is that regular C-channel or fabricated from flat plate?
-
This is a big part of it too. My grandfather was living alone at the age of 89. He was not in good health, or highly mobile, but he was also a stubborn old man and wouldn't admit to either of those things. We had to convince him to let me install a hand rail in his kitchen for the step up to the rest of the house. This was after he had fallen off his ladder, and his roof, multiple times.

What? And my 854 as well! Dammit!

There is one on eBay sold by Wheel Horse Parts and More, pn: 104659, that is apparently the right one. I have seen the frame extension kit, but I figure if I have the overall length, I can build/modify another brand to work. As for the plow, I found a JD one that has the trip feature and is steerable. So once I have dimensions, I can modify as needed

Here's a pile of pics with a tape measure.

That linkage is fine as is. The throttle cable connections on a 300 series are a little different then the older C1xx tractors. Either way if it works, run with it.
-
Great! Appreciate it. 😁

Guess he needed reliable transportation up there!
