Gunny 240 #1 Posted January 21, 2023 Completeing a restore on my Dad's first dealer purchased WH. Got to a point where the old saying "I'll remember where that goes" has once again failed. The pics have the assembly for engaging/disengaging the mower. I am missing something on the assembly that will keep the trip lever lockd in place. Most likely have missed something else as well. Any assistance will help. There hasn't been a mower deck on here in about 30 years, always had a front blade attached. It has always been the dirt/gravel/chicken litter mover. Have already completed the Mower Deck. Thanks, Dennis 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gunny 240 #6 Posted January 25, 2023 I can do that. Slow going down here, been raining and cold this week. My bones don't like this kind of weather. Plus not real good for painting. Was able to paint the motor this weekend. Waiting to finish getting the minor dings and dents out of the Hood, Fender and Belt Guard. Trying to decide if I really want them out, or keep them in. As I mentioned, Dad had this when I was much younger, went through 8 Grand Kids, 11 Great Grand Kids, most of the dents and dings belong to one of them! I think I will get go ahead and fix them all. That will stop the kids from bragging on which dent was their's! 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
