I don't need a grader very often but I have my eye out for one and know they're a rare bird in NC. I can't help with the model and fit but hope to see what you do to get it back in service 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,379 #7 Posted July 31, 2023 You can tell by the WH decal that it's a mid 60's to early 70's blade. Mid 70's they switch to the large WHEELHORSE script 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike in NC 341 #9 Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) Thank you everyone. I notice that it must be a Model 7-1112 or newer as of the angleing handle. I did not see a tag on it or where one would have been, I did notice that it is missing the lift arm, which I see Wheel Horse Parts and More sells. I might try this one my 312-H in the mean time. I didn't really need it, but I look for the unusal things. A friend had it and priced it at $100, so I could not pass it up, even if it is bent. I will work on that here soon.

Mike in NC 341 #10 Posted August 6, 2023 Since I had the mower deck off fo the 312, I put the center grader blade on it and tried it out. It worked ok, but I wqs playing around in some real hard dirt. It will look cool as a display at one of the local shows. I have a Cub Cadet with a rear mount rototiller that gets people attention. I hope the grader blade does the same thing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
