I'm not familiar with the D Series but the C Series did have a "Wheelhorse Dealer offered" Front End Loader for years. 

 

Backhoe,  I don't know.

Be VERY careful with using any paint removal chemicals on that. Check closely to see if that plate has embossed letters/ numbers under the paint. 

 

@Pullstart  Is that where the only ID is?

The "D" could have been equipped with the loader and backhoe from the dealer. They would have been "Allied Attachments" offered by Wheel Horse dealers but not built by Wheel Horse.

The model number tag that has been painted over can be cleaned up with a careful application of oven cleaner or lacquer thinner on an old tooth brush. Use gloves and eye protection and be surer you don't get it on painted surfaces you wish to protect.

I use regular paint thinner. Just be careful.

Some brake cleaner on a rag & a little scrubbing might remove enough paint to see the serial number.

Sundstrand transmissions have ACCELERATION VALVES AND SPRINGS that have to be replaced from time to time.

 

[oliver2-44 9,478]

Start with cleaning the linkage and adjusting/replacing any worn/sloppy components.  Some of it needs to be lubes, some needs to stay dry.  The hydro pump and motor fins should also be cleaned to insure good cooling.

Also checkout the acceleration valves and springs as 953nut mentioned.  

Probable just some maintenance in both areas is due. 

[Achto 27,364]

There is an acentric screw on the linkage on the left hand side behind the battery. If this is loose or worn out it will effect reverse. You will probably need to remove the battery to get to it.

D-series service info in this manual.

When we see the model and serial number we can find more.
