Newbiew here with my D160 Auto

[Wild Wil 0]

Hi to everyone!!! I have been on here a little while looking for info on my D160 Auto. Well I am very impressed with the info and the great things on the site. As you can see I am using ag tires and weights and still get stuck every now and then. But when you break the snow blower you gotta use what you have.... When I got the D it came with extra rear end that is all redone, all books and tickets from dealer also 2 sets of filters and a rebuilt(w/bills) for Onan too. Did not have to do one thing to it and it works great!!!!! 1500.00 was the price I think I got a good deal?

When the weather warms (not a cold weather person ) I am planning to do some work to the WH. I am confused on the fluid to use on the Ark loader... manual says Hyd oil and I see some same loaders use 10/30w? For now thats the only real question I have. But later on would like to find out the cross reference for Toro parts, well learn what models are = to my D. Well I hope you enjoy the pics and nice to meet you all. Sorry for the off center pics ... told you I hate the cold..

Hello and

Nice looking D you got there.

My Ark loader came loaded with 10w 30 motor oil and that's what my manual states to use. I don't think it really matters which one you use but I would pull the drain plug to see what's in it now, and use the same thing.

B) Good thing you have an extra rebuilt rear end. I just finished rebuilding the one I got from a fellow rs member for my auto 18 (same as the D160) and it is NOT fun !! You will find a lot of good people and good info here. You may want to edit your signature with your location. Welcome

[tgranthamfd 29]

Hi and Nice D. You could put some chains on and shouldn't have any more problems. I put the 2 links on my 8.50 ags and it got around a lot better than before, with just ags and weights.
