Lars 526 #1 Posted August 31, 2014 Well i have not posted pict of the load of implements i got erly this summer.. but i got some really nice but rusty stuff... i got this winch that has been on a 1054 and it is bought as a wheel horse implement on this side of the pond.. not sure it you guys have something like this on your side of the pond.. when ill got it it was rusty etc etc since it had been sitting in the woods for about 10 years.. covered whit some steel/roof.. i have had it apart and went thru all bearings and chains in it, And i have fab up a new bracket so it now fits on the quickattach.. and gave it a new coat of paint.. so here you have some pict of it.. Time to get some paint on it So im almost done whit it.. just need to fab up a belt pulley on it since that one was gone when ill got it.. and some small more parts to paint and it is ready to be used!!!

Ed Kennell 39,388 #4 Posted August 31, 2014 I see the PTO will lift the load, but what holds it? And how do you set and release the brake to lower the load? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firpo701 407 #5 Posted August 31, 2014 I'm really liking that! May have to fab one of those in the near future! ;-) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CasualObserver 3,409 #7 Posted September 1, 2014 Would be very interesting to see who actually made it. I'm guessing it's some after-market attachment that someone put decals on... if you look closely, the decals in the first pic appear to be cut down dash decals from a 1964 round hood. You said it was on a 1054, right? Around 63-65 was when Wheel Horse didn't make a lot of specialty accessories and it was before the "allied attachment" catalog... but they did have a brochure of "Authorized attachments" and had a lot of specialty attachments made by outside vendors. In the US, it included things like the Chimera genrator and other independent branded attachments. (I can't find a copy right now for the full list) But.... perhaps you guys had a similar but different catalog on your side of the pond as well. I found a pic of the generator (they also made a farm PTO seen on the right), but I can't get to the rest of the pics of the the catalog. There's never been many of these early after market attachments found that I know of. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well you prolly right about it. im not sure i have tried to find out who made it.. but no luck yet.. and yes the winch has been on a 1054 or a 953. and the decals on it looks to be "original" that way.. no clue""" zoom in on the decal on this pict..https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26984719/Utstyr/20140516_020609.jpg but i guess this is some stuff that was made over here to winch small trees Lars Edited September 5, 2014 by Lars Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
