mower deck attachment 42 rear discharge C120

[cafoose 3,355]

I have a 1974 C120 automatic I am trying to attach a 42 inch rear discharge mower deck. The ID tag says either 95-42MR02 or 05-42MR02 it's hard to read the first number looks more like 95-42MR02 to me. I do not have the lift rod for the deck and I don't know where it attaches or which holes in the deck and lift lever to attach it to. I can get the belt hooked up and the mid tach-a-matic hooked up I am only having problems with the lift mechanism. If anyone has any pictures how to attach the lift I would greatly appreciate it.

These are for 42 side decks...should be the same hook-up.

Here is a bit of info on your 1979 model 95-42MR02. The 9129 is the Julian build date - 129th day of 1979

We do not have the operator manual for this one but this will work as the basic design never changed.

Looks like my tractor is missing the lift bar and pin as shown in Daveoman1966's last picture. All I have is what shows in these pictures.

I got it all figured out when I got the tractor it had no mower deck and I removed the lift bar and pin thinking I didn't need it. I put it in the shed and when I figured out I needed it just now I remembered putting the extra parts in the shed so I looked and found it. I referred to the diagrams and manuals I downloaded and put it all together and now it's working fine. Thanks for all your help Dave and Garry.
