Hey it's pretty easy, was about 70 today and all the rest went outside for some fresh air. That's the only way to see the floor 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,032 #6 Posted November 6, 2016 Notice the paint is loose at the bottom corners of the upper chute. That may be caused by vibration. My chute is mounted by rubber insert nuts that I have not been able to replace. Seem to be an odd size and mine are now very hard but still functioning. Have not tried MacKissic because I'm in that foreign country to the north. https://www.google.ca/search?q=rubber+nut+insert&espv=2&biw=1680&bih=944&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjqgZqampTQAhWBxYMKHdrsCygQsAQINQ Garry Adding I should have added that the metal may crack where the paint has failed if it has not already. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GlenPettit 1,716 #7 Posted November 6, 2016 MacKissic is really a great company, and very supportive of us "old equipment" users, especially with Garden Tractors. When you call and talk to one of the tekkies, they really showed an interest (be sure to let them know you're Wheel Horse person). They seem to have every part in stock, even 40+ years ago . . . and when I did order a few parts, found lots of extras in the box (literature, decals, +). They have mounting brackets available for every brand L>, so any model can use their MacKissic Shredders; their new shredders are expensive but excellent quality, –– but it is very easy to fixup and repair the really old ones, since the factory has all the parts. I found, using the correct size screen is key, I have 3 different screens now and really enjoy shredding & chipping. http://www.mackissic.com Glen 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edgcooper 4 #9 Posted May 7, 2017 Could someone be so kind as to give dimensions of the supports to mount the Mighty Mac chipper/shredder to the front of 300 or 400 series Wheel Horse. Thanks.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
