base459 4 #1 Posted May 10, 2019 Hello All, My dad passed away a couple years ago and I was able to inherit the old Wheel Horse C-101 that I’ve used to mow the lawn growing up to mow the lawn at me new house. I’ve had the blades sharpened and belts replaced a couple times, but each time my friend took it to a place. I would like to be able to do it myself, but can not remember the steps my dad gave me to remove the mower deck. I downloaded a wheel horse service manual, but it didn’t give any information on it. It seemed to only give maintenance/tune up help and detailed descriptions of all the systems for the B,C, and D series. Does anyone happen to have instructions or a .pdf of a manual that would show the process? I would really appreciate it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

base459 4 #3 Posted May 10, 2019 Thanks Nylon! This looks like it should do the trick. Its not the same model but looks like it has the same set up as my C-101. Any instructions on removing the blades? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
