Oliver23 3 #1 Posted June 11, 2019 Hi, I've always wanted a wheelhorse and I saw this and jumped at the chance as it was a really good price in the UK and I thought it was a wheelhorse. But i'm not really sure now, it has a kohler engine and the deck looks like a wheelhorse one but could anyone shine some light on what I bought? In the UK wheelhorse tractors are quite rare and don't come up for sale often. Thanks, 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oliver23 3 #3 Posted June 11, 2019 Thank you for replying, could it be a jacobson chief? I'm going to pick it up soon but it's kind of a mystery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diesel cowboy 263 #5 Posted June 11, 2019 Yep looks like a Jacobsen with a Cub Cadet snow plow modified to fit it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,717 #6 Posted June 11, 2019 I don't think that the deck is not Wheel Horse either...probably Jacobson also. Cowboy is correct...Cub Cadet snow blade.with bracket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I can see of the engine, I think that you would be correct on the model being an 800. The 1000 would be a 10hp, and the 1200 would be a 12hp. You don't see Jacobsen Chiefs for sale in my area very often. Nice find!! No need to be a stranger on this forum do to the lack of a . Many of us dabble in other brands. Keep an eye on our Euro Wheel Horse classifieds section for possible sales in your area. Edited June 11, 2019 by Achto 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,814 #12 Posted June 11, 2019 Chiefs are definitely rare but did pass on one recently. The guy was supposed to send pics but never did and was always away. Heres another nice one ... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oliver23 3 #14 Posted June 23, 2019 Thank you for the comments, I've picked it up and it is indeed an 800. Absolutely no informaton or parts in the UK, everything seems to be in America. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
