Oldcpecdr 255 #1 Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) First the sickel bar now another mower........ wonder if she will ever go away again ? My number 5 daughter returned home a few months ago and was willing to mow but the "big" Horses intimidated her a little.... so.... after picking up yesterdays Sickel Mower I went and got a Wheel Horse cousin.... A Toro 10-32 that has a Wheel Horse Decal up front, maybe they sold em that way in 1989. Appears to be very well kept and after airing the tires, swapping a battery in, and jumping the ignition she fired right up.... Not anything like my other Wheel Horses but pretty nice little mower..... I was surprised that the turning radius was larger than my C-100..... but for 200.00 a keeper and maybe my new tenant will cut the grass !!!!!!

If it has been well maintained it will cut a lot of grass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher 5,574 #5 Posted July 28, 2019 Oldcpecdr I had a Toro 8/32 professional rear engine like that best darn mower I have ever had made real well. The box tilted up for easy emptying.Tranny went on it could not find one so it had to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oldcpecdr 255 #6 Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) Feels like it has been well maintained, I did half the lawn yesterday but because of the bigger turn radius had to modify my usual route...that was a head scratcher..it's so little it ought to turn sharp !!!! But looks like it will be useful as a mower especially if my daughter adopts the mowing chores on the flat parts of our hilly homestead. The 10.5 Briggs is a LOT quieter than the Kohlers. On another note I ordered an ignition switch yesterday (Saturday at 330 PM) to replace the one I "borrowed " from my C-80 to get the Toro running. THEY ARE DELIVERING IT TODAY!!!! Less than 24 hours later and on a Sunday.... that is just amazing. Mike B Edited July 28, 2019 by Oldcpecdr 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
