Oldcpecdr 255 #1 Posted December 16, 2020 I was prepping the Snow Horse for plow duty tomorrow, fueled it up, changed the oil, checked tire pressure etc. While I was down putting air in the rears I noticed these brackets.... are they for a grass catcher ? another implement ? On one of my B-100 Hydro's. Identical left and right. Mike B 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peter lena 8,583 #5 Posted December 16, 2020 those are the lever stops to trap the back of the plow frame, use " R " clips to trap them , there is a small hole 3/16 at the bottom of lever stop , aerosol lube the area for easy movement , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-clip that is a picture of the clip , available at your local h/w store in the pull out small drawer section . detail lube the rest of the plow frame movement points . if you want to , for easer plow function , pete 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steelman 251 #6 Posted December 16, 2020 Looks like he already has a small bolt and nut to secure the levers in place. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oldcpecdr 255 #7 Posted December 16, 2020 Thanks for the info. Now I don't have to crawl under there and look I can just plow away..... are they used for any other accessories ? Mike B Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those are the pivot bolts that keep the clamp attached to the tractor. They are talking about pinning the clamp so it can't open on it's own. I just got done plowing with my 800 Special, which is more or less the same chassis as the OP's tractor, and I don't have mine pinned close. My issue was not the clamp opening, but rather nothing holding my make-shift pivot bar from walking away to the side and so I kept loosing the plow. After this storm I need to take the plow off to make some adjustments anyway, I'll drill holes in the bar then for retainer pins, or thread the ends for a pair of nuts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZXT 2,401 #10 Posted December 16, 2020 Learn something new every day! I've never seen a WH plow and din't know it attached at the same point. Just goes to show that the WH engineers thought ahead to make the mount common to multiple attachments! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnD 145 #11 Posted December 18, 2020 R-clip - thanks! I always knew that as a cotter-key (not a cotter-pin that you bend). When I was at the tractor store the other day the guy behind the counter only knew it as a hairpin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
