cgambino1018 21 #1 Posted June 8, 2022 Hi all, Got a 1990ish 520 Wheel horse and large lawn vac. Had a smaller vac and picked up the larger one at a moving sale. This one is so big that I can mow the entire 1 Arce (about 19k sq feet of lawn) without stopping. My problem is with all this grass behind me in the vac the front end is very light. What is the best way to get weight to the front of the wheel horse? Is my only option wheel weights? Side note: in the attached pic the bracket connected to the front of the wheel horse is for annual dethatching. i dont think any weight should be put on that as its attached to the pully. All input/advice/thoughts are appreciated. Cheers Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger R 442 #2 Posted June 8, 2022 This works well in my case, but a much different tractor and frame. Those are steel plates approximately 3/8 thick 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can not move the dollies. and yes it does push the front end of its C-175 around a bit. Does your hitch plate look like this...at one point they redesigned the hitch for WHs 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
