DONALD - I'm not surprised theres no baffles around the blades. I think they're really important for keeping the cut clippings moving away from the blades and not bending the uncut grass over as it's cut to keep the mower cutting nice. Should be an easy addition and I agree, the deck looks really heavy. The PO or whoever made the deck did a really nice job getting the runnnes & gauge wheels mounted.

I'd add baffles and make it my #1 mower deck. It gives me ideas about making a 44" deck for my #72. Use some of the ideas I used when I modified my 38" deck and use some of the improvements IH used on the 44 & 50 in. decks.

Francis,
The S/N reads 3494. They were hand stamped until later in the 70/100 run, so the numbers are sometime lightly stamped, not always evenly spaced, and not always in a straight line.

Francis, Paul,
It almost looks like there is a number 1 after the 4 in that s/n...

Went to haul the dump and come up with this from a guys yard. This guys has a QA42 in better condition than this plow for sale. I would like it but have no funds nor do I need it. He has no idea about what to ask for it and asked me. So if you are in the area of MD and want one I can try to work it out for you. The snowthrower has everything to hook it up.

Donnie,
You can see a lot of things on here, BUT, that doesn't mean they are real to you!

 

[aschumacher]

Don, not sure about logging in today...I'm working OK. But I did notice that Tim P. post is timed at 2:31pm and its only 2:42 here(EDT). Usually there is an hour difference between the Forum and eastern time which should have made Tims post 1:31pm server time. ? ?

EDIT: I see my post time is 2:51...actual time here is 2:46 !

I'm with scott

There was a little hitch in the get-a-long with the forum server today, but it's gettin closer to back to normal.
Or as normal as we can be!

Charlie- Daylight Saving Time doesn't start until next weekend

When rebuilding a PTO should you scuff up the pressure plate/clutch surfaces a little? Put on rebuilt PTO and it slips the same as before. The surfaces are glass smooth now.

I`am out in the shop and I have this computer that this site is my home page. It time out for 10 minutes and in the house as well.

This confuser is giving me some grief , I wnat to find some info on the Kohler 301 gen set 5 KW . I would like to have it running if I could.I hope the snow will soon be gone so I can send Kraig a lift rod for his O. I think he is

With me! I think I can find parts to get this 123 running and a worker , But I can`t build another shed 12' x 16' this year,The wife would have a "FIT" lol.

 

[bjohnson]

Charlie, that's the one. Good pic.

 

[aschumacher]

Don T. I did a little searching for your generator and came up empty. You have a little more info? Was it IH made? There another name on it..? I note Charlie didn't say anything so I guess he is not familiar with it, but didn't he recently get a gen that fits the front of a Cub?? Are they similar Generator assy's?? You have to find a wire diagram for it since it looks like there is some sort of a regulator built on the top of it.

 

[dtanner]

Dang I thought I saw TEST there for a minute lol.

I hope you post your question in the correct area as per the rules .To get an answer . This form is big and covers to wide an area to give a price to where you live.

If they have hard spots, I true them up on the lathe, then scuff them up on the belt sander to get a pretty good cross hatch on them.
But a piece of 220 sander paper flat on the work bench will do the same thing.
I just did 12 today.

I didn't say anything about it, cause it's off topic ya know.

Who knows what it is if Little Donnie Tanner drug it home!

 

[digger]

Lets see if Kraig's watching,

 

[tpennell]

Don T. After reading my post I can see where it is misleading. I bought the plow today for 100 bucks. The gentleman has a QA42 in awesome shape that I do not need. If anyone is interested in one please contact me and I will give you his info. I will refrain from anything on this section about selling anything, that was not my intent. Tim

what is the scoop on the 1450, ran across one today and hoping to snag it. seems like it has hydro deck lift. I havent had time to run the serial #s. Granpa was not home and was told will not sell anything according to grandkids.

 

[jbaker]

Tim P The 1450 is the 149s younger brother. It is the quite line version which main differences is the engine/charging/mounting system and the electric pto then all the shrouding parts for noise, Hence the name quite line. they are still 14 horse hydrostatic with hydro lift.

I have heard front hydraulics where an option but don't qoute me on that.
