mowinman2 45 #1 Posted June 6, 2018 I’m happy to say I’m the new proud owner of this fine C-195. Hour meter shows 208, but it’s not working. However, the owner said it probably not far off, as he only used it for about 2 seasons after buying it from original owner and then he retired it. He was nice enough to get running and even put a new battery in it. The tires are in great shape, and as you can see from the pics, wheel weights all around. 3pt hitch and Rear PTO!! No belt on the rear PTO, but i did find a diagram for routing it in the files section. Could use a seat, but boy does it purr like a kitten. I’ve never seen one of these before in NC, so I had to bring it home with me. 8 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,034 #3 Posted June 6, 2018 It is a great find for sure. Has all the goodies. Yours is either an 82 or 83' I have same machine with same goodies and same wheel weights around. Mine is an 84'. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skipper 1,788 #4 Posted June 6, 2018 Congratulations on that fine machine! Perhaps we should have a C195 club logo made up soon I can recommend the 60" HD deck off a 520, gear reduced steering, and the 50" tiller. It makes it an unbeatable mowing machine that can also turn your garden around with ease I have all the belt sizes etc. on hand, so just ask if you need any info. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could use that part number since the diagram in the file section didn’t have it. And is there any special pulley on the frame for the rear PTO belt routing? Here are pics of the pulleys that are on mine. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skipper 1,788 #8 Posted June 6, 2018 I will snap a few pictures for you when I get home from work. Due to time difference that will result in you not having it untill tomorrow US time. The two pulleys you have on front. One on frame and one on mule, is for the deck. The rear pto needs a dual pulley bracket for the mid attach-o-matic, looking much like the one used for the tiller on the other models. Pics are coming. Belt numbers etc. also comes when i get back home. You may be able to see a bit of it in this thread: 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was in his backyard when I snagged this yesterday How did you happen to find out about it. I would probably have snagged it had I known about it. A Super C would fit in well with my herd of horses with 15" rear tires. Have no real need for one, but since when did that stop me or others from buying? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The owners son listed some Allis Chalmers B wheel weights on Facebook. Went and bought them, and asked if he had anything else tractor related he wanted to sell. He showed this nice unit and I told him next time I came through, I would have an empty truck bed and some cash. Lucked up on it you could say. About 2 miles from the airport, outside of Franklin. I come through Franklin every 6 weeks with work. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skipper 1,788 #17 Posted June 7, 2018 (edited) Ok so belts are like this: Drive belt: 5/8" x 87". (Toro 87.25") Side PTO to Deck: 5/8" x 94" for HD 60" deck, and 1/2" x 92" for std. 60" deck. Remember the flat idler on the frame is also adjustable. You may want to change your mule idler to 5/8 type if you run the HD deck and belt. You can also run the HD deck on std. 1/2" belt. Rear PTO: 1/2" x 151" Deck spindle belt, std 60" SD deck: 1/2" x 117". (Toro 109909, 16.75") Deck spindle belt, HD 60" deck: 5/8" X 131" I know some say that you have to buy oem belts. That's not the case with these. I have 5 195's with all different kinds of belts, and they run equally good and without any problems, being oem or just good quality oe replacements. On the mid mount pulley bracket, i have taken a few pictures, and also with the 36" tiller bracket for comparison. As you can see, the flat side idler is angled, and bigger. Otherwise pretty much the same. If you do not have one, I think you could easily make one up just by modifying one from a tiller. Those are readily available. Just let me know if you need any measurements etc. Pics of rear pto belt routing. Notice the twist between the two flat idlers: Edited June 7, 2018 by Skipper 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
