Greetings; I got a 1076 Wheel Horse tractor, mower deck, and snow blower for the perfect price. They are all three in pretty good shape, but have been stored outdoors without being run for maybe ten years. The tractor has the original 10hp Kohler engine. My plan is to put this pony and her attachments back into service. I don't need to make her pretty. I just want her strong and dependable again. My first move was to buy a copy of the original owners/service manual. My next move will be to buy and install after market throttle and choke cables. After that, I'll refresh the fluids, grease and spark plug. Based on looking her over, I do expect she'll start right up. At this point my first questions are as follows: 1.) The service manual shows a "speed control handle" on the right side, about even with the rear edge of the hood. The service manual also shows a "Cam control arm" (part no. 6123) on the right side. Neither of these levers appear to be present on this tractor. Did these represent optional features? Are these levers attached to the mower deck? (I haven't brought the deck home yet) This manual is also for the 1276 model. Could those levers have been for that model only? 2.) On the left side of the frame, near the front edge of the rear tire, there is a clutch brake. My first problem is that the manual doesn't identify that item for me. The clutch pedal does not link to that clutch brake, and doesn't look like it ever did, although it looks like maybe it should. How was that brake applied? It's a mystery to me. What I need is a 1076 expert with photos of every possible angle of this tractor. If I can see pics of this tractor in fully operational condition, I can figure out what I need to correct. I'll be refurbishing this tractor out-of-pocket, and money is tight, so it's going to be a slow process but any help is appreciated. As a side note, my current lawn machine is a 12hp Murray which is showing signs that it's time to retire (scrap) it. I want this Wheel Horse to become my replacement mower. Thanks in advance for any help.
