Derek W 16 #1 Posted Thursday at 02:41 PM Good morning, all! My name is Derek. I'm from Churubusco, Indiana. I was told about this forum from a guy named Bob. He said that this forum was the place to be to find info from some really helpful people. Bob drove 1.5 hours to buy a Wheel Horse mower deck that I was selling and he told me about this forum. I've just recently gotten my first Wheel Horse tractor. It's a '98 312, at least I think its a '98. The tractor came with a mower deck and a snow blower attachment but I don't have a need for the mower deck nor the snowblower. I just want the tractor. I want to use it as a trail rider. I bought two other brand tractors for my wife and my daughter because the prices were nice. I'll be doing the wrenching, as needed, so that we can go riding together. Anyway, I'll keep this short for now. I'll browse the forum and I'm sure I'll be back to ask questions and share pics and stories. 12 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handy Don 14,535 #5 Posted Thursday at 04:27 PM (edited) Welcome (and thanks to “Bob” for referring you)! As an FYI, know that you can often find relevant posts from the forum using Google and including “wheelhorseforum.com” as a search term. Two things Google cannot see are PMs (private messages) and documents/files from the forum's library of owners’ manuals, illustrated parts lists, wiring schematics, and more.

The deck is going to work out perfect. @stevasaurus FYI, the deck I got from Derek will be going on Dino. I finally had a chance to look at it to see about patching the deck that was on it but when I flipped it over it was pretty clear that it was beyond repair. Nancy wanted a rear discharge so now she'll have one and I'll have spare parts. Edited Thursday at 05:31 PM by Racinbob 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
