New2WH 1 #1 Posted yesterday at 02:37 PM Recently acquired C-161 16hp Wheel Horse. It appears the clutch plate is wiped out. Where can I get a service manual that shows the parts break down for this assy. Any help on where I can find the model and s/n tag? Are parts still made for Wheel Horse? Thanks 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 12,230 #2 Posted 23 hours ago Welcome to Red Square. This link shows where the ID tags were in 1978. That is the steering fan gear in the background. An odd location and they did not stay there for long. This is the 12 hp model but tag location will be the same. The tag should have the model number, serial number a 4-digit build date.

peter lena 9,874 #6 Posted 4 hours ago @ NEW 2 WH , most important question ? what's causing the , plate wear / drag ? bet its COLLECTIVE LUBRICATION / FAILURE , most of the units I see , have belt drives that barely function , ironically once converted , that set up is truly amazingly smooth , easy in its function . most immediate show of that ? mule drive belt , from engine down to frame pulley mount , mine move move easily by hand , no rough , erratic function , also frayed belts will tell you that , just a heads up on the repetitive failure , pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New2WH 1 #7 Posted 2 hours ago Thank you all for your response. I was told by previous owner that the clutch gave out while snow blowing (hitting ice) I will take a look for the model/serial number Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
