Mower Deck Question

Recommended Posts

b-ski

Hi! yesterday I became the proud owner of a 310-8 Wheel Horse Classic. The guy I bought it from said that it had a 42" deck, but it just doesn't look that big to me. It has 2 blades nder it and I think it's a 38". Is there any quick visual identifiers that would let me know what size deck? sorry for my inexperience, but I am trying to learn a little about my new pride and joy. Thanks.

may be a picture would help

Also if you measure the length across both blades that will tell you the width of cut

If the deck looks a little off set then it would be a 37" deck. The 37" deck, when mounted, looks like it is on there a little different with the left front out farther than the right front. A 42" deck will come to a rounded point in the middle.

:thumbs: Hope this makes it clear as mud for you! :wh:

I've not seen a 42" deck with 2 blades. . . at least the 42" RD for my 310 has

3 blades.

b-ski,

looking at your pic at: http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/index.php?showtopic=27780

IMO it looks to be a 37" deck.

:wh: I agree I notice the spindles are on top of the deck as well,My 42 inch decks the spindles are below the deck shell :thumbs:
