Tankman 3,523 #1 Posted September 3, 2012 414-8 New to me, all my Horses were older. This was a gift, construction firm had the Horse 'n dozer sittin' around. Knowing I was sick with "Horsey Disease", sent it to me. A freebie. What year(s) were these built? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tankman 3,523 #4 Posted September 3, 2012 Built 1985- 1992,Need serial Number to tell year. Found this serial number, I.D. 3114K803 27881 Don't know how to post image, but, did add to my gallery. I just removed the mower deck, serial number is illegible (?). A guess? Engine serial number is also illegible. Another guess? No battery, yet. I checked rear and engine oil levels, topped off the Kohler just a bit. Also removed spark plug, added a little oil there too. No idea when this WH last ran but, doesn't appear to be in bad condition (other than neglect). Turned the engine over with a speed wrench via the flywheel. Been doin' that all day.

krazy_horse 59 #5 Posted September 3, 2012 Tankman, according to my notes yours falls into the range of a 1984. I am sure guys with more knowledge will advise. I have a 1986 model w/ a Kohler Magnum 14. Good strong tractor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,523 #6 Posted September 3, 2012 Tankman, according to my notes yours falls into the range of a 1984. I am sure guys with more knowledge will advise. I have a 1986 model w/ a Kohler Magnum 14. Good strong tractor. I prefer Kohler myself, my two 12 hp Kohler's are strong too. Where might I find a manual for the '85 414-8 tractor? I looked on the Yahoo groups but, without success. Might be a 1988 model, serial number listed on the attachment listing (*.pdf) in the files section. And the mower deck? No clue as to the assembly (deck) number/model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tankman 3,523 #9 Posted September 4, 2012 Definitely a 1988...VERY nice tractor for a freebie!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Cornhusker! Any ideas for the mower deck model number? Three blade, side discharge. Not runnin' yet but, I like it already! Sold my '07 Cub Cadet, was an SLT 1550, 25 hp Kohler, 50" side discharge. Just didn't fill the bill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can whlvr 994 #10 Posted September 4, 2012 if the deck is from 1988,the model number will be D5-42s01,a little earlier would be 05-42s01,if you want to see parts break downs go to www.partstree.com,go in toro home owner,and you will see all the categories like mower deck assemblys,tractors,snow throwers etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KATO 115 #13 Posted September 5, 2012 In the bottom left corner when creating a post, there should be a paper clip image with a choose files box next to it. when you click that box it will open a" windows explorer" window . there you should be able to find your pics.
