10 Blade Disk Harrow

Recommended Posts

mid60's

I recently picked up a 10 Blade Wheel Horse Disk, but cannot find any information on a 10 blade disk.

It looks just like the 7-1512 except for the number of blades. My question is did Wheel Horse make a 10 blade disk or did someone add a blade to each side. There is one spacer on each side that has no paint.

This make me wonder. Other than that it looks original and works great. I will leave it as is except for a paint job, just wondered. Thanks.

There was a 6-disc 24" harrow for the walkbehinds and the rest all appear to be 8.

32", 42", 48" tandem (16) and 50".

Would there be any pictures of the 6 bladed disc for the walk behind ? Maybe a manual?

Thanks, I was trying to get a mental picture of how it looked. Most disc used a pair of hanger between the four blades. A while back I saw one that only used one hanger per side, but still had the 4 blades. It differed by using a pair of angle irons for a frame, were the gang could slide in and out, though the slot between the irons. The hitch made me think it was  wheel horse type product.

 

Funny how there doesn't seem to be any pictures , manuals or brochures for the walk-behinds before 1954. I was under the impression that the tractors were built from 1948 up, is one form or another.
