Rosco234 0 #1 Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) Hello, I have a 1997 314H with a 42 inch mowing deck that has never been run. I inherited this tractor along with the deck and a 44 inch snowthrower attachment. I've been using it for snowblowing duties only but now would like to use the mowing deck this summer. It looks as though the mule drive for this unit is missing. I see a few for sale on ebay. Is there anything to be concerned about when buying one? Are there some that are not interchangeable with my year/model tractor? The mowing deck manual references a dial-a-height adjustment knob when installing the deck. Is this only for non-hydro version? My tractor does not have such a knob. I removed the snow thrower attachment this past weekend. It seemed more complicated than it needed to be. any help is appreciated. Thanks, Greg Edited May 5, 2014 by Rosco234 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Desko 624 #2 Posted May 5, 2014 From my knowledge they all should fit from (I believe) from 1975 C, 300, 400, and 500 series Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dennist 139 #3 Posted May 6, 2014 Your attaching and removal complications will only get better with time and practice. They all seem to have little tricks that you will gain over time that make it easier each and every time you go through the motions. As Desko stated above, the mule-drives almost all work...few exceptions such as C-195 and 520 W/60" deck maybe others? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
