wholdguy 73 #1 Posted July 10, 2014 Hello fellow Wheel Horsers, I am new to the fold. Just bought this Charger 12 last week, It came with a mower and I am having trouble reading the model number on the label. It seems to read 1001 7. It is the 2 belt style with 3 14" blades. I am including a few photos to help with the I.D. for my records. Thanks for your help. G. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,499 #3 Posted July 10, 2014 Just enough info to figure it out - model 5-1001 The 7 on the end is not used but if you subtract 5 from that 6th digit you get the model year. 7-5=2=1972 Here is the mower manual Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wholdguy 73 #4 Posted July 10, 2014 Thanks KC9 and Garry. You have found the manual for me with everything I will need to keep the mower running. The Charger 12 is in original very good condition and has not been restored. This one has the Tecumseh engine and hydrostatic drive. G. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldredrider 2,547 #5 Posted July 11, 2014 That is one NICE looking Charger, especially since its all original. Congratulations! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wholdguy 73 #6 Posted July 12, 2014 Paul, thank you for the compliment. I guess I'm really lucky to stumble across this one for sale last week. There aren't many around this part of the country? G. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
