jim3sr 2 #1 Posted January 3, 2015 My plow blade ID # is mod 6 9622 7 according to various manuals for my 1987 310-8 should be 06-36mr04.What exactly do I have and how should it be entered in a parts search? Also the piece that runs from release lever to index plate,this is a rod?I don't have it,can I buy it? ( I have downloadedPDF#810280.1 ) If I can't buy it what can I substitute for this? The area that the release lever passes by the brake pedal doesn't seem to have enough room.Plow frame is Mod# is 41137 is this correct? Can this be slid over 1/4-1/2" to allow better clearance for release lever? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lane Ranger 10,530 #2 Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) On your blade (and other Wheel Horse tractors and attachments) you can go to Partstree.com and do a search on parts, find drawings , etc. www.partstree.com/ Looks like your snowplow (Model 6 9622) is a 1970 snowplow for a long frame Wheel Horse tractor. Plow should fit on your tractor but the pivot handle/lever on right side will not have the offset that later model plows had to clear the footrest on your 310-8 tractor. Also the 06-36mr04 sounds like a 36 inch rear discharge mower deck number -not a plow number for your 310-8 tractor. The rod can be fabbed from some steel bought at a Tractor Supply Store or other rural/ag supply -even Lowes or Home Depot.

doc724 924 #3 Posted January 3, 2015 Jim, I was confused by your original post, but Lane Ranger cleared it up for me. In addition to making the parts you need, you may also find a used one from Kelly (see RS vendors section). Someone on RS in the last 4-6 weeks made one of the pivot levers. Do a search in the implements section. Partstree has everything you need, but parts are expensive. I have found that Jacks Small Engine has the best pricing for most WH parts that I have to buy new Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KyBlue 652 #4 Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) I made a new lever cause I'm too cheap to buy the new one from toro... Ten dollars in steel and a dollar or two in map gas & oxygen and viola! I'm still doing the release handle - you can use anything for that rod... Bailing wire...or mechanics wire... Something along those lines.

KyBlue 652 #6 Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) Looks like you'll need this angle lever ... Toro 94668601 LEVER INDEX Price: $34.92 Toro 104341 UPPER INDEX ROD Price: $8.62 and the upper piece you squeeze is NLA ... but was: Toro 5107 DISCONTINUED Price: No Longer Available Edit: PartsTree.com lists the Part 5107 as Discontinued but can still be added to your cart. You might call them to see if they have a few on the shelf. List Price $46.40 Edited January 3, 2015 by KyBlue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KC9KAS 4,741 #7 Posted January 3, 2015 I have used a coat hanger (straightened) to make the "rod" before. I also have used a small diameter cable with cable clamps instrad of the rod. It is not necessairly being "cheap" just "frugal"! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jim3sr 2 #8 Posted January 3, 2015 can't I just use the strait lever I have and just have it bent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KC9KAS 4,741 #9 Posted January 3, 2015 can't I just use the strait lever I have and just have it bent Sure, if it will still be long enough after you bend a couple of 90* bends in it. I have used 1/4" flat steel 1 1/4" wide and made my own lift lever. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think mine was a bit thicker but it's 1 1/4 wide...Simple to fab Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KyBlue 652 #12 Posted January 4, 2015 IIRC - the first one I did was 1/4 and found out the same thing that you did ... as you said, live and learn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
