1267 Mower deck

Recommended Posts

sdhdcouple

Well this is a multi part question post.

 

on the deck on this 1267 I bought is there a timing order to the 3 blades.

 

when the correct blades are on it will they hit each other? 

 

do you set 2 outside ones to the 3 to 9 position and the center one to 12 and 6 position?

 

does any one have a blade part number?

 

I can't seem to find an ID tag on the deck, but I could be missing it also.

 

I went out and started going thru the 1267 I bought last week and the center blade is loose, doesn't cut.  I was going to take these of and sharpen them if that center blade shaft aint ruined.

 

Also did they make a center discharge mower deck or are they all side discharge?

There is an attachment list here

 

36" width of cut rear discharge

42" width of cut side discharge

48" width of cut side discharge

 

Only the 2-blade decks with shaft driven spindles require the blades to be timed.

 

Which deck do you have?

I will guess that is a 48" deck going by the belt cover. It is bolted the the deck reinforcement plate which the 42" decks did not have.

Blades are 16-1/16" long measured diagonally tip to tip. They have a 5/8" x 3/4" double-D hole.

The original 6758 blades have been replaced by a 3-blade set # 100202 at Toro

Napa blades are 3 of # 7-04536

Well I am thinking I might need to get a mower deck.  the two out side spindles are those with the center hole and have two smaller holes for the guide pins for the blade.  my center one is a 1 1/8" nut with another 1 1/8" nut that jams the blade together.  is that correct?

 

If not I am going to need a deck

Originally all three spindle assemblies would have been the same.

 

This chart shows how the replacement spindle assemblies changed over the years so what you have may be correct.

 

Open the 48" deck page from the index on the left.

Now click on the line that starts with RL-486.

That will bring up a single page showing all the optional spindle assemblies for that deck.

 

If the rest of the deck is in good shape it is worth finding good used spindle assemblies to update it. The later design used replaceable bearings and blades with a different center hole.

 

The 48" deck with the plate steel reinforcement above the pan is much stronger than the 42" decks which don't have the plate. The 42" deck pans are often cracked around the spindles which I suspect is from out of balance blades.

so is the deck on a 67 the same deck as on a 69 year tractor?  or is my deck the wrong year deck on my tractor.  I wish I could find a number on it.

Your 1267 tractor became the Raider 12 for 1968-1972 and a 12hp 8-speed in 1973 and a C-120 8-speed in 1974. All the same basic design with more options and improvements. Same with the mower decks. I personally don't know what the differences were to generate  a new model number. Some years there was no difference but new model number. One can only look for differences in the illustrated parts lists and compare them to what you have. The spindle assembly and bearing style would be one of them.

 

1967 model RL-486 - 48" (48) in 1966 (6) and this model carried over to 1967

 

1968 model 5-1481

 

1969 model 5-1482

 

1970 model 5-1483

 

1971 model 5-1200

 

1972 model 5-1201

 

This is a description of the 1972 attachments

1973-1974 model 5-1210

Hope there is something there that helps. Some of the TIPL's may include more than one deck size and they often fail to identify what deck uses what part.

well I got that deck off today and flipped it over to better understand the issues.  The center spindle is junk.  the threads are stripped not from being over tightened or threaded wrong. the nut had become loose allowing the blade to spin freely and taken out the threads.   so I need a spindle, but with the wear and rot on the deck shell I am thinking it is not worth the effort.

 

I think I am going to buy a set of blades, get them as tight as possible, then weld them on.  then find a deck for this thing.

 

it is already toasted,  might as well burn it.
