rorynate 1 #1 Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) Hey everyone new to the site here. A couple of months ago I purchased a 1974 D-200 with front and rear pto rear 3 point. I put it to work right away. I was grading driveway last week when the speed control arm I call it snapped a bolt or pin. Now I can not figure out how to fix the arm,it just hangs in neutral. And the 200 is sitting in the yard unmovable. I can not find the part anywhere. I call the speed control arm the lever that is forward reverse etc. Do not know the proper name. Can I just weld the arm back in a certain position? Any help would be appreciated Thanks rorynate. Edited June 14, 2016 by rorynate need help 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 23,282 #2 Posted June 14, 2016 Here is the trans manual for your transmission. Take a look at pages 22 and up. Page 24 gives a good picture of how it works and parts. If you did not know...you should have the Sundstrand #90-1137 transmission. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rorynate 1 #3 Posted June 14, 2016 Thanks stevasaurus. I have found the link to all the parts and all the manuals I now have downloaded on the 1974 D-200 K532 . I know the part # I need even but I can not find the part anywhere. I called Toro even and they quit MAKING THAT PART AVAILABLE MORE THAN 18 YEARS AGO. I DO NOT EXACTLY UNDERSTAND HOW THE SPEED CONTROL ARM WORKS OR I WOULD DO A TEMP WELD OR SOMETHING UNTIL I CAN FIND THE PART ON CRAIGSLIST OR EBAY. I JUST DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THE SPEED ARM CAN BE HELD TOGETHER BY A LITTLE PIN WITH A COTTER TO HOLD IT IN PLACE. LIKE THE DIAGRAM SHOWS.!!!!!!!!! tHANKS RORYNATE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 23,282 #4 Posted June 14, 2016 I am not familiar with that horse, just pretty good at finding information. Some will be along that will know how to fix what you have. Check the manual for the tow valve. Open that and you can roll or tow it out of the yard. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daveoman1966 3,841 #7 Posted June 14, 2016 What is the broken part you are looking for..... item # from this schematic: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rorynate 1 #8 Posted June 14, 2016 Part # 6-35 is the part that broke or ended up in the gravel in my driveway buried somewhere in the whiterock. I can only see the pin missing from the parts breakdown. The shifter just sits loose in between the two brackets. The spring assembly is still seated. Thank you DAVEOMAN1966 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rorynate 1 #9 Posted June 14, 2016 I found the pin sheared off sitting inside of the hand control arm. I knocked it out with a small tapping chisel. Now I have to find the part or have a machine shop maybe make me one the exact dimensions.!!!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pacer 3,177 #10 Posted June 14, 2016 If its the pin I'm thinking of - mine broke one time and as a 'make-do' I put a big nail in it thinking "I'll replace it later" - well, 4-5 years later when the nail finally wore through that mild steel, I fixed it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
