Lee1977 6,221 #26 Posted February 21, 2019 Witch engine do you have a Magnum or a K-Series. 1985 and 1986 had a K-series, and 1987 up had Magnums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,503 #31 Posted February 22, 2019 Kohler built your engine in 1987 so the tractor should be a 1988 model number E1-12K801. Click on the picture. Garry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,503 #35 Posted February 22, 2019 The attachment list shows two vaccuum baggers (typo for vacuum?) model numbers 07-42VB91 and 17-42VB91 which are in a format consistent with Wheel Horse model numbers but see nothing on them. They required a 42" side discharge deck. Perhaps these were sourced in Europe as we have seen other attachments that were not available in North America. The D&A is the tractor details and Attachment list you can download. Click on the fuzzy picture. The belt driven rear mounted vacuum we are familiar with was available for the C-Series tractors before the 300-Series tractors. Click on the pictures. For a 5 cubic foot cart For a 10 cubic foot cart The belt driven vacuums we are familiar with after 1984 had the blower mounted on the mower deck and was driven by a double pulley added to the right mower spindle.
