Mg181 4 #1 Posted November 21, 2019 I’m no mechanic and I’m just getting into Wheel Horses, but I just bought a 1996 314H with 48 side discharge mower. I already have a 1993 212H with 32 inch mower and bagger setup. I was hoping I could convert the new 314 into bagger with my current equipment but guessing not after looking at my pics and mounting bracket. Can anyone confirm? BTW, I think I got the 314 for a song, $500 with 250 hours on it? 50 year anniversary badging, too. Pics attached. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill D 2,264 #3 Posted November 21, 2019 You stole that machine. Looks great on the photos. 48" deck is better in my opinion than the 42_ due to the reinforcement plate on the top. Rust hole is an easy fix. Bill 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mg181 4 #4 Posted November 22, 2019 What about the plastic shute attachment to the deck, is a 32 inch deck the same as 48 in terms of mounting area to attach the plastic bagger shute? The 212 came attached by wing nuts and bolts. Just attach to the new 48 opening with similar bolts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
