BruceRoh 8 #1 Posted August 26, 2020 Hello, this is my first Wheel Horse tractor. I was currently a Sears Man, but I may be hooked. I bought a 1985 314-8 . Model 21-14K801. At least I think. Identification plate was painted over. I tried to clean off to read number. Must have been marked with a 1985 Sharpie? An of coarse the 48 " mower deck that was on it, yeep plate is gone. I researched an I think its a model number 05-48 MS03 ? Needs some work to tractor. But runs great. 1600 hours. I will bring this Baby back to life! My question to Group, I need to find a manual for tractor an deck. PDF file would be great. I like to have books for my Babies. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for reading, Bruce 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevasaurus 23,204 #3 Posted August 26, 2020 You have the right model # for the tractor, but I come up with #05-48MS05 for the deck. #05-48MS04 was the old number. Then there is a listing for what is called "the currant number" 15-48CS03/78361 . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,369 #4 Posted August 26, 2020 Sorry we do not have a 1985 operator manual. We do have the wiring diagrams. Here is an early 1986 manual that will be similar except for engine and wiring. They did not have a 14hp model in 1986 so use the 12hp version. Here is what comes up on a 21-14K801 search https://www.wheelhorseforum.com/search/?q=21-14K801&quick=1&type=downloads_file Parts list for the 48" deck. The height adjuster is on the left side of the 48" decks. 1984 48" deck operator manual 1986-88 48" deck manual Garry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
