It is Lozeman from Elst near Arnhem, both the sweeper as the drum-mower are very rare.

they are both not made or sold by WH. 

Lozeman is still in Business

https://www.lozeman.nl/

 

just my 2 cents, I would find it hard to believe a dealer would make these implements. More likely a collector back in the day. (like the hitch and towball in 1)

A part of that mower looks to be from a John Deere and the sweeper from a Stiga.

Here a picture of my 416-8 with the tiller.

Nice tractor, in very good condition. Cool to see a WH tiller that is quite rare in Europe.

 

 

Here is a brochure of all the available implements sold by Wheel Horse:

The mower was 99% a product of Lozeman, it was bought from them by an uncle of me, together with his 512-D, the mower was a product from SIPI from Italy and I think the connection for the Wheel Horse was made locally here in The Netherlands. The part list of the SIPI can also be found on the site from Lozeman. For the sweeper I am not 100% sure, but I think they also let them made special for the Diesel.

 

And yes I am very pleased with the tiller, could buy from a former collector near Veghel.

@Maxwell-8 thanks for the brochure. Would be extremely cool to have all those implements! Eventhough I could'nt use all of them :eusa-think:

 

@Hendrik again, thanks for the info, very interesting. I checked Lozemans website, they still sell all the good stuff. Saw that they also have a store in Smilde which is pretty close to where I live. I might shoot them an email to ask if they have some info on the equipment for Wheel Horses

Maybe they are the ones that made those blowers then. the blower unit is from WH but all the rest isn't. 

Like on the 314 I sold half a year ago

      Hi all.
      This topic will be dedicated to the upgrades and modifications I'm going to do to my 512-D with sweeper attachment.
      The plan was to complete my mini IH 1468 before starting to work on the Wheel Horse but since the leaves are coming down quick I developed an 'itch' to get working on the Wheel Horse. 
       
      First things first, I had to get it running again. New ignition switch and new inline fuse, aswell as cutting out all unnecessary (for now) stuff solved the non-running issue.
       

       
      Dashboard wiring seems to be OK

       
      This is a mess. Two unnecessary relais, one unnecessary switch and a bunch of unnecessary wires everywhere.

       

       
      Next up will be a new battery and probably some modifications to the pto-clutch and new oil all around. Also I'm on the lookout for new filter elements for the oilbath filter for the Robin DY41D engine.
       
      Done for now.

       
      Major upgrades and or restoration will have to wait until after I finish the Murray to IH 1468 project.
       
      Running again. Listen to that THUMP! 
      Almost forgot to mention.. probably needs some new rubber mounts

      A while ago I picked up a Canadiana 5hp heavy duty tiller. It features forward and reverse control and you could buy add on implements for it.
       



       
      My example unfortunately suffered a catastrofic engine faillure a.k.a. 'window' in the block. Hence it was cheap so I picked it up. The idea I had for it was to mount it on the rear of my 'Murray to IH 1568' build. However since I bought a Wheel Horse i've been thinking about mounting it on the front of that tractor.
      This is what i'm thinking..

      Hi all I’ve just acquired my first Wheel horse and it’s a 1986 512-D with the Robins Diesel engine from what I can see it was a one year only model into Europe. Any info anyone can give me would be great .

      Hi All,

      Just wanted to introduce myself and my newly acquired 1990 Toro Wheel Horse 512-D (well almost, I pick it up in a couple of weeks!)

      I've been researching these for some time and managed to find one in excellent condition. From what I have read these were only supposed to have been sold in Europe, but apparently they must have also been offered in Australia too. I also noticed it seems to have the seat option with arm rests... not sure if this is a retrofit or an additional option, maybe someone on the forum knows?


      Anyway looking forward to learning a few things on here and getting to know a few people!
