1861 one eyed wonder
 
5 Attachment(s)
This was picked up in the rain yesterday at a auction, there were 3 but room for one only. :angry:
All the plastic has no broken parts.
Motor turns over, but no gas, I see no oil leaks anywhere.
Plow, 44a mower deck with a spot that was repaired with fiberglass, and mule drive, I believe the tires are loaded.
575 hours on the working hour meter.

Photographs for you.

Good find. Too bad you could have not got them all.

Looks good LP. Lots of steering wheel "accessories" on that one

So looking at the picture, it appears you can used "older" decks with these? Nice looking machine you have there.

not sure why the mule drive and frame is painted yellow, it should be white on that model. it doesn't have the big pulleys of the second gen mule drive.

Yes, I know it has the bigger pulley on the pto, the deck was choice so i took it over the POS one.

Thanks gents, I did get it to run by bottle feeding it, goo goo gaa gaa, but it needs the tank shutoffs cleaned.
At least it is not a smoker, phew....

Ok so that one should have come with a yellow/second series deck? every time I turn around I find out about a new cyclops I hadn't heard about before. is all that covered in the book or does it not cover cyclops?

Ah yes, a one eyed wonder. Wonder what you're going to do with it.:bigthink:

I am sure it is in a book somewhere, I know the older 82 series 44, 46, and 50" decks need a center pulley change and lift links need to changed, and few other things....
