Ok I have a QA42AU111 with my 1976 1250

Original owner is my father who gave me this beauty years ago

I’m currently tearing down both the 1250 and particular restoring it with some updates.


The QA-42 Runs no issues ever that I’ve used it for.

I have it torn down to the bucket and auger all other parts are off.

Looking for opinions on what to look for on items that need to be looked and replaced.

The only thing I see that catch my eye:

the blade on the bottom wore off in the middle
The drive shaft the rear of one of 1/2 shafts cap was half off ( I’m pretty sure this is open inside and not sealed but let me know.

The sprocket on the auger head looks good but not sure how a non wore one looks like. No teeth are missing or out of place.

Is there any updates that can be done to this while I have it apart?

Any help or ideas would be great !
