1864 followed me home

[hyperlightboards48]

I need to stop searching craigslist for deals. This summer has gotten a bit out of hand as far as garage space goes

I picked up my first Cyclops this evening, price seemed right.

What i know so far:

Starts and runs great. Seems to accelerate really fast, tight smooth turning radius. 135psi of compression in each cylinder. Snowblower in great shape, a blade that appears to have been adapted to fit.

Known Issues
-Missing tin around Muffler; starting to melt plastic by hood hinge
-Hydro leak from rear, I will need to take the wheel pan to see whats going on there
-A bit jerky on the hydro control

I'll hopefully get around to looking into it a bit this week but i don't think ill get to address the rear leak till later this year so it will sit for now.

The second picture is a picture is an IH/Cub Cadet Trailer, pretty interesting I've never seen one, he said he has paperwork to go with it. Pretty cool, tilts to load a tractor on it, pretty low profile too. I did not buy this, just posting a pic to share.

Questions to follow after i do a bit of research

Nice find on the 1864! Great tractors!

The trailer may be a #5 . the fenders don't look quite right though.... can't tell from the pics... they are pretty hard to find.. did you see a ID plate on it?

Thanks! I didn’t get too good of look at the trailer unfortunately, didn’t see a tab but wasn’t looking hard.

Congrats on the 1864!

Good score on your 1864!

The angle of the photo makes the snowblower look as big as the tractor!
Nice find!
