Thank you! I'll pick up a right hand battery then. I'll also try to find a bungee cord or something to keep it from moving. Is there a chart or something for me to find out when this mower was manufactured?

I found a decent 3011X5S today, and I'm hoping it doesn't require much to get going. There isn't a battery on it, and since I'm not an expert on the required CCA, could someone tell me what the CCA would be for the 12 volt battery that I need? Can anyone tell me how old it is? It seems to have...

I think the leveling was a success. It only step cuts on areas that are horribly unlevel on my property...everywhere else looks great!

Got the level in today. I hope to get it leveled this week. I'll post again if I end up having issues, but don't foresee any. I experimented with cutting at level 3 for an actual cut of 2.5 inches above ground. Cutting at an actual 3 inches seemed too tall for my grass, and because it grows so...

This is as far as I can get them to open without holding them back with a rope or bungee cord. I open the plastic one, hold it open, then open the metal one and turn it until it gets in the notch that lets it stay open on its own. Here is a pic of the chute, as well as my hopper. I assume I put...

I finally decided to get a bagger since I have so much hay in my yard. For some reason, it would only pick up a few hand-fulls of grass when I used it for the first time. I ended up needing repairs on my LA115, and told the repair man about my issue. He looked at the blades that came with the...

Does anyone know where I can find a kit for an Onan 14 HP engine carburetor for my Toro Wheelhorse 72040? It runs pretty good, but I'm having trouble with the float sticking when I refill the tank with gas. I cleaned the carburetor, including all the parts and needle. I'm thinking the needle...

The book for my John Deere LA115 says to use general purpose grease, but I find that grease doesn't last long. So my question is, would it be a good idea to switch to high temp. grease?

The ball joint/steering linkages on my Toro Wheel Horse model 72040 broke at the ball joints that connect to the gear sector. The mower was and still is in rough shape, but I've managed to fix everything so far... now I have this problem. I went to steer and they both broke right at the ball...

Can anyone point me in the right direction on where to find the drive belt routing diagram for a model 72040? I'm having a bit of trouble figuring it out and none of the books I have include the diagram. Thanks in advance!

Sure do! A lot of my family are in Eunice. My Parrain had Olivier's Pawn Shop years ago. My deceased dad was a musician and played steel guitar with the late great Phil Menard and many others. Anyways...here are the pics. I took a few to see how it's only cutting through one guard.

Mine has plastic deck belt guides, and the pulleys keep cutting through them until I eventually have to replace them. Is this normal? If not, what can I do to fix this? It's been doing this since it was brand new, so I'm sure it's not a maintenance issue. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

I recently purchased a brand new Craftsman 30cc 4 cycle weed eater. This is the exact model: http://www.sears.com/30cc-4-cycle-gas-powered-trimmer/p-07173197000P I would like to know if there is a blow up view of the parts available because the manual doesn't have one. I saw this video on...

Are you positive? It seems to look just like the first one pictured in the parts manual, in my opinion. Part number 4.760-542.0 on pages D4 and E4.

I'm not sure if those would work on this model pressure washer. Attached is a picture of mine. It looks way different from the one in the link. I purchased a replacement hose and gun set, and the original wand did not fit for the new gun. According to the technician that I talked to afterwards...

Does anyone know if the K舐cher 4000g pressure washer came with any type of spray tips for the wand, or any other accessories? If so, what did it come with? I have a copy of the parts manual and don't see any extras that may have come with it, but the plastic handle has grooves that to me, seem...

I'll check in the AM for the number on the frame. Until then, here is the parts manual that I received from Karcher:

Are quick connections safe to use on gas pressure washers? I've never owned a gas pressure washer until now, and need to get a replacement hose for it. I was thinking about getting this one Karcher Replacement Hose and Trigger Gun Set for Pressure Washer, 25-Feet 2.642-708.0 -...

I recently acquired a used Karcher pressure washer that has a 5 HP Quantum XTS Clean Power 50 engine. Does anyone have a copy of the correct engine manual? I did find some paperwork on it, but nothing has the oil specs. on it. Any help with this matter is greatly appreciated!

I recently acquired my first gas pressure washer. It is a Karcher Model 4000 G. My question is about the detergent hose. Is it supposed to leak water while it is running? I thought it's purpose was just to suck in bleach or detergent for cleaning? I asked the previous owner, and he told me...

I am rebuilding an old trans. on a Toro Wheel Horse 244-5. It has Techumseh engraved on the trans. The specs call for 36 oz. of Bentonite grease (Peerless P/N 788067B). Since I am having trouble finding that particular grease, would general purpose grease or some other grease sold at Walmart do...

Toro Wheel Horse parts Does anyone know of a website that would have a used steering column for a Wheel Horse 244-5; model # 72040? The gear is stripped on mine, and from what I can gather, you can't just change out the gear on the steering column :thumbdown:

Can anyone tell me what type of transmission fluid to use on this type of transmission? I don't see any listing for a transmission fluid in the parts manual for this machine. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am in the process of attempting to remove the transmission pulley on my Toro 244-5, because it is badly rusted and needs to be changed. I removed the transmission from the frame and then I went out and bought a pulley removal tool, but it still won't budge! All that I see holding the pulley to...

It's on a Toro Wheel Horse 244-5. It appears to be a braided cable, with a black sleeve over it. Here are some pictures:

The throttle cable on my Onan engine was rusty on both ends, making it hard to raise or lower the throttle, so I sprayed the ends with WD-40. Now, every time I set the throttle at a higher RPM, it gradually slips down back to the idle position. I'm starting to think using WD-40 was a bad...

Can anyone tell me how to cross reference the oil filter, air filter and cleaning element for a Toro Wheel Horse 244-5 that has a 14HP Onan engine? I don't know of any places that are local to me that carry Onan parts, so I was hoping to get the equivalent from Wal-Mart or a local hardware...

Can anyone tell me how to remove the steering shaft on a Toro Wheel Horse model 244-5? The teeth on mine are all gone and I can't get it to steer anymore. I'd like to try to remove it myself to save on labor costs. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Here is the wiring diagram. As soon as I can get assistance, I'll go through the suggested steps and report back. Thank you.

Toro Wheel Horse model 244-5 will not start with key I have a 1993 Toro Wheel Horse Model 244-5, model number 72040. I am using it for a project, not for yard work. I removed the seat and deck because I will not be needing them, plus, they're in the way for what I'm using this machine for. I am...
