Cool puller! Did you run it?

My dad got an old 4 hp WH in the sixties. It came in pieces from the PO in boxes and he put it back together. We cleared paths and more in a 2 1/2 acaer abandoned apple orchard. Really, it was a blast using that WH

There's more ... the house had a dirt cellar and central sewers were mandated. Good thing, we were on shale. Had to dig out for the install. Dad rigged a box and welded a trailer together that I still have. He built a hoist and an elevated rail system to lift the box out of the basement via the coal bin, push it out over the trailer and dump it. Reverse the motor, lower the box back down into the basement for another go round. Told ya all that to tell you this... we had to go down the hill to a neighbor that wanted the fill. Day after day I did this after school. The old man love me for doing this and I couldn't wait to do it either. So here's the punch line. After many years the rear left loose when I was taking a load down the hill. I road it out and never jacked the load! My shorts changed color :shock:

We worked the hell out of that little 4 hp WH for quite a few years and it died when I was about 14. I'll never forget it!

I have a C-81 thats a twin to yours.I have a rear tiller,
a 48" mower deck and a Brinly 1 bottom plow that it pulls
with ease.Wouldn't trade it for anything.

Poconoeagle · By: **Poconoeagle** On: Sun May 15, 2011 10:49 pm

now that makes the 8 hp, 10 hp, 14 hp, 17 hp....

the bronco needs a bit more love than the c-81 did...

I have one, 1976 B 80, its indestructible, One day I am going to restore it, really that means new paint...

Bought a C-85 (8HP) with mower that had been mowing a Post Office in central NYS for ever (Coeymans). Put it in the truck and have mowed for 5 more years - no problem and I do a big area. Just bought a Raider 12 HP with a 42" deck. Guy Bought it new and his dad mowed the lawn for 40 years (VERY well maintained - you WH fanatics know how to look after them). Now dad is 85 and the son thought he needed power steering this year so I bought it and keep two 4 acre show horse pastures mowed with it - whizzing along at high speed 2. I am so impressed that I've got my eye on a D 250 - now that is a brute but the guy wants too much money for it (for my taste anyway) but I am trying. Perhaps I will have to sell the weedwacker I gave my wife as a Valantines Day present. Rated at 19.9HP (to meet regs) but must put out 35HP with that Renault B800 engine.

the "D" series with its hydrolics is indeed a brute :!:

the 250 come's with a rocket-science book about the use of Levers.......

b800 is a strong engine....renault dauphine used many parts

OK--I'm tireds of seeing all these work horse pix. seems like you guys pick em up in damn good shape--what's that about

Me & my buddy went out shoppin this week-end--the kinda stuff we bring home??? the lawn tractor needs a lot more then the bowl & tank cleaned out :doh:

Now--the next thing is a kinda large leaf sucker--our thoughts are--sawdust always builds up (big time) under the sawmill--sooooo, we're going to get that beast cranking (8 hp Tecumsah)--run some flex pipe (8") over to the neighbors wood lot & let er rip--that's right--he's from Jersey & we don't like him. :clap:

we like pix???? plus acouple other projects--gotta do something till the ground dries enough to start haying. PE, we'll see whinny on the straight away
