Search Results for ‘850’

Okay, so before I start, in case anyone tries to flame me or give me a hard time saying that this topic has already been covered elsewhere on the forums and if I just searched for the answers, they are already out there, I have been SUPER busy lately with everything going on in my life at the...

Hello all, Been a while since I have been up on GTT and it's getting close to planting season. So I come with a couple of questions. My 1053 is down until I can get the crank and piston rod replacement for the TRA-10D Wisconsin motor. The 850 is down until I can figure out why the clutch...

Hi gang, I started digging into my 850 I acquired several months back to see what I can find out of why the clutch doesn't work. So far all parts seem to be there according to the parts diagram. Now, I read on how to adjust. Here is where my confusion comes in. "CLUTCH ASSEMBLY (3-SPEED...

A couple of months ago, I was in the middle of cutting my grass with my 1053 and the spindles on the deck started to smoke. I knew this was going to be a royal pain in my rear to find parts so I went looking for another deck. I found this 850 on CL with a cutting deck and plow blade. Guy was...

Good luck with that. http://dayton.craigslist.org/grd/3655190197.html

. Well, I was a bit late getting my tractor ready for winter this year. Of course, this is also my first winter with my Bolens 850 tractor! I had kept the mower deck on it well into December in the hopes of getting a few last minute lawn and leaf cleanups since we had such a mild start to...

Like I need any MORE problems than I already have. I was out playing around with my new toy and trying to get the chute from my new Trac-Vac to mount to my 850's mowing deck. (But more on that later once I get this problem taken care of!) However, I was riding around on my 850 when I had some...

I have some questions about fine-tuning a Wisconsin S8D engine on my Bolens 850. I have been fiddling with the governor linkage on the engine for some time now to try and get it working properly. I think I'm close, but it still acts weird to me... I know it is an old cantankerous engine and...

I finally brought out what I have together of the 850 to take it for a test run (video to soon follow in my other post) on Sunday evening. I also loaded up the old Bolens to take over to mow someone else's lawn today, since they've been asking me to come mow their lawn since Wednesday of last...

Okay, so in my Bolens 850 "restoration" (I use that term loosely since I'm not doing a full, complete restoration but rather just fixing up some of the worst areas on the tractor...), I am going to need new decals to put on my (hopefully soon to be) freshly painted hood. I am kind of conflicted...

Hello all! I just found out about this forum and joined last night. I thought it would be a good place to find and offer help to other tractor enthusiasts. Before I tell you about my find, let me give you a little of my personal history (for those that might actually enjoy it). If you're not...
