149 Snow Tractor
My 149 snow tractor has been in my building out back all summer with a mowing deck installed. Let it sit too long and it would not start. No heat in building and no electric. Have tried several warm days to get it to start. No Luck. Yesterday went down to building,(temp in low 60's)and took point cover off and inspected points. Point on the pivoting arm had a nipple sticking out on it. Took some 220 sand paper and removed the nipple. Battery was fully charged and used a fully charged battery with jumper cables. Back fired a couple times through the muffler but it started. The smoke rolled out for a short time and then cleared up. Moved tractor to middle of building and dropped the mowing deck, then remover the mule drive. Started on attaching the snow blower. Two hours later with me huffing and puffing, the blower was finally on the tractor. I will never take that blower off this tractor again. Seems I said the same thing last year. Drove it up to my garage and swapped places with another 149 tractor that went to the building out back. Was too tired to put the belt on and hook up the chute bar. Took a picture this morning. Hope it does not snow before I finish the job. Sorry I wrote so much. I get carried away talking about cub cadets. Have a great day.
