My parents managed a small country hotel in Rhodesia (now called Zimbabwe). We had Kohler diesel engines running a large generator producing our electrical needs for our General Store, fuel (gasoline and diesel retail pumps) Grinding corn for the locals and a second one for pumping water for our use in and around the hotel. Very reliable engines and somewhat economical. Easy to service and repair when they rarely broke down.

My father had a 12 hp Cub, with lawn mower, snow plow and rototiller and trailer. I can't believe how many memories it brought back. He had taken it apart and rebuilt about everything on it. One time, we went to get a new belt, and tge clerk at the parts store made a comment hard to change or something. My dad responded he had rebuilt just about everything. The guy didn't believe him. So he started asking questions. My father answered them all, knew more about that engine, transmission, everything. And he did a lot of maintenance whole recovery from surgery for kidney stones, etc. He was mad, smart aleck guy, he said. But after that they respected him.

Excellent description of "How To". I had a 62 Original I dragged out behind some farmers home years back. Got it home, wouldn't run. Pulled the head and with rubber hammer loosened the stuck valve and lubricated it. Stuck old head, old head gasket original plug all back together and it fired right off been using it for over 20 years now. Your video shows how good a Kohler engine really is!

I'm a Dutch city slicker, know nothing about farm equipment. And I mean nothing. Still I'm fascinated by your channel. I guess I just like old barns, shops and fiddling around. I was a trucker most of my life, retired now due to illness. Maybe that's the link, because I was used to work under primitive conditions, driving to Eastern Europe and Asia. Had to do a lot of repairs myself down the road. Anyway, keep them videos coming, I really enjoy them.

I was about 10 and Dad brought home a new 1963 Cub Cadet on my birthday 06-27-1963. It was the king of the garden tractors. My friends had Wheel Horses. That's how we got around in the woods and places. There were no 4 wheelers or motor cycles. I currently have a restorded 1965 Wheel Horse hydrostatic with a 12 hp Kohler industrial motor. I like it too. TD Atlanta

I still have the 1966 JD 110 that I drove as a kid in the late 60s to early 70s. My granddad became a registered JD lawn tractor dealer but passed away in 1967 shortly after receiving his first piece of inventory… which my folks never sold. They used the heck out of it, and I even rebuilt the engine once (my first engine rebuild around 1975). It ran up until the early 90s until a ring broke and compression went away. I’ve gotten inspired to restore it a few times and collected some parts including a spare K181S… and this may have just motivated me to get back to it for real. I always kinda wanted a Cub Cadet to go with the JD so I’d have an example of each of the two original lawn tractors, but I don’t really have the space.

I love watching revivals like this. It’s so satisfying to see a piece of equipment especially one as solid and well built as this one saved from heading to the scrap yard. My father has a 1965 Allis Chalmers Big Ten lawn tractor, it is one of the best pieces of yard equipment I’ve used. He built a bucket for it as well as a log splitter he recent just finished building. He also has a tiller, deck, blade, and and snowblower attachments. Such a simple, universal, very handy piece of equipment.

I've got a new one (Cub) myself, but do fully appreciate the old ones. Thanks for the great video, glad I found this channel. Be well, stay safe and God bless. Rev. D.

Set screws locking. "Stacking" on top of each other like "pancakes". Excellent practice! Eccentric locking collar/inner race, to set back in locking. I held Allen's key in set screw and turn shaft in direction of operation. use punch/chisel to complete locking onto shaft surface, lock in position with Allen "setscrew". This helped me to remember direction for locking collars/races!

I just dragged a '65 Model 70 home-it once belonged to my neighbor, and then my Dad bought it from him, and it spent 20 years or so at his place-now it's mine. It took very little work to get it running well again. It has a blade and tire chains, so it will be a back-up snowplow on my place.

I went to a farm sale, where they had a 1250 I was interested in. The rod was broke, and hydro disconnected and exposed. The deck was a mess. They made one good one from a pair of them, and were selling the one that was junk. It sold for over $1000 to someone who had no idea how bad it was.
