I have a 5' Bush Hog that was originally a trailer type and worked OK with the old WD which had no 3PH. It was inconvenient in many of the "tight" spots I had to mow.
So.......now that I have my D-17 equipped with a 3PH (homemade by the P.O.) I decided to convert my Bush Hog to 3PH.
What a pleasure to use in its new configuration.
I was luck
 y enuf to have all the materials "in stock" except the 3PH pins and the tail wheel assembly which came off my son's York rake. However, I had to build my own tailwheel "fork" as the one for the York rake was way too light and bent on the "maiden voyage". |

| I'll have to take some pics of mine which I recently inherited from a neighbor. I rebuilt it and converted it from 3 pt. to snap coupler attachment. Works very well and easy to hook up. |
