It's sitting in the weeds , I'm thinking on refurbishing it . Was told by the woman I got it from "it's blown up " . But idk if she knew what she's talking about . It's on my list of "to do" projects , lol

 

[mt.stalker]

t has a real nice plow , I may adapt that to my polarie ranger

 

[exSW]

Onan. You're in for an education.

 

[Nitehawk55]

Onan or Kohler ?

Rugged built garden tractors back from the day they really made them .

I just googled the Case 222. According to Tractor data it should have
the 12hp Kohler single cylinder. Good looking tractor.

 

[Steve]

Yep, K301

210 K241 4Speed
220 K241 Hy-Drive
222 K301 Hy-Drive
224 K321 Hy-Drive

Had a 220 and a 446. loved them both but without a holding valve (trans brake) that thing would take off free wheeling down hills. Well built tractor but just too hilly around here to be practical.

I am wrong. I thought they were all Onans.

 

[Steve]

No big deal. I'm no expert on anything!

I know the 446 and the 448 both had the onan BF engines. I would like to get a 195. I just like those round headlights.

My friend just did this.

 

[Steve]

Very, very nice restoration. The factory 3 point is a nice option. The rear hydra pto runs a tiller like a dream.

 

[Steve]

I just noticed the LED upgrade headlights. Does he work alot in the dark?

I spent 10 years of my life as a kid mowing 7 acres with a 222. 12 horse, hydrostatic drive, two speed rear end. Gravity oil stick (if you flip it over, like going up a really steep hill, the stick comes out and oil flies everywhere, hot oil!!). Pretty tough machine!!!

 

[mt.stalker]

Yup , K301 . They r not hydrostatic , but a true hydraulic drive . The pump is bolted directly onto the engine block , and the rear end is driven by a small hydraulic motor . Very Freakin cool !

 

[mt.stalker]

Thank god it's not Onan .

 

[mt.stalker]

@Homelite410 , Wow that is sweet . Makes me want to really do mine ! .......if I could just get motivated

 

[Steve]

I really liked my 220. Gave it to my uncle 5 years ago and he still uses it eveytime to mow.

What's wrong with an onan? Parts are just pricey but the k series Kohler parts are ridiculously over priced
