Case E7 Mower

Hopefully (if the weather cooperates) this next weekend I will be going to pick up a Case E7 sickle mower and an old International R/L pickup truck trailer. They are both pretty rusty and may turn out to be
paperweights but we will see. The mower appears to have the drive belt pulley mounted lower on the mower which seems to indicate that it is meant for the VAC tractor. Does anyone have any info on the mower? Is
there a chain that lifts the mower head when lifting the Eagle Hitch?

I will attach pictures. There are also other Case items that are for sale if anyone is interested. Most of it is in rough shape though.

I've a complete, well wore one here I can take pics of, it's going to Le Seur in the spring. I also have an operators manual. I've scanned a piece of sales lit for it but it's in PDF format that the site won't accept and I have no idea how to change it over. Send me your email and I'll scoot it to you. My mail is open
 
Back to square one. I dug out the literature and it's a one page sheet double sided so I can scan it with my batch scanner. I can't do scans from books magazines etc like a flatbed. Hope this will help. The parts book I have shows it hooked to a VAC and the configuration of the mower is the same for the SC and DC

Connor, if it is a paperweight, I would buy the stands off of you. I am in the middle of restoring one and don?t have the stands for it
 
Looking thru the parts book, the frame in your pic is for the EVAS-7 or the EDSC-7 mower. The E-7 mower has a base for the 3rd link that tapers in from the frame and then goes vertical right at the link connection. I'll get my wife to copy the parts book tomorrow at work then I'll pdf it and get it to you. There are definitive differences in the mower between the V and S series now that I look at the parts book. My mower is for an SC
 
My guess is it's a ENH7. The EVAS7 and the EDSC7 were similar but had taller and wider spaced verticals for the top link. Also there should be a chain that hooks to the arm on the left side the hooks to the tractor. We always hooked it to the drawbar support. When you raised the mower it would pull the arm down to raise the cutter bar assembly. Lee

Thanks for the info and pictures VAC Lee. I'm guessing it will work on a regular VAC it just needs to have a different toplink adjustment?

Rob Marrison I will keep it in mind. At the very least you can get measurements off of mine.
 
You will probably need a longer top link to keep the geometry right. There was a stop to go on the lift handle quadrant but we never had one. Just need to set the regular stop to keep it from raising all the way up. If not it gets pretty hard on the u-joints. My computer and scanner are not getting along very well today or I would have posted a couple more pictures. Lee
 
Those stands would be real easy to make. If memory serves me correctly 1" square stock, a couple lengths of 3" flat iron for feet, and the clamp bolts were just a bolt wit a piece of 1x1/8 flat welded to the end for a handle.

Ben,

I have one of those mowers as well that I resurrected from the dead and use on a 400. Loren is right about the stands. They are just some 3/4" square stock welded to plates. Does that one have the belt guard on it? I need to make one for mine and have been looking for one to copy. If you try to remove the pto shaft to fix the yoke it is threaded onto the shaft the drive pulley is mounted on.

I do not believe that it has the belt guard but I will investigate when I go to get it. Thank you for the info on the PTO shaft. It will surely need to be replaced.
 
Have one with the belt guard here. Also have a Case adapter to fit the tail wheel mowers that used a bar attached to the tractor. It is a 3
point adapter to make it a three point mower. Never seen one before.
