New to me CASE 444

I picked up a CASE 444 to go with my Power Kings last night. It's got Ag tires a new battery. It started right up, but smokes a little. I've been looking for an affordable CASE for quite a while and my grandson brought me his. He's moved into an apartment and has no place for three garden tractors and 2 trucks. It has no attachments. Can somebody tell me what model snow blower and lawn mower will fit a 444? What year is it? Also, does anyone have a picture of a three point hitch on one? I tucked it in with one of the Power Kings so it wouldn't get lonesome.

Sweet!!
Go to casecoltingersoll.com and join up. All of the information you will need is there. A great bunch of guys ready to help you also.
 
Your 444 is a 1979. Used CAT 0 3 point hitches often sell for $450.00 to $500.00 on e-Bay and elsewhere. A new hitch is $1000.00. If you buy a used hitch, make sure it comes with the two TEE fittings for the hydraulic hoses, the Top Link and the Sway Chains. Installing it is very simple and takes less than an hour providing you have a complete kit.

Mower decks that are correct for your tractor come in either 44 or 48 inch cut width with left hand discharge. There is also a 44 inch rear discharge deck.

You are looking for a LETTER DECK. The model numbers begin with a single letter. Either H, J, K, L, M or N followed by two numbers. A J-44 deck is a 44 inch cut. A K-46 is a 48 inch cut but is one series newer than the J decks.

You DO NOT want a Right Discharge deck that begins with the letters RM. Those decks are for tractors built after 1988.

As for the snowcaster, you want a 48 inch wide model, not a 38 inch one. Once again, you are looking for an H, J, K, L, M, N or S 84 model.

You DO NOT want a snowcaster with the model number SB 48 or SB 42. Those blowers are for post 1988 tractors.
