: I have a Wheel Horse garden tractor, 314-8 with a manual lift (vs hydro) and found an older model Wheel Horse single stage snow thrower that I want to buy for it. (the price is right ) It attaches to the tractor just fine, the belt center distance is ok, however, it is VERY difficult to lift. Is this normal? I am inclined to think not. Do any of you have this set-up and what is your experience with the WH manual lift w/ snow thrower? Thanks!Bill, I have a couple of wheelhorses that are a bit older than yours (1973 non-hydraulic & 1976 hydraulic). The snow thrower is hard to lift with the manual, but I think that Wheelhorse (Toro) has some helper springs available for the non-hydraulic version. You'll probably need to check with a dealer that had handled wheelhorse for a while if you want to get someone who knows enough about the system to order them. Good Luck! The blower is single stage, but it works pretty well if the snow is not too wet. Dick : Bill
