Sticklor B-112 0 Posted November 28, 2005 This is my newest obsession, AC B-112 I bought from original owner this past summer. Came with 48" deck,and 42" thrower this tractor is mint and original. Only painted hood and seat. I just found a homelite C/T10 with tiller, mower, thrower and wagon. Nice shape just needs a little clean up will post those pictures when I am done obsessing over this new one. Hey guys I see a lot of big tractor tread type tires on B-112. dose anyone know where I could find these Paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark64 0 Posted November 28, 2005 Looks like a real nice find. How much weight is on the rear? The seat is different than the one on my B112. Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirtsaver 1 Posted November 28, 2005 Really nice tractor Paul. The weight box is a neat design, do you know if it's an aftermarket piece or a home-brew one of a kind? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plastikosmd 958 Posted November 29, 2005 300lb, makes me think i need more weight in my loader tractor. my weightbox (oem) fits 4 4x8x16 cinderblocks (the flat ones) on end without any room to spare..like it was made for it..tho weight is prob 125lbs or so? Anyone know the original reccomended weight for weight box on loader? btw nice tractor! scott Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris727 1,927 Posted November 29, 2005 Nice tractor but that looks like an awful lot of weight for blowing snow. It appears you've got 50 lbs on each rear wheel plus the weightbox. 400 lbs plus an operators weight might be enough to stress the axles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone know the original reccomended weight for weight box on loader? btw nice tractor! scott From the Simplicity MFG 515 Loader Operations Manual: Always operate loader with proper amount of counterweight in weight box (100 to 300 lbs.) When moving with a loaded bucket always carry bucket low and operate tractor slowly. A loaded bucket, carried high, reduces tractor stability. Good operators always carry loads low for added stability. http://www.simpletractors.com/operation/515_loader/pages_4-5.htm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey Chris this machine seems to have no problem pulling this weight the 100 LBS. wheel weights are over the tires so I don't think this is contributing to axle weight but thankyou for your concern Paul PS check out my CT-10 Homelite I just got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark64 0 Posted November 29, 2005 That weight box is sweet! It sure would be nice to be able to easily add and remove weight as needed. Once you put a hydraulic lift on the tractor it sould be perfect! I wish mine was that nice looking. Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
