Duetz-Allis "Vanguard" front-mow info needed

[Guest]

As title says, I was just given one of these seemingly-rare mowers, and I'm looking for anything for it. Manuals, parts, info, Simplicity version name/model #, whatever. Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Feel free to email me. Help! John A. jacuff1@earthlink.net

Does it look anything like this? If so, here's a link to my eBay auctions where there just happens to be 3 owners manuals for sale: 1) the hydro version, 2) the gear drive version, and 3) their options/accessories...

Yes. Thank you! Mine looks very similar, except it has a metal dump-bed and armrests on the seat. And of course it says Duetz-Allis on it. Mine is the 12hp hydro. I have put bids in on two of those manuals. Thanks again! John

The thanks are mutual. The steel dump hopper is one of the optional accessories in the other manual...

Hi, we might still have a hubcap kit for this. Also, a wood board side kit. In our warehouse, I think we have a bagger system. If you are interested please e-mail us. Thank You

Thanks! I might be interested in the hubcaps and sideboard kit. Don't have much need for a bagger, but if the price is right, who knows? Right now I'm just trying to get the parts together to get it going. The previous owner removed the hydro pump, and I'm trying to get it back, or get all the pieces together to put one that I have on it. That's why I was looking for a manual on it. I was lucky to be able to buy the books I needed from Kent on eBay. I guess it's like they say in those commercials, timing really IS everything! I will keep your email so I can get back with you on those items. If you could send me an email with some prices when you get the chance, I would appreciate it. Thank you! John
