Your shop mule is a 1946 model. The 12-17-O number on the engine is a casting date. The letter O stands for 1945. The engine serial number is an early 1946, so the casting has the 1945 date on it. I have two of these beasts, and I've had no luck getting a manual. There were some reprints from the shopmule@hotmail.com, but all are gone and he has not printed anymore of them to my knowledge. Get yourself a Farmall A owners manual and a Farmall A service manual. These will work for many things. As to the steering wheel, go to a Yale Lift truck dealer and find a friendly parts person. The steering wheel shaft is 7/8 inch diameter with 36 splines. I got a steering wheel for one of mine from Yale. The steering wheel they can get looks exactly like the original, but is slightly smaller diameter. I believe the original is 18 inch and the replacement is 17 inch. On mine the threads for the steering wheel nut were all stripped off, so I tapped the inside of the hollow shaft with an 18 mm fine thread tap and used a bolt to hold the wheel on. The battery box goes either on the right front mounted on the clutch housing, or on the rear behind the seat. I have one each way. Most are on the right front side. The location depends what equipment was on the mule. One of mine has a snow plow on it and there is a frame for that and thus the battery is on the back. If you have not hidden your E mail, I will send you some pictures.
