The engine is a Textron 16.5HP diesel, the mower is a Jacobsen Tri-King 1671D.
The wheels and the blade lift (not used now) are driven from the hydrostatic pump directly off the engine. The former reels were driven from the auxillary belt-driven pump controlled through an electric clutch on the engine. I don't know what the relief is set at.
In reading around it looks like I'll need to measure/calculate the pulley sizes for the deck drive and the three driven shafts in order to guestimate the HP/RPM needed.
The engine and drive systems work fine.
My father-in-law, whose failing knees prompted him to give this to me (I have 3 acres to mow), had built a combining manifold for both the supply and return lines (3 each). Whatever motor he adapted to the deck turned, but very slowly and un-usable.
He is an old-school seat-of-the-pants mechanic and does not do math. He suggests that I just mount an auxillary engine to the deck and get to work, but I'd prefer to be a bit more integrated (and quiet) with it.
