I have a Rowse double nine mower with 1100 mowers on it and have had trouble cracking the top cast part of the mower where the lift shaft is mounted to, starts to crack right by the elevated part and eventually spreads across the entire piece. I have hydraulic lift and have limiters on so it lifts slow, maybe just rough ground? Need to know what is the best way to weld it when its starts cracking: brazing or # of rod for the arc welder. I usually just buy used ones from the junk yard but after a few months seems like they all start to crack, used ones are 250 and i heard a new one close to $700, thanks for any replies.

Not sure what proper name is but it is the large flat casting where the trip, springs, and lift all bolt to. It cracks where the casting is raised and what i call lift shaft is mounted in with a roll pin. The heads have not given me trouble just crack that main casting every few years, junk man says he sells quite a few a year. I have arc welded them when they start to crack but they usually keep spreading. I think Rowse makes a heavier casting, might just have to bite the bullet and buy a new one, 35 year old cast is gonna have some fatigue.

I've been around 1100 mowers for many years and though I'd seen most problems with them, but this is new to me. If I understand correctly this is the tabs on top of the wobble box. I would try contacting Rowse directly and see what they have to say.

OK

You are talking about what I call the breakaway casting. Yes, they crack. Welding does not seem to fix them once they start to crack. I've had problems with 1100's breaking the shaft that goes into that casting. IIRC Rowse has a strap that supports the top of the shaft and helps spread the load out. I'm afraid I have no good advise other than to say call Rowse and see if they have any idea.

Sorry

John

I use the 1100 mower exclusively. Never had a crack where you have had. I suspect the lift lever rod is out of adjustment. Also check the outer shoe for position. And check the weight of the bar. Its supposed to be about 60 lbs when set up right. Do you own the manual. Your IH dealer can get one for you.
