Old lawnflite 548

[Pete548]

Hi all I'm new here.I'm kind of at a brick wall with an old lawnflite 548 ride on I'm trying to save. I have re wired it all and the 12hp Briggs runs sweet. However I'm sure I have missing parts for the deck. I'm not quite sure what's missing though. I've looked through the parts catalogue for the model however looking at the mower and the deck together I can't figure out how it all ataches. I'm wondering if anyone has experience with this model and can shed some light? Thanks Pete.

Unfortunately there is no visible details on the ID tag. I think its a late 80 model with the 30 inch deck. I've struggled to find much information about it here in the UK, when I got it, it had been dismantled and perhaps some pieces lost.

Maybe this manual will help.

Your unit was built by MTD so the last half of this video might help.

Thank you for the information, that's a great video but a different deck to mine. The tractor itself looks identical apart from the colour. I'll try a bit more research based on the MTD.
