My father in-law inherited a Jacobsen Chief tractor from a late uncle, and I am trying to help him get it back in working order. It's a 1000, serial number 53036-2576. I couldn't guess what year, but it's orange and has round headlamps.
He's trying to get the snow thrower attachment to work, but it keeps throwing the belt. My first question would be where I could get a replacement belt, and the second would be if anyone has a PDF or something similar that will show us if we have the thing hooked up correctly. He seems to recall that the snow thrower sat higher than it does now, but everything seems to be mounted the right way from what I can tell. The serial number on the thrower is 59644-1804, and he does know that it did work in the past, so it is compatible with the tractor.
I suppose that's about it, I could get pics next week if someone wanted to get a peek at it; the thing is like a time capsule.
