I have a 1964 Woods cadet 72, an older version of your mower. I believe the blade attachment is the same though, and Woods has the best blade mounting set up I have seen. There is a 1/2 bolt (3/4 head), that holds a lock in place that holds the sliding lock plate in place that holds the blade pivot pin. You can put shims under that lock plate to raise it up and it will hold the pin tighter to the bottom of the of the blade there by reducing the up and down movement of the blade. A couple of years ago I replaced my pins, blades, and lock pieces. But I did not add any more shims. It has had and still has an inch or two of up and down movement at the end of the blade for as long as I remember. If you hear banging, then the deck is damaged/caved in/bent into where the blade travels. Mark.

I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
