Wheel Horse D-180

Last Updated: September 2024

Overview

The Wheel Horse D-180 is a lawn and garden tractor made in 1974 and 1975. It has a 2-wheel drive system and a manual steering setup. This tractor uses a hydrostatic transmission, which means it can go forward and backward with smooth, infinite speed changes.

Under the hood, the D-180 has a Kohler K482S engine. This air-cooled engine has 2 cylinders lined up in a row and runs on gasoline. It's naturally aspirated, which means it doesn't use a turbocharger. The engine is quite powerful for its size, with 18 horsepower. It has a very high displacement of 47.8 cubic inches, which is above average for tractors in its class. The D-180 has lawn/turf tires on both front and back, perfect for yard work. It features an open operator station and starts up easily with an electric starter.
