Mag Mounting Clip-Super-A

[Dan England]

I have misplaced the mounting clip for the mag on my SA, part # 46 868 d. I contacted CIH and they tell me that it is no longer available. Does anyone have a spare or suggestions where I might find one. Thanks, Dan

Dan - Is that an H4 mag. If so Ive got parts. But I don't know what your referring to "clip " thingy.

[Dan England]

WK- Yes, it is an H4 mag. A bolt attaches the bottom of the mag to the governor housing(?) but the top is held in place by the clip, similar to the set-up on a Cub. I am needing the clip at the top. Dan

Sorry Dan- All mine just have a 5/16" stud for the top mount.

WK: My parts book lists the mag type as "International Type H-4 (Special)". I don't what "special" means but maybe thats why it attaches differently than yours. Hopefully, some one will come up with a source. Thanks for checking. Dan

"Special" simply means it wasn't standard equipment. Actually, the magneto was standard equipment on early Super As and became "special" on later tractors. That same part was used on the A,B, Super A and on through the 140, 240 and probably beyond. It was used with magneto and battery ignition. They should be washing up on the beaches. You can probably find them buried in the ground at any bone yard.

Thanks, Jim. I don't know of any tractor salvage yards near me. So, I am hoping a forum member can provide one or provide a contact where I might purchase the item. Dan
