Now that I have them, I am not sure of the correct placement of all.

Is there a reference out there that gives the location/placement of the decals?

Owners manual is one good source.

Little late now, but before I blasted down my sheet metal, I measured and laid out on paper where the original decals were.

Dave - Rub it in. Wink

I been thru the ops and repair manual and here is where I stand now On not knowing the location of the following:

1. Snap Coupler

2.Big (4X4) one with black lettering AC Repair Parts (About the oil filter element).

3. Dry Air Cleaner - i suppose it goes on the side of the canister under the hood.

4. Now the other question. When i got this tractor it had the triangular emblem/decal on the rear of the seat. My decal set came with a 1 1/2X11 1/2 Allis Chalmers decal in it. Lo and behold as I was turning pages like the Dr. suggested i came across a pic of that decal on the back of the deluxe seat. Anyone know the story on that?

thanx

The latest deluxe seats were all black cushion and seat frame and had the larger triangle decal. Earlier seats were cream/black cushion and cream seat frame and the decal was different...ALLIS-CHALMERS I think.

On a 45, the snap coupler decal goes on the left side of the snap coupler bell and the air cleaner goes on the outside of the air cleaner. I never put on my air cleaner decal. I think it looks better without it.

Dave I had the same questions on 1 and 2 since mine were long gone after my D15 was painted several years ago.

I thought that the 4x4 one went on the oil filter canister itself as I have seen folks sell multi packs of those decals for filters.

I was going to paint a wix filter cream and install it on the filter unless someone knows for sure the correct spot.

Well Dr. we are going to make this an early one. The seat pan is cream and the replacement cushions are cream and trimmed in black.

On a different note, i cannot believe that no one out there knows where that snap coup0ler decal goes. Confused

I was told to be careful using the operators manual as a reference. Many of those photos were of proto type tractors and production may change a few things. Same goes for early sales literature. I know of several examples
