An old post from Jim (fiskfarm mediaone net)stated:
"It should be mentioned for those who are unfamiliar with the 12M that the
motor is behind the axle and the darn belt goes around the axle to get
there.  A bit more of a challenge changing belts than your average ET. But
with a mid mount grader blade from WH, man can you grade a lawn or
driveway."

So I would guess wheel horse made something that fits e12m's

I think someone here mentioned a mid-mount blade a few years back, but I 
haven't been able to find the post in my archives yet.  Does anyone 
remember?  Was this an ET attachment, a custom job, or something from 
another tractor that just happened to be mentioned here?

I've tried to grade with the blade, too, and it's tough to do a good job, 
at

least for me -- but then I have to admit, I'm pretty green.
