Here is my trusty grass chewer. About the same year as the one in the video, mine has electric start though. This pic was taken right after I put a replacement engine in it. One thing that the person in the video mentioned was that you could not adjust the height of the deck. This is true but you can adjust the cut height by moving the spacers around on the blade spindles. By moving the spacers you move the blades up or down on the spindles.

When the clutch is disengaged it does roll to a stop in a relatively short distance. Edited October 25, 2023 by Achto 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,820 #9 Posted October 25, 2023 In your barn Joe? Looks to be a tecky on it? Might be older Dan or just not E start??? I'll never forget how Dan came across his. 40 clams at the Portage auction 2018 and had it mowing & pulling a sulky in an hour. The things grown men do for a laugh... 5 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
