I think you'd better explain what a mill lade is, George. The southern sasanachs won't know what you mean.
And get your hand in your sporran and treat Kara to a bigger bed.
Don't know where this one came from, but I've had it for years.
It's painted because it sat on the kitchen extension roof for years.
I think they'll be off walk behinds and you'd need narrow wheels/tyres. Hopefully someone will know off what.
All in bits now, George. After a good look, think and trying the cylinder under, over here and there, I've decided the set up is the best I can hope for. The fuel tank position is the main problem. I could remove it and fit another like on the Ds, but I don't want to alter things to much.
I'll get a cylinder kit, then see how things go.
I did think of mounting it underneath at first, but didn't know where it was originally. I'm going to have a way up of things today. Got plenty to think about now.
The pump etc was only meant to be lifting a cutter deck straight up and down. The plough hanging off the back will be increasing the weight it has to lift most likely.
I'll get an overhaul kit for the cylinder, than see how it performs. Then I may tweak the release valves if possible.
