  8. hi guys been rotovating tonight and my wh rotavator keeps stalling even when I have it just tickling the soil my first thought was to tighten the clutch but the adjusting screw if full hard on can you get replacement clutch plates do I need to get re lined if so any info on relining would be great thanks in advance just to make it clear it was the clutch plate stalling not just the belt

  13. first time I've managed to get any work done on this but I thought id just put a few pics on so you can see how its going with working long hours and waiting for parts to arrive not a lot been done but here you go
  14. 62 quid wouldnt get you a decent battery i just dont get why these things dont fetch better money

  16. a picture would be great if you have 1 as it would give me a better idea of what the finished thing looks like
  17. i found him to tractor is looking good im not sure about this pink idea lol
  18. tyres was on there when I bought it a few weeks ago !!! yes going to extend it so there is 2 bars 1 either side on the axel was going to leave them long so that I can mount oil tank across the back also double the wheels up at the back as ive got a spare set or rear rims (just need tyres) I seem to remember a post about filling the rear tyres with antifreeze or something ill have to have a look at past posts I just thought that would help with the weight distribution I still think that either the front arms are to long or the whole frame could do with going back 6or 10 inch but to be fair if I did move it back I wouldn't get the bonnet up ????
  19. this one is the right way round sorry
  20. finaly got round to getting the cutter out and waving the stick welder about so I thought id give you a little up date on this haven't received the rams yet so I haven't welded on the ram pin plates yet but they are cut ready but I just thought it would be better to wait just incase they not the size stated my next port of call will be to make the bucket im thinking that the loader arms are to long but ill see when I get the bucket made and on
  21. coach painting right never new that heard of it but didn't put the 2 together I bet its another great trade that lost due to modern ways
  22. I remember years ago I watched an old boy that worked with my dad and he was painting a lorry cab he was using what he called red lead (I think it was red oxide) and he was just brushing it on but before that paint went on the metal it went on a gas ring until it almost boiled after 2 coats of red the final 2 coats of top coat went on (green) the same again before the paint touched the metal was almost boiling and I tell you this there was not 1 brush mark in that body work and you would of thought it was sprayed. After that he hand sign written it in gold looked lovely funny what you remember as a kid isn't it
  23. this is my Alfie boy he's not much of a hunter though he's more up for fine wine and dining
