Could do, can get pallets FOC from my garden Centre. Could cover them in boarding ( ply ).

I am only posting this on here as I know there are so many farmers on here, please help this once. My good lady friend has 8 Quessant sheep. She bought two covered plastic Pig Pens for them to sleep in. They were located in what is now a muddy area. The Pens have been raised up but the ground is now fine hardcore, not nice to sleep on. She is thinking about spreading wood bark on the floor but worried about it getting in their coats. Can anyone advise on a good product to spread on the ground. Thank you in anticipation.

Thanks lads looking forward to lifting it out of the car into the garage. Regards.

Just been given an immaculate old Pillar Drill. Took two of us to put it in the car, so heavy. Never heard of this make before. Are they a quality machine, Model TB 1500 W. Apparently works fine, problem is I can't get it out of the car; too heavy. Thanks.

Found a pulley for another make on ebay, exactly the same dimensions apart from the hole for the roll pin is 2mm difference, simple bit of drilling and a new roll pin should do the job, just hope my belt is the right profile for the pulley. Apart from that a well made mower. Thanks lads.

Pulled the gear box out and the white plastic pulley has fell to bits. I rang the number on the sticker, don't exist anymore. Rang a well known mower shop who are very good. He explained that this range ( SXZ46B-SD ) are Homebase Mowers and subsequently have to get the spares from Homebase, fat chance as I can't find a spares dept on line for them. I have worked on similar gearboxes and I am wondering if any other makes will fit. ? Thanks for reading this.

Many thanks and Merry Christmas.

I have acquired a nice clean Qualcast rotary with auto drive, it is fitted with a 148cc B&S engine, the older one, looks a bit like the classic engine, this model has the side shute. The mower was used to trim the lawns around a weekend Mobile home for a few years. Just serviced the engine and it fired up, second pull and sounds nice. Unfortunately the auto drive would not engage when I pulled the lever. I have now lost daylight and put it away. Is this the rear gearbox style, As I said I have lost light for today and don't get long to play with my toys this time of year. Where do I start tomorrow please, many thanks. Colin.

Thought about that, worried about going straight through it. Finding another tank will be horrendous and costly. Thanks for reply.

Got a pump locally £30, all fixed and happy, thank you.

My little push along has a slight leak along the top seam of the plastic petrol tank. It only weeps slightly but I would like to seal it with some form of resin. The plastic has a mottled finish some should grip OK. Any resins recommended to fix this on this spare mower. Thank you.

Thank you, the pump seems to be under the seat/fuel tank, getting to it is another matter, can't even see it to read the make. Will have another go the weekend.

Spent a good hour looking for a pump in the UK----- HELP.

Seems to be 5117H, part number 1743165, shall start looking unless anyone has one. Thanks for replies to date.

I have been asked by an old mate to look at his Bolens Ride on. It is powered by a Mitsubishi 3 Cylinder Diesel Engine. I have never worked on a diesel in my life. My mate who is not a well man at all, tells me that it has been diagnosed with a defective electric fuel pump. Therefore I am on this forum cap in hand. I don't have any photos of the machine or even which model it is. Where on this machine will I find the fuel pump please, where will I get a replacement, new or exchange. What make will the pump be. I am willing to dive in and help my mate, but a bit of guidance will help this Hayterette DIY member would be helpful. Thank you in anticipation.

Wristpin, small world. I have an SX 200 as well will attempt to find an older picture. It is a Spanish version tuned to 19.5 BHP Regards Colin

Just sharing the love of Bikes and Hayters LOL.

Well Stormin. I used that link for this, but it won't let me post pictures anywhere else eg BSA Owners Club and others, file too LARGE again ???? Frustrating. I have an A65 as good as that as well. regards Colin.

Many thanks, this is a test message obviously not a pedestrian machine. Let's see if it works. Thanks for the link.

I have serious problems on all of my motorcycle forums and this on posting pictures as they are too large, tried most things to resize pictures.. Anyway it looks like a normal Hayterette not a graveyard mower which I have seen a few. I really wish I could send pics, so sorry.

Picked up a nice Hayterette with a rear bumper and B & S 50 XTS Quantum Engine. Started first go and has new wheels fitted !! It was apparently a graveyard mower. The blade is the single type which appears to be a B & S modification. My old mate reckons this was in fact produced as the disc and blades are so expensive. It does not look like a home made. Can anyone throw any light o this theory, thanks.

My mate has given up with this Condor and stuck it on ebay for spares or repair current bid £102. It looks really nice. Can't help some people.

Unable to find valve has anyone got any pictures please or any other tip-drawings etc, where is the pump etc. Honda powered, thanks.

Worn carb butterfly allowing large amounts of air through, just like opening a throttle. I got an old ransom like that, I had to chase it round the garden. Get some new trainers. Regards Colin.

Yep new machine, part of a job lot. Will have a look for the valve ? Regards.
