This little machine came up as part of a deal with an Ohlsson Rice powered Turbair sprayer, it fits in with the collection as I also have a 240 volt mains version of the Turbair.
Another Fox engine popped up on ebay just after I bought the Turbairs, and this arrived yesterday but wasn't unwrapped until this evening...
Hello Captain and welcome to the forum
The chemicals are probably illegal by now and will need disposing of
If you have any (empty) bottles spare I still need a couple please

It's you guys that have inspired me to collect these little machines (as well as everything else I collect ! ), and for that I thank you.
Thanks, it won't look too bad once it's back together
It seems to hold on by the shaft, theres no mounting holes on that side of the baseplate, but with the two bolts wound up nice and tight the unit does not seem to move
I was lucky to find the compressor, an ebay search turned it up
Thanks to the bay of e I have managed to source another Fox engine (with pull start)
The O&R unit will be going to a new home to a fellow O&R collector...
Have you Chris, you kept that quiet
Paintwork and decals are so good I won't be touching them, will be asking Titch nicely to replicate some of the Paul Bunyan decals just to finish it off .
Just had a look on South East Marts website and these are the dates for their 2017 Collective sales...
