The Bolens is a 1054 and it is in reasonable condition. Hopefully Alan will not forget that it has my name on it once they have finished with it.

Alan 1,273 #19 Posted June 23, 2015 The Bolens does have your name on it Iain, but might have to be changed when Mr Showman has a test drive on his next visit. I think the colour is having an effect on him. His eye's glaze over every time he sees red paint. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #22 Posted June 24, 2015 That's handy. Wonder what it fitted? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triumph66 1,256 #23 Posted June 24, 2015 Sisis equipments are a quality bit of kit for lawn maintenance. It should be orangey yellow in colour but what the disc harrows are for in relation to turf care I do not know. I guess at one time they manufactured a broader range of kit than they do now. A good find though Chris. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #24 Posted June 24, 2015 Ive cleaned it up with a wire brush and greased all the disc spindles, just need to weld a drawbar on it On 6/24/2015 at 7:42 PM, the showman said: Ive cleaned it up with a wire brush and greased all the disc spindles, just need to weld a drawbar on it 1 pmackellow reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
