Modern Marquis

Recommended Posts

Does anyone work on current Ransomes machines?

Today got asked to look at a one year old Marquis that had lost drive. The answer was simple, the three cap screws connecting the top shaft to what the parts list describes as the Torque Clutch had dropped out and were lying in the casing - a simple fix.! 

What is the Torque clutch? It sits where the centrifugal clutch would be on an older Marquis. , is considerably smaller in diameter , is only shown as a "lump" in the parts list - no internal detail  - and is priced at £435.63+vat! 

I'm curious !

 

Edit

Another forum member has kindly researched this and it appears that it is a heavy duty precision made version of a chainsaw chain clutch. Must be a bit special to justify the price though  :o
