We love pictures.

Westie welcome to the forum. That will be a good one to exhibit as I am sure very few people will have seen or even know such attachments were available for these ride on mowers. On the subject of photos, shrinkpic has the advantage it does everything automatically. Note the thumbnail that appears in the forum posting may well be cropped but the image will open to show the full picture.

It is always interesting to see old adverts especially from around the world.

File size is limited to 3072KB, this applies to photo’s, word documents and pdf documents.
There are a number of ways to reduce file size but I have found the easiest by far is to use shrinkpic. This runs in the background and automatically resizes photos when uploading to web or e mail attachment.

Sean it looks as if your magneto is a 977B. Geoff is this the same as the magneto on your engine? If not which one do you have? This might help clarify the differences, I do have some data for these mags.

Only a few days left to catch this on i player. The mowers start at 27min 10sec. All I will say is that knowing where the collection is stored, don’t believe all you see on the screen! Yes I also know where the pub is.

What do you need to know? Length, size of inner and outer etc?

They would be a great find, I was very lucky to come across 24 issues of Allen’s magazine on that auction site some years ago. Interesting to see the title of the Clifford magazine. I think there was also a Howard newsletter. These are all an area of literature that probably gets overlooked.

Welcome to the forum and thank you for the words of appreciation.
It might be worth contacting Hayter regarding numbers, they were very helpful when I made enquiries about a manual for a very early (1959/1960) Hayterette. They were also very pleased to know it was still working.

John, post removed and user deactivated. I would recommend not following any links in spam posts as you do not know what they take you to.

That is nice, always good to see some of the attachments for these machines. Looks like a couple of the photos need reloading as file size is too large.

I have been using a well known copper grease for years on the Land Rover and have not found any problems.

Electrolytic corrosion where aluminium and steel is a major problem on things like Land Rover especially when salt is added. One problem painting aluminium is getting a clean surface, an etch primer is essential.
