I believe that Garrets of Dartford were Ransomes dealers. They made a lot
of inter row cultivators to fit on Ransomes crawlers. Taken over by
The Doe co a few years ago. -

Picture no 14. Is that your best table cloth? Get it in the washing machine quick before
Mrs R, she who has to be obeyed finds out.
For cleaning carbs etc I use 28 second heating oil and an ultrasonic cleaner.
The job is beginning to look good. -

Would it be possible to you to sketch the metal frame with some dimensions for me.
My heater is the smaller of the two shown in your photos but I do not have the
framework to go with it.

I have just obtained a greenhouse heater by P J Bryant
of Bristol. Can any member help me with any copies of instruction
books or advertising material. The heater is about 122 diameter
with two large copper tubes about 3 feet long across the top.
Quite a large item but defiantly of interest.
Cheers. Dave. -

I checked my Teagle Jetcut this morning. No numbers on the belt
but it measured 27 inches round the outer of the belt. I hope that
this is of use to you. -

I am sorry to have to do this but the Weeley working weekend
this year is cancelled. The risk of spreading the covid virus
is too great. David Weeley and I had a long chat the other day
and reluctantly decided that it was too risky.
Roll on 2022.
Stay virus free.

At a guess the old wooden handle rotted out and a enterprising
gardener hammered a metal spike in so he could carry on rolling
the lawn. -

dave replied to the topic Gem 600 cc JAP carburetor jet measurements help in the forum General talk and discussion 1 year, 8 months ago
I have a Clifford Cultivator fitted with a J A P 600cc side valve engine
and the J A P handbook states a Zenith 24T-2 no 1467 carburetter.
So maybe you could fit a Zenith instead of the Amal.
I can scan and send you the details if required. -

We think that it worked off a pressurised system so the flow
of water kept the pump working. Probably in a overhead system
in large glasshouses or market gardens. -

Hi, Your Ransomes MG5 dates from 1949. I do have a parts list for a MG5 and an engine
instruction book. I can get my grandson to download and send to you. Please
contact me at djclark89@btinternet.com and I will try and help you.
