Hi

Thanks for the reply, I understand there are three different areas that need to be filled with gearbox oil, in some areas the drain screws are on top so do you need to suck the oil out with a pipe and fill it up until the oil comes out of the oil level screw? Do you know how much oil I would need, would I get away with a 1l bottle?

Many Thanks for the help

Jack

Hi Ian
Just picked your thread up.Please think about what I’m going to say,You said the improved was adding a blade to the cutting cylinder,you are right there but not because of grasses here in the UK,When your machine is sat out in Tasmania!.They altered the blades for New Zealand,their grasses have the same characteristics as ours. Coldwell sent many,many machines to your part of the world,far more than here.The reason is there was a tie with Shanks of Arbroath Scotland.
If you need anymore help with the Coldwell,you may email me direct,through this site
Kind regards

Many thanks,
I will look into that and also I had planned to try again at the weekend with shorter grass.
It was a bit long!

Thanks Charlie. Found a spring that works as had bought a clutch lever spring 512 which I got to fit ok. Clutch engages fine and stays engaged, which it didnt without the spring. It still appears to need reverse pull on handles to disengage. Does this mean it is out of adjustment?
Also, does slip clutch wear over time and is there any adjustment on that?
Thanks again.

The only thing I find on the magneto is a kind of motionless button, screwed on another screw. There is a spring between both, but I don’t understand its role since nothing moves…

thank you. But would someone tell me how to stop the engine? Up to now I close the fuel tap and wait for the carb to be empty, but there must be a more convenient way, am I wrong?

Received diagram with thanks via email. Myn appears to be slightly different to the diagram as it doesn’t have a coil as shown (has a magneto) and myn has 8 fuses as opposed to 4.

Much appreciated. Does the manual have a wiring diagram. My email address is Garybowers@btinternet.com

Finally… but I still need to find an exhaust pipe
