Howard 350 certainly had a trailer made by James and Stone who were boat builders in Kent so may be the Bantam used the same trailer . Strange coupling though it fits onto the plough hitch,and utilises a hitch block so the trailer can pivot and has a swan neck to come over the rotors . This in effect tilts the machine forward so the rotots clear the ground . Rather in the same manner as if you were walking the machine to a site

I have been after one for years They are about and yes they were marketed as a howard accessory certainly for the 300/350 range

I looking for user manual for Uniropa F80 or Alpina Hobby 80. I see on your post you have that scanned book, can you send me on my mail ?
Thank you.

[vhgmcbuddy]

That would be brilliant Charlie but it’s alot of effort for you to go to.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Don’t suppose you can point me in the right direction to find out more info on the engine

[vhgmcbuddy]

I think it maybe a kirby lauson engine. The spark plug isn’t a problem to get hold of I just wondered if there was any where good to look for other spare parts.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Awesome mate cheers. Any ideas where I can get spare parts like spark plugs etc

[vhgmcbuddy]

Quick google search found this 🙂

hi can any one help me find info out on this rotovator as never seen one before

[vhgmcbuddy]

I thought it looked older than an m1 it doesn’t look like it has any covers missing

[vhgmcbuddy]

Looks like a Mounfield M1 with the covers missing to me, I have been wrong before though haha.

Well that’s been quite a quick rebuild for me, normally they lay in pieces for months on end, this one’s only taken 3 1/2 months haha.

Just the implements to clean up now which shouldn’t take long and then she’ll be ready for her first outing.

cheers,

Thanks for your reply Charlie. I haven’t contacted Hayter so will send them an email in the week. Unfortunately I don’t have the mower any more so am going from memory. Whilst I am 100% certain about the engine, and the fact the deck wasn’t painted, I cannot be sure the mower was a Hayterette. If it wasn’t then it must have been an equivalent rough cut model with four wheels and high inertia disc cutter from another manufacturer. I can clearly remember it taking a few seconds to speed up to full throttle, and slow down again, just like a Hayterette. I have never seen another rotary mower with a Clinton engine in this country which is why I would love to solve the mystery of what this mower was, and maybe find one if another one exists.

I found information on B&S 5Hp Coils,
Depending which coil is fitted that it might indicate a wire for a kill switch?
dont know if this matches your situation or not.

Mike.

Hi Charlie, It is a bush mounting plate – there are 2 that bolt onto each end of the under seat land roller and holds the land roller spindle in place. One of mine is broken beyond repair.

Thanks for replying

Hello,

Could you please email any manuals for F100, F90, F190 to sultannidal@gmail.com

Appreciate if you could advise where i can get Contact breakers for the F190, or what alternative can be used if the breaker is damaged.

Regards,
