    Just as I posted the above Stoeckler replied saying that they had sold the division making garden shredders to Telsnig who just keep telling me to contact Eurogarden who keep saying that I must go to my local dealer but do not tell me who this is.

    with crawlers you plough on land as opposed to in furrow. you use your last track mark from the opposite run as you mark depending on track width and furrow set up it depends where you run. as on my little ransomes I drive next to my previous track mark. so with a three wheeled row crop tactor you would drive with the rear wheel in the furrow as again depend on set up as to where. I would guess your front wheels will run some where near your last runs rear wheel mark. if that makes sense?

    Hello

    I have a westwood Gazelle I use to cart stuff to and from my allotment . I have it insured but it is not road registered I do drive it on the road for maybe a quarter of a mile. Housing estate roads so not busy It is on the road about once a week on average . I have a flashin beacon, lights and a proper horn that works I pull a small trailer . I was advised by the local plod when I asked , that I probably did not need VED as the vehicle was deemed for agricultural use. Oh yes they said if in doubt drive on the pavement!!!

    Could anyone tell me if there is a way to get hold of the original plans or drawings of the 700 , the reason i ask is if i had drawings and dimentions i could get spare pieces made if i needed them . I have looked online for them with no results , but maybee im looking in the wrong place.

    What a find especially with all the attachments looks like your only missing the trailer.
    That mower looks lethal, health & safety would have a field day. Just goes to show how things have changed.
    Still, lovely bit of kit.
    Would those colours have been standard across the range do you think ?

    Hi Darren, thanks for the info, I’ll look through your post. I have seen a minor on ytube presumably yours ? I’ll see if I can find the numbers. I hope to restore mine during the year and will, i’m sure have many questions. Coincidently, there is one on the auction site at the moment complete with a rough cut mower but the handles don’t look original.
    Thanks again for the help.
    Regards
    Shaun

    Thanks Stuart. I will look at the needle length tomorrow. It did start and run fine three times today, but still refuses to re-start straight away after stopping it. The needle keeps getting stuck too in a high revs position and the slider can be really hard to get out, so think I will strip the carb down again tomorrow or try the spare one. Thanks for all the suggestions.

    Ho one and all , i hope you all hade a great christmas and new year. Now back to reality i thought it was time i started to try and get some more answers to which may be an endless amount of questions in the coming months from you wonderfull people.
    So my fist question of the new year is that my engine cowling is in a poor state due to being eaten away from rust and being used as a battering ram. Is there anywhere i can source a replacement or can it be fixed ?

    Thanks Andy and Stuart. The timing really does seem to be fine. Really glad to hear there are drain screws, i had wondered about that as flooding really did seem to be the cause. Got one undone easily and about an egg cup full or so came out. Will try to start it again tomorrow.
    The only adjustment on the carb seems to be where the throttle cable enters the carb, is this just used to take up any slack in the cable or does it have any other function?
