Howdy Folks,
After much fence sitting and information gathering on this forum, I have bitten the bullet and bought my first cylinder mower (Many thanks for all the good advice and experiences).
I ended up picking up a Rover 45 which was is good condition but unfortunately seem to have had some issues with the cutter clutch at some point in its 11yr life. (just a baby I know!).I was suspect of this prior to purchase and, as the price was right decided to get it anyway.
The problem is the cutter clutch lever does nothing -i.e. the cutter is always engaged.
It would appear that this whole assembly needs overhauling as the clutch housings are cracked (where the thread is tapped into the main body and the outer body bolt holes have been elongated) and I was curious if parts are still availible for this model??
Are there any tips/tricks in setting up the alignment of the clutch on the crankshaft/clutch fork/engine shaft???
It is a Rover 45 Model: 45058
Briggs & Stratton Model: 91202
Type: 1371 E1
Code: 0106223A
Will post some pic's of this in the next couple of days!
Regards,
Andy
