What a great site. Well done Bruce.

Yesterday I purchased a lovely old Series 80 in excellent condition. But the one problem is the catcher drops off the back of the mower chassis whenever it goes over the slightest bump. It seems like the catcher (a green one, with a lever at the top) has a very narrow lip with which to hook onto the back of the chassis. I was wondering if the catcher is missing something, of if you have any advice on a fix?

I was also wondering anyone would know the approximate age of it? it's got a plastic carby, and the number "129" is stamped on the head...if that gives any clues...

Many thanks, Forro in WA.
