Hi Gents,

I got tired of being charged $45 from my lawn mower guy to mow 70sqm of lawn so I acquired a old Scott Bonnar the other night. The motor runs as I got the guy to start her up etc, however the blades need a good sharpening and alignment.

My plan was to just sharpen her up and possibly de-grease the engine where I can easily remove the parts, change the filter and leave her be, however after coming across this forum I've got a few other ideas (restoration/paint) that I would love to do.

I have never used a cylinder mower before, so its all new to me.

I also have no idea what model exactly this is, as the serial plate has worn off and I cannot read any numbers. Any ideas or help on how to go about things would be much appreciated!!
