Believe me Grumpy, she had her mechanical faults. Not long after I posted my previous post the cutting deck jammed up. Turns out there wasn't enough clearance in the cutting deck pulley to clear the belt keeper on the deck and she stoved the pulley fair into the deck. So off the deck came and shim it up further so all cleared.

I will say one thing though. I'm used to driving hydrostatic type mower and this heel toe setup is very different. Good that I don't need to change any gears, just vary the pressure on the footplate but very different when I have to change my driving style!!

I've already had requests from the neighbours family to look at their ride ons now!!
