Hi people,
I managed to get the ride on working , no problems, unfortunately the Honda engine that replaced the original Briggs and Stratton has the exhaust pointing directly towards onto my right ankle area.
I felt something getting hot , yep, my right ankle, I too no notice until end of day's cutting only to discover 3 burn spots resulting in blistering, not good for a type 2 diabetic.
Had to make a protective shield to prevent exhaust burns to my ankle in future. I used a piece of Styrofoam sandwiched between two pieces of fibro cement. It worked but getting it to stay around my right foot when using the accelerator was a challenge.
