OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions on Edgers Two Stroke Edgers Tilt a cut with power torque

Hi all,

First post.... love the forum and the fantastic amount of knowledge here. I like to play with a few mowers in my spare time but recently I picked up a later model Tilt-A-Cut with a power torque. I've never had one before and I'd like to keep this one for myself.

It came not running and after a quick look the engine has had its day with too much scoring on the bore to be useable. I'm putting together another engine to swap over but after reading a few of the posts on here regarding tilt-a-cut flywheels I'm a little confused... The flywheel on my machine appears to be a standard aluminium type and underneath there's a fairly large wheel as part of the v-belt pulley that appears to have been balanced. I've also been told that post 1995 the flywheels were the same as the mowers. As I've never had a tilt-a-cut before, I'm wondering if the large pulley underneath replaces the heavy flywheel or if this is normal and once the pulley is removed I'll see a difference in the flywheels. My next question is what is the best way to remove the pulley?

Thanks in advance, Michael

Managed to work it out and finish the job. Mods feel free to close the thread, thanks.
