Hey everyone, Here's a newly designed and patented clutch set up to replace your aging and flogged out clutch housing. Check out the just released photo of this product below, ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2014/04/full-5156-16107-clutchless_bonnar.jpg)
I live a 24 Hour lifestyle, but every now and again I seem to fall asleep, well at least that's what my wife tells me.

 Now that's an interesting bit of gear! It looks like it has Rover Thoroughbred handles grafted on as well or is it just handle bar plate? Something strange is going on there!

I also had a maintenance free clutch when I bought my SB. ![[Linked Image from i1037.photobucket.com]](http://i1037.photobucket.com/albums/a454/timcolectrics/IMAG0164_zps1971ea5e.jpg)

They're certainly a growing trend that's for sure.

Oh no, I certainly hope not....(shudder!) That is definitely not the way to go....not good for the cylinder reel either.  The cutter clutch is an integral part of the mowers safety, being able to disengage the reel quickly in case of foreign object potential damage, or an accident.

I can't believe it as it seems that Scott Bonnar had already invented it many years earlier and found it not to be that successful !!!! LOL ![[Linked Image]](https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/uploads/usergals/2014/05/full-5156-16328-electric.jpg) Oh well Back to the drawing board. BTW, I still can't work out why SB issued the Electric 14 Inch with an Ally rear roller and not cast iron. Anyone want to try an ally roller on their petrol unit as they look much nicer than the dark steel units and I have one available for sale. Cheers, BB

Hi BB, like most things related to early Scott Bonnar, the decisions they made, eg.the alloy roller, will remain a mystery. ATCO used them on their lightweight 14" machines, but IMO, they were too light.
