Hi folks, just wondering if anybody can offer any more details on this machine? It starts but doesn't self propel, looks like the rollers are loose on their axle?

I guess that's what it is.

Although, because TPE is a marketing company, sourcing its products
from a round the globe, the machine may have come here under another
brand name as well.

The transmission is clearly a Model 45 copy, but with a centrifugal
primary clutch. It looks well built - and with a double helix reel.

Sorry, I can't help with market value.

Hope this helps.

UPDATE: Got a parts diagram (happy to share if anyone keen) and decided to find out why no drive to roller.....let's just say it took a puller, 4lb hammer, gas torch and an angle grinder to get the drive sprocket off. The sprocket was on a taper with a key way and a Nyloc nut and heaps of rust. The sprocket itself quite soft metal so bent out of shape easily......Fun Fun Fun!
Got the roller out and apart to find extensive rust on the one-way pawls so I'm drawing a line in the sand and walking away. Long story short, if anyone wants to swop a bottle of rum for a Enduro 5hp motor that is complete, runs and starts, please contact me....
