Hi all
Although I am new to this forum, I am not new to cylinder mowers. My father had a Masport cylinder mower in the 60" in NZ when I was growing up and I have owned a Rover - Scott Bonnar cylinder mower since the early 1980's, to use on my Qld blue couch lawn in Rockhampton.
I now live on the Gold Coast but I haven't been able to use the mower for a few years due to the type of lawn I had. However I have recently ripped all my lawn up and replaced it with couch.
2 weeks ago I got the mower out of the shed, filled the oil and petrol and the 3HP Briggs and Stratton was purring after only 2 pulls.
I would like to replace a couple of things which are missing and or need replacing plus make a few adjustments to the cutting blades, but I seem to have misplaced the owners manual for the mower or motor. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get a copy of these manuals?

Re my post above: I found the link in the forum for the manuals  Should have looked around a bit more on the forum before posting. I am not only new to this forum, but I have never actually been on any others before, so a bit confusing for me at the moment.

Hi CyberJack,
Thanks for your welcome.
I am only too happy to get some photos of the machine. I will try and take some on the weekend. I have seen were other forum members have also given details of the model etc. so will get those for you all too.
Just one question. As I am new to forums and don't want to do the wrong thing, do I post the pictures and model details to this thread, or is there another place to do that?
Ian

Hi Ian,
A warm welcome from myself as well, you'll really enjoy this site as there's loads of informative stuff here.
As far as posting those pictures is concerned please go to the section titled "Question On Scott Bonnar Cylinder Mowers" which is under the "Repairs and Maintenance" category and sub-section "Question on Lawn Mower Frames".
Cheers, BB
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.
