OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping Tip & Curb Side Finds Early Rover

Picked this up from the local recycle shop about a week ago. Ended up needing the 200 series engine from it for another mower so re-engined it with the orange 9ci briggs. Still starts and runs like a dream.
I don't know what the catcher for this mower looks like so if anyone has any idea or has one take a pic and post it to this thread if you could.

i am sure paul c has one with a catcher , as i asked the same thing , wow bigted good luck finding one too . mine has a white engine

Here you go

Do you think old catchers end up with the missing odd socks somewhere? Because it doesn't matter how many or what type of mowers end up at my local tip there are never any catchers with them, and they are never in the general rubbish area of the tip either. So where are they all hiding?

Thanks Gents, went and saw my good mate and ODK member Rodeobob and got one for it today. Surprisingly enough he had about 3 of them there.

The catchers are ending up here in Canberra for some reason.

Years ago I used to go to the tip to get mowers.could never find victa power torque catchers.happened to ask one of the workers there,he gave me his address and told me not to tell anyone.i went to his house and ended up getting 30 power torques with catchers for $300.i fixed and sold everyone of them for $150 each.most of them needed nothing more than a quick service.all up he had a couple hundred mowers he took from the tip. So..... Ask at the tip where they all are haha.

Hey Pope, what tip was that?

Melton Vic .used to be good for blokes like us.then later became very structured and regimented.haha the guy I was talking about had mowers and catchers literally packed to the rafters.no joke!

Our tip has been regimented for years, just a transfer station, anything of some value ends up in the tip shop. I took an exercise walker in as new condition there a few months ago and they didn't want it, said to put in the scrap steel bins, they get them all the time and can't give them away. Must be millions of dollars wasted every year on that exercise equipment.
