Hi to you all.
My 1st post.I'm a bit vague about this!
I'm Bill, a 78 y.o. ret'd Acc't from Perth.Not a DIY master.
Thanks in advance to Bruce,Deejay,Bonner_Bloke,for answers given to posts and to the other Members who have
sent in posts to the " Repair Forum", regarding the above subject.

I have a recon'd 14" Rover 45 purchased in early 2009 ( new motor, recon'd body etc ). Couple of months ago
- regardless of the clutch being disengaged - the blades kept spinning. 3 weeks ago the Thrust Pad melted due to - as I now Know - to too much "fine tuning".

After a couple quotes from Service Outlets ( too pricey for me ), I found Outdoorking on the Net.
Marvelous!!!
Read & followed the posts, answers, pictures & videos on the Repair Forum, pulled down the mower, got some new parts from ODK, put said mower back together successfully and have given my lawn an overdue mow.

Thank you all once again. Cheers. Bill

Cheers,

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.
