Tks for sharing how u sharpen this mower.. It's because of this video I had the confidence to get it even though your method seems a lot of fiddling around...
Good info on how to take the wheels etc off , I jammed a stone in my mine and now it won’t engage , so I’ll take the wheel off and see if I can find the problem
Hi, Dan. Thanks for sharing. I follow your procedures to sharpen the reel, but several improvements have been made. I purchased a 5/8" 1/2" deep 12-point socket that can exactly hold the little piece of metal and a socket adapter from Bunnings. Unfortunately, the grinding paste is not available across the whole QLD Supercheap Auto. Finally, I got a 500g bottle of cylinder mower paste from Brisbane Cylinder Mower Specialist. Cannot be happier to get the reel sharp.
Hi Dan , where did you get the metal roller from ? I don’t like the plastic rollers and need some weight on it hate putting a seed bag on top. Also thanks so much for the video saved me $170 service I didn’t want to pay… used the steps and used a 15mm long impact socket with the screw and it got onto the reel perfectly with the hand held , my belt was so tight compared to your video took a lot to get it back on.
Couldn't you put in some sort of switch to change the motor polarity/direction, so you can back lap without pulling mower apart? Love the mods you have done.😀
@@remyche8768 besides adding the switch to reverse polarity on the dc motor is only half done. You need to do mechanic adaptation too, which is pretty simple. Browse through my videos and you will find how to do it. Let me know if you cant find it. Cheers
