has the machine still got it,s belt guide at the front pulley
so when you let go the clutch the belt sits off the pulley.

fitted a centrifugal clutch, test run on Saturday so fingers crossed it doesn’t slip and burn out..

this machine is going to live at the allotment so does not have to be original.

thank’s for the lesson i have the front weight on a stepped bar and the wheel weights, I thought it would be of use at the allotment in the spring or turning over for the winter.The 350 is such a well made machine, i also have the tiller extension kit which makes it a little wider i think it’s about 24 inches. Is this only used in light soil or is…[Read more]

Arrived today always a good read down the allotment.Looking foward to lotmead this year 8th and 9th of July, one for the diary..

is the flywheel on a taper or a key way. Im worried about changing the timing and not knowing how to reset it on my own 700.Also were their any decals on the machine as mine has none?

my own allotment is the same may need some of those giant wheels you see used in the paddy fields.I would rather see a bit of frost, kill a few bugs and break down the soil that has been ploughed.

well done barry i bought one about a month ago a great piece of kit.A little on the heavy side but what ever job you ask of it the 700 delivers.Some good footage on the net of one ploughing and lifting spuds,best of luck with the refurb..

checked out the listing OMG would love the plough but price is right out their..

scoured the internet and found footage of a chap ploughing with a 700 and it appeared to have trusty wheels fitted. I also found footage of one with lugged bands over the original wheels, so lots of options over the winter..

thank’s for the lead benjamin, he has one got him to list it as a buy it now and someone bought it just before me.never mind the cable looks very like a motor bike front brake cable..

Thank’s for the info . I pick up the 700 Wednesday a good runner villiers 2 stroke but no cable. I don’t know until then if i have the remains of the cable.Are accessories like plough still common or hen’s teeth.

auction by HJ Pugh, same set up as malvern tractor world earlier in the year.

entry form in the post also putting a few bits in the auction..

look for a dynastarter from a golf cart they are belt driven . A pully can be fixed were the pull cord was mounted.the rest is mounting brackets battery location relay and switch.
