Drain the fuel tank and carb, a bit of oil down the plug ‘ole wouldn’t hurt. Give the throttle cable a dose of lubricant. Now I’d better practice what I preach!

I bought this Merry Tiller professional last year, it runs well and is in generally good condition but the non-standard wheels would not come off. I had to drive the pins out and I tried various things to get them off but to no avail. So I ran the machine with the pins out and gave them a good soak in GT85, it’s got PTFE in it. I recently noticed…[Read more]

Eventually these drawing will be essential to someone or other, helping them to make parts and keep machines going. Well Done!

A good Horticultural turnout at Puckington, Ilminster, Somerset and in spite of the weather on Saturday (dire met. office warnings!). I had the car and trailer but drove into the field with no problem, dropped the trailer and set up camp next to Charlie. We spent the nights in our (separate!) tents. Friday night was noisy but the field stood up…[Read more]

It’s more than a sales catalogue, it’s pretty well a workshop manual!

will-haggle replied to the topic Brand new 36 year old suffolk still on origional pallet in the forum General talk and discussion 9 years, 9 months ago
