Now it's starting to make sense thanks, I wondered why there's a double pulley on the drive, now I know.
I suppose the chances of finding any of what's missing is near impossible??.

Brian.

Richard thank you so much for the drawing, it's a pity that part of it has been removed. I've found a photo on the net of a " Back-out reverser" a type of kit that was offered, is this the part that's missing?? http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af94/Dieseljockey/5fd33ab0-278a-4b84-8b2a-c6...

Richard thanks for your reply, so is it a case of a "cut & shunt" as they say with dodgy cars?.

I've thought about the reverse but can't see if or where it is, do I have a part missing? I'll need to find a drawing of it if I can.

Hi all, I've just bought a 2nd Merry tiller, my first one is only a 3hp engine and as I now have a double plot up the allotments I thought it's time for something with a little more oomph. Machine no 2 is a 5hp Super Major, http://i997.photobucket.com/albums/af94/Dieseljockey/Allotment/522fa552-91dd...
