Hi All
new member and hoping someone can help with advice
I have recently inherited a ride on mower along with property purchase here in France,i can find little to no information about the two bits of kit i have,i have zero experience with ride on mowers however i consider myself quite good at problem solving as i am a maintenance engineer.
Bolens mower model 13046 also branded garden way inc
garden way inc deck model 14052
mower is fitted with a briggs and stratton v twin motor which i have now repaired,simple fix ,new battery and starter motor gear replaced, basic service and its running sweet.
However I have two problems i cannot resolve:Hello
deck will not lift from floor,lift lever has lots of spring tension but it does not seem to have any impact on the deck lifting or lowering,all fixings are in place and retained with pins but there is no movement under the machine at all,is there maybe a cable missing?having not seen a complete assembly or diagram before i cant be sure if somethings missing.
also i cannot find any reference for drive belt? as in transfer drive from motor pulley to the pulley on the deck, the deck is fitted with a belt as per diagram found on deck but i cannot see belt for transferring drive to the deck.
one other thing is i now live in rural France where service centers are far and few between and i am told they charge far to much for me to consider taking for repair,with the motor all sound and running sweet it will be a real shame if i cannot figure these minor issues out.
many thanks
Peter
