Brought the mower home, on the way got to meet the original purchaser/owner. He's dutch and was a mechanic in Europe. The pottinger machines didn't have many problems and he found them easy to work on.

Bought 175 knifes, a full set of retaining clips and bolts, bunch of bushings and the belt tensioner pulley spares he had. He had bought them with the mower but not needed them yet.

He showed me the repairs he had done to the mower, around each retaining bolt head he laid a bead of hard facing weld on top of the original weld to keep rocks from damaging the bolt. He also had changed one turtle back when he first bought it.

I'll try to get some pics, see what the Europeans like so much with these rigs.
