OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions on Walk Behind Lawn Mower Frames Question On Scott Bonnar Cylinder Mowers Novice Owner - Scott Bonnar 45, 20inch

Hi all,

I have recently purchased a Scotty 45, 20 inch cut, 3hp B&S four stroke. It's mechanical condition seems to be good, though paint deteriorated in places, surface rust on the bars, a dinged up catcher and a couple of dents in the front roller. The seller claims that it had a full service 2 months ago, inc blades sharpened and set costing him $150.

I have intentions of giving it a makeover but first I�m keen to get as much info as possible on the machine before I pull anything apart.

Any info or advice from anyone would be appreciated.

Q1)I have no idea how old the machine is?
Q2)As far as spare parts go who can I go to locally in Brisbane Queensland?
Q3)Does it matter that the front roller has a couple Dents in it?
Q4)Any other trivial information on the model?
Q5)Reasonable purchase for $300 you think? (too late now anyway..)

I have attached some pics. Only two, as that is max allowed,,
Will attach more on another thread..

Cheers, Craig.
