Hi there, i am keen to venture into the world of restoring an Atco mower but know nothing about them!! I'm a welder/fabricator, have done cars etc.. know how a basic mower works, but not sure about the levers/driving mechanism, or even if this is complete?
Cleaned out fuel tank, filled with unleaded. Has an oil dipstick so i guessed 4 stroke. Found fuel on/off lever under tank. Left lever (passenger side) is clutch? Seems to roll better with this in. Right lever unsure, above right lever is accelerator i assume. Re-attached plug lead, wound rope around a home made pull start and yanked. Have compression and sounds good to go... and that's all i done so far.
I guess i'm wanting to know the start routine on something like this. Is there a primer? Naturally i'll check the spark plug next.
Any help or suggested websites/ directions to go would be appreciated! I am a novice at this kind of machine but just need to know the correct procedure for starting and i'll probably eliminate/restore any issues as i go
Cheers!
