Hi Ross
I have purchased a new reel, sole plate and bottom knife and will be installing in a couple of weeks. I have some cleaning up work to do on the turf/garden in the area I will be using the mower. It has been sharpened /set by the supplier in Ballarat and I am confident it will be sharpened properly. I am also investing in the front roller and having it hard chromed for $150-$175 in Rocklea.
Did you have much trouble getting the cylinder back in and aligned. Any hints would be appreciated as this is the first Scott Bonner / Rover I have messed with..
