Thanks for that, I have the original green catcher but it never fills properly. The newer one does have a bigger capacity, fills evenly and the magic eye tells you just before it starts to drop grass onto the ground.

It has been fed Castrol GTX and RON 95 for decades and is smooth as silk. All sliding surfaces (and wheels) get a 6 monthly spray of CRC White Lithium grease and the chrome gets a brisk rub with mild steel wool and layer of Phosphoric acid to eat up the surface rust...

Is it a half or full crank?
