Thats a jo bu junior,made in Norway,hence the outboard ability.

Made in the 1950's,and about 80cc.

The chain runs on a rail & the clutch is manual,working off the big red lever,which also serves as an oil pump once you engage the clutch.

The engine unit can swivel so you can cut verticaly or horizontaly,(this keeps the float bowl on the carb upright,as it works a bit like a toilet systern).

I picked it up on a job last year for a few quid off the contract,covered in chicken manure.
