The Mower Bench

If anyone works at a Briggs & Stratton dealer they will be told off if they don't know a DC shunt is.

 

The other way is to spend mega money on a automotive multimeter.

 

A lot of Briggs test kit is clever simple and if used properly can tell the user loads of information and save loads of time and or costly parts.

 

Is this the start of a new game guess the workshop tool??

Hi Eddie, the game started quite a long time ago. There have been a few 'special tools' posted over the years.

 

If you have any to show 'bring it on!'

Is the customer a giant? Surely all the controls are just too far away now.

The guy is actually quite tall, i would guess about 6'2".

He says he can't drive it with the standard seat. I am shorter and I have a hell of a job driving it like it is because I cannot reach the clutch properly, as I reach forward the back of the seat comes up and the seat switch cuts the engine.

 

To be honest, the seat is a bit lower now then when it came in. He had it mounted on a wobbly bit of 3/8 ply with a 3" coil spring in each corner between the ply and the seat. The cutout did not work at all. One spring was not fixed at the top and the whole thing was a deathtrap.

 

I made a new base from 18mm ply and reinstated the switch. Its now quite safe, but I have been parking it out of sight until it gets delivered back tomorrow.
