If you go to the photo gallery tab then via the index go to Howard you will find pictures of the mini gapper.

@trusty220
Hi could you assist me in dating a trusty tractor. My husband brought a trusty about 5 weeks ago. However he has recently passed away unexpectedly and never had the chance to get it ready for a ploughing match. He would have liked to know the age of the machine. Below are the numbers that I have found on the machine. History of machine…[Read more] -

Those Kubota charging systems seem to go on forever so the first thing I would check is that every wire has continuity from end to end. With the amount of vibration and in view of it’s age it wouldn’t be too far from the truth to find that the copper inside the plastic outer may have parted in more than one instance.

Hi all,
An update on the Trusty. Struggled to get the clip off and did not want to grind it out unless absolutely necessary. So decided to firstly try to do a (agricultural) repair in-situ. The shaft was twisted, so jacked up one wheel, put another jack under a spade lug and another jack on the other wheel’s spade lug, which would turn the w…[Read more]

Hi all hope we are well I have a charging problem with my Ransomes motor triple. Up until recently it’s been running great but it’s no longer charging it’s battery. It has a twin cylinder Kubota diesel I believe it’s a z600. I have checked the battery while the engine is running and it’s showing the same as when it’s not running so would suggest…[Read more]

Hi, new to this group, I have a Nickerson Turfmaster T84, been using it since last year but wanted to do some maintenance on it, does anyone know anything about where I can find parts like chain sprockets to drive the side cutting units please? The one fitted works but it’s looking a little worn
Many thanks -
wristpin replied to the topic Howard Gem in the forum General talk and discussion 4 days, 21 hours ago
I presume that you have the chain off the machine ? So just take it to a bearing and transmission factor who will measure it up and supply the correct link. Possibly the chain is worn and it may be the time to renew it.

Hi all. New to the forum love everything shay but just acquired a Howard Gem with the 810 twin, it runs ok but my problem is with the drive chain to the rotors. Can anyone tell me the chain size please. It has a wrong link in it which causes it to jump over the drive sprocket. Only thing I can see on chain is fenner 6r (maybe) eyes aren’t so good…[Read more]

Thanks for your answers. I have filled with JB weld. If i get any more problems it’s an easy job to remove it and try one of your other suggestions. Cheers

Guaranteed after shot blasting you will find more holes, its time to fabricate a new tank, as cost over time filling holes it will be a lot cheaper!

kevm replied to the topic Holes in petrol tank in the forum Pedestrian operated machines 1 week, 1 day ago
Soldering is best but you have to get it really clean first then once the holes are covered/filled coat the inside with POR15 I have used it many times on all sorts of fuel tanks and it is brilliant stuff.
You could clean it up, fill the holes with filler of your choice then POR15 inside. -
alan replied to the topic Engines, Brands & Manufacturers in the forum General talk and discussion 1 week, 1 day ago
I hadn’t heard of ABC engines so looked them up. Sources say that a company called A.B.C. Motors Ltd, London, were started in 1912 and was known for aircraft engines including vee, vertical and radial types.
This reminded me about Wankel rotary engines used on a few mower brands including Wolf.
Indeed, Drayton engines. And also Blackburne.
