The gouge is probably why the unit is not r View attachment 371787uning yet.These are the cutters that started it all and made Bush Hog a household name. I repaired the gear which works fine, but did not address the gouge in the cylinder, having taken a wait and see stance. The cylinder in mine was apparently damaged by someone (not me) trying to rotate the sleeve thru one of the ports, resulting in a gouge in the sleeve, and a tooth broken on the cylinder drive gear. Be very patient taking the cylinder off if it is stuck (carboned up). It also has a low oil and low water shutoff. That shaft also drives the rotating cylinder.


The unit has an oil pump as well as a fuel pump driven by a vertical shaft geared to the crankshaft. The gouge is probably why the unit is not r uning yet.

I also have a wiring diagram, depending on the model number of yours. I can relay most of the info as you need. I also have a copy of a copy of a copy of the manual, pretty bad, hard to read and does not reprint legibly. When you start to disassemble the unit, I have a lot more pics that might help. If the control panel bracket is broken, I have a spare. Looks like the mag bracket is repairable. The one on mine is burned out (they usually are ) so I rigged a manual control. Looks like the solenoid throttle control is trashed, but it is not a necessity to make it run. The set looks fairly complete, just needs a little TLC.
