GONE - electric lawnmower (minor repair needed)

Recommended Posts

We moved into a new flat, and ended up with two lawnmowers - we're giving one away, it's an old but solidly built one, but needs a repair on the handle/trigger


Flymo (Chevron) 300T - electric roller lawnmower. Photo attached (and can provide more details if any questions)


All the core mechanics and electric/motors work fine, and we've cut the lawn with it several times before finding the other one. But there are some fixes needed, so would require the following repairs if you're going to make much use out of it.


- the plastic pull back trigger you hold in to the handle to keep it running is broken on one side, so it's pretty difficult to keep it running without fixing this. I think it's just a matter of finding the right glue to re-stick the plastic


- the storage folding mechanism for the metal handle is worn and stiff, it's fine for using the lawnmower but it doesn't fold down easily for storage in smaller spaces. Think it would need a new bolt for the two hinges, but might just be that a bit of WD40 would do the trick.


In terms of actual cutting operation and rolling stripes, it does a nice job.
