Amazing Mott Hammer Knife Mower Restore Part 1

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Taryl received this cool vintage Mott Hammer Knife mower from a fan stopping through Podunk. It belonged to his old neighbor who had passed away and what better person to get it running and restored than the Dactal? Watch as Taryl goes over this unique machine and what he plans to do to it in order to get it back and working the way it was originally. Be sure to check out Part 2 coming soon as well for more on this neat little machine. And as always... There's Your Dinner!!

    That Clinton brings back memories. When I was about 10 years old Dad had an old rototiller with a Clinton on it. I had the idea of using it to make a go-kart. The spark plug was missing, so the piston was stuck. With a lot of banging and wrenching I got the piston freed up, and Dad showed me how to lap the valves. We made gaskets out of a Tide box, and a gas tank out of a Hawaiian Punch Can. We got the engine running, but the crank shaft was bent, and the cardboard head gasket burned through after about 20 minutes. We never did build a go cart, but dad showed me how to rebuild an engine when I was 10 years old. One of my fond childhood memories.

We would oil up the surface that needed a gasket lay the file folder material on the oiled surface and transfer the surface onto the paper folder, then we would cut the holes out with scissors and use a hole punch for bolt holts to make the holes.

    My first job I ever had part of my duties was to cut the grass. This was in the mid 1980's. The tractor I had to use was a 1948 Avery, and the mower deck was equipped with these "hammer knives." I had to pull off about 500 and sharpen them at the beginning of the season and reinstall them, it took roughly two days. It was a beast of a tractor with about an 8' mower deck, it would cut anything! The Mott uses the same idea in a walk behind mower.

    Back in 2000 we bought a house and had the seller toss in the mower and edger. Got those and the original paperwork. 1972 McLane mower and a 1974 Montgomery Ward edger which is a McLane painted white. Really good stuff. Come 2018 we're moving and won't need them anymore. No one wanted them. It was a beach to get the local gardener to take the edger and days for someone to grab it from the curb with a ''FREE'' sign on it.
