Recommended Posts

oliver2-44

This starter was in a large box of parts I got from a member by Pony Express from the Big Show. 

I'm guess its for a vertical shaft engine!

Ok experts out there, what does it fit?

If someone needs/can use it, let me know.

I think a push mower. I've seen that style on a few. You pull straight up.

Hmmm. So that you lift the mower up when you pull the rope and it lands on your foot???  :eek:

3.5HP on push mower.  Snappers, MTDs, etc all used it.  Not aware of any 5hp with vertical pull.  Probably due to the plastic hear not being able handle the extra stress.  Rewound hundreds in my your days working on them.

Even on the side pulls, up until the blade brakes came in, I made a habit of bracing my foot against the mower shell when pull starting.
