Original artifacts found under the seat on the B100

[John c 129]

I found what I guess to be the original hanging pouch from the showroom, the warranty statement, a safety brochure, some receipts for blades, filter etc.

And some unique looking washers

 

Anybody know what these washers are for ?

Those are used on the gear drive decks to attach the blades to the spindles. In remarkedly good shape - they usually are almost flat from over tightening.

Blade lock washers.

they don't look like they've ever been used, I think the literature pouch is pretty neat, amazed it survived all these years under that seat

They were used on blades and pulleys on 75 series decks.
