I have one of these lovely machines but it is out of action as I need new v belts. Have tried A24's and A25's but the first is too small and the second is too large.Any ideas?Also, the v belt jockey that increases the tension on my machine is a simple revolving cylinder subject to jamming. Does anyone have a machine for spare parts or a breakdown diagram showing the original design?

    I have just bought one of these, and the belts on it are A24-1/2 which is 622mm Internal Li
    Be interested to know if you found a parts/breakdown diagram (i have a user manual)

    There's a really useful site I use to get belts and bearing from..... also makes interesting reading..... called "Bearingboys"

    You can get just about any type of belt of any size you want.......... if you need a spare for your mower, they work out about half the price and they're top quality. If you good at adapting things, they do jockey tensioning wheels as well.

    No, only have a user manual, just redesigned and manufactured a new jockey wheel which works fine, would be interested in a photo of your jockey wheel if possible as I think mine was not an original.

    Thanks, have actually used them, redesigned the main Jockey wheel and works fine, so belts no longer an issue.
