I did get the mower assembly of. The example must have been a smaller one. This one had nearly twice the number of pins, was four by two feet and weighs in north of #100. I did take the two belt covers off in order to clean the top off, then used a screwdriver to loosen dried grass. There wasn't much to clean, it was mostly fiddling and learning. The blades need sharpened, badly. I may see if the bastard file will do. Banged up hard though. May have to adjust some things.
That was it. As things are I am surprised I got to that. With that off, installing all else should be straight shots. Not necessarily easy, just not as mechanically complicated. I also cleared a new, better, place to park it, at least for winter use. If rhubarb pops naturally next year, I may keep it there. It's nearly a two-side-closed covered shed. A bit of plywood would keep it fully shaded.
She needs oil. I didn't find anything about using a winter grade oil. As well, I don't yet know how to change the oil. More to learn and do, hopefully before it gets nasty cold, wet or snowy. I am getting there. Later or good night.
