Finally got my EDSC-7 mower operable. I bought this about 2 years ago. It was a basket "case". It had a broken pulley and a few other missing parts. Made a new pulley and replaced all of the sickle knives and guards. Trial one didn't go so well. The outer race spun in the housing and trashed the pto shaft. I didnt know it at the time but it was also bent. Made a new shaft and trial two went much better. I need to fix the outer shoe and fabricate a new guard for the belt. I have the grass board and stick and the pto guard. It mows great just playing around in the yard. I'm still trying to figure out how to run it. The book that I have for the previous series mower, better than nothing at all, says to run the tractor at pto speed which I interpret as wide open. My dad and another buddy say that the engine should be idiling. So I'm not sure what to do. Any thoughts???
