A few months ago I found this and picked it up this Ariens Rotary Mower (album)
The label says it's a "910001" but I can't find any history of this number being made (the reference page only shows "35-10M" and "910011" being the closest ones)
Belt was gone and I'm not sure of the size of it. The height adjustment is also frozen on it too and it won't move up or down.
If it had a belt, part of me would want to just bolt it to my 10000 series to see if it worked, but the other part of me wants to go through it and grease/tune/unstick anything before doing that. Blade seems OK but could use a sharpening.
Ultimately I'd like this to be running so I could ditch my hand mower and have one less engine to maintain (I have a tractor for most of my lawn but this would be good in hard to reach spots.....and "just because!")
Any tips or pointers on where to start on this would be appreciated
