Just received the 4 I ordered today. I am impressed, as they include brackets for attaching them to the handle, no need to drill the bucket, unless you have one already on it, as they are the same as the OEM ones, and will pop right in.
I'll be ordering more in the future, as I am going to put them on all I refurbish in the future.
One of the brackets it comes with could easily be riveted to the bucket, or probably doubled-sided taped as well, but not sure how well double-sided tape would hold in the freezing winter weather.
The machines that I have with a holder already on the bucket, I will use .... Any other machine is going to get it attached with the easy handle brackets, with no drilling needed.
FWIW ... I just put the four I ordered on some of my blowers, .... here are a couple photos, one of my Ariens 10000 series and my JD 826 .... I am so impressed with the quality and price, as well as the no drilling handle holder, that I ordered 6 more for the rest of my blowers that don't have one .... .... not that I require them on all blowers, but I want it on the ones I will be selling, and at 5.99 each, it's a no brainer to put them on all ....
Home Depot no longer has them ... however, I located them from eBay for 6.99 w/free shipping, plus an extra 20% off going on at this time, bringing that to under 18.00 for 3, which I just ordered, and that is including the tax. It's called refurbished, LOL, what could that be on an item like this, I am assuming you won't get the Factory box ...
