Anyone here have an AL-KO Hobby rotovator, 3.5bhp?
I bought a secondhand one on ebay a few years ago and it has given me great service. However last evening the clutch device started making peculiar noises and won't now work under load. The engine works fine but when the clutch lever is engaged it stalls. But it will run just about when I 'walk' it along the grass path.
The clutch cable seems to release the engine to slide forward on the base to engage the drive, but I don't know whats inside the casing.
Has anyone got any knowledge or even a handbook for this machine.
I would like to know what to expect before I separate the engine from the rest of the machine at the weekend.
