how do you adjust your drive to make the capstan rollers tighter on the wheels
these mowers are sort after . I think they have a completely different feel from a four cycle machine. seem to cut like a sharp razor
I just got my 1972 lawnboy going again, I can’t believe the power this thing has. The grass in my lawn was two feet tall, and the lill 19″ machine just powered through it.
There used to be a Lawn Boy plant in Galesburg, Illinois.
wtf this is the most retarded thing ive ever seen… and the dude’s voice sounds like that quadrapalegic’s keyboard voice on family guy lmao.
Nope I’ll never buy that the D400s were much better.
@northerbrewer F series were the best. more power and just as reliable. the duraforce that came out in ’98….now that i dunno so much.
@PhilRacicot
I think it was only until the F series came out in ’78 that they used less than 32:1. F series and on used 32:1. 32 is still really heavy, I’d use a synthetic that allowed me to run 100:1, but i’d only go 80:1. Made by AMSOil. F series are the best LB engines in my opinion. Duraforces dont seem to run as long and D and C series dont seem to have as much power.
Reminds me of my father’s Lawn Boy from 1970. It lasted over 10 years with real hard use until it just finally gave up the ghost.
sweet
hey i’m just kinda curious to why you get offended when people compliment your voice. nice mower by the way : )
i know i was looking at the batteries he’s talkin about on ebay, fuckin cheaper than the original lawnboy battery lol
we had a LB when I was a kid, cut a lot of grass with that thing, where could I find someone to ask questions about a LB? I’d ask you, but it looks like you’re fond of blocking people, afraid I might ask the wrong question or get you on a bad day…lol

runs great by the way
i think you have a good speaking voice. like a radio voice is what you would call it i guess. its awesome.
I think your voice is cool. Has an electric quality to it.
Awesome. Forty years later and you still don’t see electric start too often.
You talk really wierd sorry dude but you remind of a robot or ned flanders from the simpsons.
you have to like jog to keep up with it:D
i was checking that too..
seriously.
Great mower.
These were made by Outboard Marine Corp. right ? Only not in Waukegan, Lincoln maybe ?
Lawnboys were ahead of thier time a bit.
Yeah, thats what i said. Then i watched some video, and the guy had a red one!
