This is my current joy. I'd like to say it's a toy  -  but it's a BEAST !

If anybody has ANY info on this thing I'd LOVE to hear.   A Parts Manual would be GREAT

I used to work on Valpadana tractors up here in Brisvegas about 10-12 years ago. The bloke I worked for was John Raadschelders of the Drive-in Mower Centre at Samford. He also had another store at Wilston. Don't know if he still has any contacts.

Thanks muchly Rowdy - have sent them an email just now and I'll let you know if I do hear anything back. I got this feeling SOMEBODY has a pile of old parts gathering dust on a warehouse shelf...................

Been putting it to good use every day since Xmas (except yesterday which was a total fire ban around these parts- NSW Sthn Highlands) slashing areas which haven't been touched for 15 years. Does a mighty job !
