Also used a couple of Westwoods. Their pto brush collector is superb,
but pricey and they have had some bad design problems in the past. But
get a good one and it's fine.


Mine's a Lawnmaster. Honda Engine in a Westwood frame and its now around
16 yrs old. Westwood still list it on their parts book and when it comes
to belts they list them under generic part numbers as well [I replaced my
cutterdrive belt last week - none of the mower specialist recognised what
I was talking about so I went to an Ag. supplier].

Westwood build for a few manufacturers who put different bonnets on them
and then sell under their own name.

The PTO brush collector is indeed good and if you buy new some come with
it for a £100 or so extra [full retail is around £300 AIR now].

Eventually mine will pack in and another will be at the top of the list -
but I'll stilll look around and get them to come out and demo on site.
