Hi Victor
Just hope that you are able to get a new bolt!

The same thing happened with our Husquavarna ride on, right at the
beginning of the mowing season. Can we get a new bolt - oh no!!!. As
it's
a left hand american thread, peculiar to this mower, we can't just go to
B&Q etc. Have phoned and e-mailed Husquavarna agents all around the
country, who say they have no bolts in stock, or can't get them, or will
ring us back & let us know when they have checked with their parts
department - but none of them have bothered to reply. Husquavarna have
not
bothered to reply to any e-mails.

So here we are with half an acre of rapidly growing grass, and one tiny
cut
hand mower which we normally use for the fiddly bits. The moral of this
story ***DON'T BUY A HUSQUAVARNA***!!!

I sincerely hope that Flymo parts are easier to come by and you are
successful in replacing it.

Best wishes
Ros



I would suggest that you try specialist fastener wholesalers. such as

http://www.acornfasteners.co.uk/index.htm

However a local one to you should be able to identify it or ask Husky what
the bolt is l/h unf unc 1/2"? etc and phone and ask for one-no buy two!.
Also buy some loctite !!

Failing that contact an American husky dealer and get him to mail one over..

Once you've got it email husky hq and have a good moan...
