Thank you - great video. You just saved me for a trip to the dealer for grinding. Now my mower runs like new through the long grass after the winter. And I didn't even have the grinding paste, so I had to use what I had. I grinded the edge of the blades with metal grinding paper until they shined (mower turned off), sprayed with WD40 over it all and adjusted the screws to find the right position for the transverse knife. Shortly after the mower worked very fine again - before it could not cut through the long grass and stopped. I will also buy some grinding paste to try the next time. Greetings from Denmark 🙂

Nice 👌 Better than half of the other videos of this nature. Thanks for the Grinding Paste tip.

Great tutorial, demystifies the process 👍

Hey Jay, good luck with your new channel, great content so far, i will be following. Cheers from Danmark 👍😊

Brilliant video.. grass looks soo good at the end too 🔧🔧

Excellent video well explained, lovely lawn.

Does the stationary bottom blade need to be sharpened too? If so, how?

Brilliant content buddy. Keep up the good work.

What a gorgeous young man. With some very useful information. I had a quote of £80 to sharpen my rotary blade lawnmower.

Great 👍 looking lawn very informative 👍

Those stripes 🔥 good luck with your channel

Great information had no idea about grinding paste I was trying a file on my blades but if you don’t know you don’t know

Great video. Thanks

Top man ... thanks blade is now cutting like a barbers clippers

Great - good, clear and simple explanation - what so many KZfaq videos lack - your business deserves to do well

Brill vid! I’m looking to purchase a new mower and was wondering, what’s the diff between Balmoral, Atco, Suffolk punch, Qualcast and Allett ? What one would you recommend

Thank you so much for this video. I followed this process yesterday and the cut afterwards was fantastic.

Great mower the petrol cylinder, trying to get my hands on one of them if I can!!

☀️Nice video! ☀️

I found that the idea of a cylinder mower was logical when I got one but in reality to get it serviced and the blade sharpened the cost involved was more yearly than what the mower was worth and just to get the cylinder blade sharpened professionally and have the blade balanced was hundreds of pounds that I wasn’t going to pay as I wasn’t cutting golf or bowling greens so it didn’t make sense. I tried this method and a few more to no success nothing really worked well enough so I ended up selling it and I went back to the old rotary petrol mower. So think twice before spending good money on buying a cylinder mower I had a qualcast classic it was over ten years old when I bought it was in good condition engine was Italian I payed 200 pounds for it and sold it after a year as it wasn’t affordable to maintain.

Lovely job!I think I'll try with sandpaper as it might be less messy!

Hey mate, with the Webb mower what is the rear roller made out of? And does the mower stripe the grass well?

Just bought a suffolk punch petrol- she is in bad nick. Will be following this

Very well explained. Thanx.

good video

Could you show how to take the reel out of the Web push mower. I have one myself and wanting to replace the reel with one that has more than 5 blades so I can get the length on the grass down to 4mm. I have found a way to lower the height on it with some modifications but 5 blades is not enought for the height I want to cut at

May sound like a stupid question but with the grinding paste do you use the fine or corse side?

Great lawn

Did you use the coarse paste or the fine paste

Thanks for the video Jay. Very useful. How long did you do the back lapping on the manual cylinder?

Would you still achieve such a perfect lawn if you had a electric normal mower??

Great video. Cheers. How do you remove the cylinder itself from the casing eg to replace / weld a blade. Can it remove the nut, worried I might bugger it up

Does it matter which way you turn the blade?

Hi Jay, thanks for your Great video. Could you please tell the make/brand of the manual push mower in this video. Cheers 👍

Hi Jay, great videos 👍🏼 would you recommend the Webb push mower? I’m looking to get a cylinder mower for my 25m2 lawn but don’t have the budget for a petrol. Interested in your thoughts as can’t seem to find any KZfaq reviews of this mower?

I have watched this video plus another for Allett mower both very similar except Jay said says rotate cylinder clockwise whereas the other says put drill in reverse (ante clockwise) which one is correct or are they both correct?

Hello Jay Good video. Can I ask what's the push mower like. Do our when do you use it Thanks

Can I ask if you've tried using the other Allett cartridges with it, ie. the scarifier, verticutter etc.

Good video mate .. what grade of paste do you use..

I've got an old Webb Whippet probably from the 50's/60's i'm going to try and use the grinding paste on it and backlap it. Our lawns are quite small, i'm not sure if its worth getting a petrol cylinder or not...

Is it worth buy this one?

Hi Jay, I see that you are using a Qualcast Classic 35S. How would you rate them when it comes to achieving quality stripes.

What’s the WD40 used for??

Great post. Gonna get too it myself. What do you use to get your grass so green please

What grass seed are you using? and is the lawn mower Webb WEH12R Hand Push Cylinder Lawnmower?🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠

Do you still use the Webb push mower ?

thanks

How is your lawn soo beautiful.

Hi Jay, I am super interested to get one Webb WEH12R but I live in Sweden and Webb will not send one here. Do you have any ideas on how I can source one? Would you be able to support? Cheers / Niklas

What grass seed mixture is in the lawn?

What is the difference between the Atco Balmoral 14sk and the Qualcast Classic 35s, apart from the engine. How much would you expect to pay for a good Balmoral.

Is your grinding paste water soluble/washable ?

Did you find that the paste doesn't come off very well? I used this grinding paste and later realised that it's not water soluble and so doesn't wash off very easily. A water soluble version is available for the job.

Hello is this mower sill available in the market

I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure the reel is not meant to contact the back knife. id adjust it away until it just stopped contacting. Do this by ear or feel or feeler gauge or cigarette paper.

Hi why don’t you use engine to turn blades in situ ?

Hi there sounded like your reel is too tight. I use 1 sheet 9f paper folded to test. The reel should only cut 1 sheet and not the other. Hope you're safe!
