Hi, I'm a farmer in North Florida. I raise slash pines for pulp wood and am not happy to see all the recycling idiocy as trees are a crop and a commodity. So, use more paper and I sell more trees!

I recently bought an old KINCO 38 inch sickle bar mower. It runs great, but needs tube for the tires AND a replacement drive belt. My question is, HOW do you install the belt?

Who and where can I get a service manual for this equipment? Mine has a 4HP Briggs & Stratton engine, which runs super! Also, my mower tines are in good shape too, but since I will mow between trees and under fence lines, I imagine that sooner or later I will need to replace the tines. Any help would be appreciated.

How much did you pay for it? And what condition was it in?

How are those mowers at cutting on a sidehill? Like on a normal road ditch? I have nearly one mile of ditch that is not toooo steep that wife want the grass/young brush cut a couple of times a year??

Sorry...a bit OT...TMR

If you have a B & S engine find the model number on the engine itself and then go to this website; Lawn Mower Parts | Small Engine Repair | Lawn Mower Repair type it in and look around till you find parts listing and prices. I used the site many times to buy parts for my KMG38 B & S engine. Good luck. I know my engine well and can help you if you have the same as mine. here is my engine info, remember yours might be different.

If you have a Tecumseh engine they have the same system on their own site for parts look-up and pricing!

Ex:
B & S 4 Hp I/C
Model: 114982
Type: 0148-01
Code: 86030604
Vertical shaft with auxiliary side shaft facing left if your looking down onto the engine while holding the handle bars.... Hope it helps

I have a mint condition KMG-38 cutter. It works very nice. I addition I also have the owners manual and the full color data sheet.

It does have an assembly drawing showing the routing for the belts.

I had a mower like that. Thankfully, it shook itself to death before it shook me to death. I ended up giving it away for parts.
