We are outside of Rochester NY, so it’s a bit of a drive with a trailer or truck. If my wife liked the baby blue we would consider, however I have a friend or two that have admired ours and will pass it along to them. Price in mind? Definitely displays a labor of love for the classic machine. Hope someday the battery operated tractor makes a resurgence in the market place.

I don't have time for mowing on the weekends anymore (I want to spend that time with my kids), so I've bought a robotic lawnmower (Husqvarna 430x) and am selling my E-15. I restored this the first time around about 10 years ago (stripped most of it apart
and stripped all the paint off, repainted, replaced all bolts and screws with stainless steel ones, etc.). Last summer I did a partial restore, rebuilding the three mower deck motors (and adding the lower rings underneath the deck to greatly reduce vibration),
and repainting (but without stripping this time). If interested, see the picture at this link: https://pubpages.unh.edu/~msbriggs/E15.jpg If anyone's interested, let me know. I'm in the seacoast New Hampshire area. The tractor works nicely. The only issue is that there may be an overly sensitive thermistor,
as after mowing for a while (doing most of my yard) if the battery voltage drops too low, it keeps you from going into higher speeds. The batteries are I think 3 years old, maybe 4. Any suggestions on asking price? Thanks, Mike Michael S. Briggs, PhD UNH Physics Department (603) 862-2828 |
