I decided that the pony motor should be mounted to the engine. I had the room for it, and its safer to use it that way. I welded a new subframe and welded that in turn to the frame of the cooling water tank. Its very sturdy this way. I fabricated a handle to lower the pony motor to the flywheel, and also a kind of lock. The lock holds the pony motor from the fly wheel when its not in use. Its spring operated. If I want to lower the starter to the flywheel I lift it up a bit by the handle. The lock is pulled back by the spring and I can lower the whole pony motor by the handle to the rim of the fly wheel. Once the Lister is running I pull the lock back in position, and lower the motor. It is then locked again, and cant make contact with the rim.
I positioned the gas handle on the handle so i can lower the pony motor and rev it, and with my other hand I engage the compression lever from the Lister CS.
Al that is left is to paint some parts.

Thanks for watching!

  • Hello, I've just watched the complete sequence of videos and found it very educational and the finished mechanism actually works.  Well done :)
