where was the origionl location on these rascals that the starting crank was stored? my b and cub have clips on the operator platform. my w-9 has a spot on the right side of the tractor just foreward of the bellhousing. my 3 m's, my h, and my super m all have the starting cranks stored on the wall above the workbench. i must have brain damage, but i cant remember ever seeing one with the crank stored on it other than sliding around under the seat.

No, the shop absorber is the gizmo that causes all your stuff to expand to fill a new and bigger shop. It absorbs the extra space. :-)

Hi, My Dad bought a new H in 42 , couldn't get starter and lights. On the left side the crank slips behind the pulley housing and in front of the gas tank support. In 64 years it has never been lost. Good Luck, Chuck

In my opinion crank should be hung on back wall of tractor shed and left there that is where we always stored ours. Have seen to many injurys from kick back and yes they will all kick sooner or later a little moisture in distirutor cap can cause erractic firing for one thing.

If you have a drawbar the handle will slip down into the top of the Square Tubing and rest next to the fender.

the early manuals show the crank in the seat toolbox. it will also hang between the frame rail and the block real nice.

I snake mine in between the rear tank support and the steering post. It stays put pretty well. I use it every time I shut off the engine. (Got to replace that ring gear one day.) It's a little tricky getting it out on the odd time that I don't set the brakes. And when I do set the brakes I'm always conscious that I might hit the latch with the handle. Good luck, Wm

I keep mine between the rear gas tank support and the belt pully.

Ours had the deluxe seat with the shop absorber, it fit perfectly when slid under the center of the seat frame. Others store them inside the frame rail. I don't think there was a specific place.

Shock -- I have no clue what a "shop absorber" is, might come in handy with the wind we have, though.

CNKS, I was thinking a shop absorber what the thing that takes my tools and hides them somewhere.

I thought it was the workbench that hides all those tools? Not sure what a shop absorber is, but if anyone figures it out, let me know, I might need one.

They can be stored on the right hand side rail, by sticking the handle down beside the oil filter housing, and letting the bend extend between frame and engine.
