Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Mountfield petrol hand mower

Question

Mounting Bolt Missing  

Mountfield RY120   Hi, I have a Mountfield mower and two of the engine mounting bolts are missing, one is loose and one is holding so the Engine with Blade is Jumping..
Looks like I need to take off the Underneath Deck Back and the  cover to get to tighten or replace these.
If this is so?, Could you tell me how I do this?.

I intend to restore the machine.

Many thanks, Malcolm

Answer
Yes, if there is a baffle or guard under the mower deck you will need to remove it to access the bolt holes to install new bolts.

Most mowers do not have anything you have to remove but a few self drive models require some dis-assembly of parts to access the engine bolts.

Are the engine bolt holes threaded to accept bolts?  Some are threaded but others engines you need to install a bolt through the hole and then install a nut on the bolt.
