Thank you

Hi outman, and welcome to TGMF.

This manual should show you the basics, not sure if it's the exact one though. https://www.justlawnmowers.co.uk/Manuals/Qualcast/classicpetrol35s2.pdf

Cassette removal is pretty straight forward and described in that manual.

Blade sharpening is usually done by your local mower shop as it requires a special cylinder grinder and bottom blade grinder to do the job. They normally charge so much per inch for this so can come out rather expensive.  One of the main reasons cylinder mowers are less common these days.

That's great info thanks so as for parts are there any still available ? and where from.

Thanks again

Mick

Depending on what engine you have on yours, if it's a Tecumseh then you'll be limited for parts, there are some floating around on the web, and some none genuine replacement parts as well.  The machine itself you should be able to find most parts.

Just google your model number and you should find some.
