The current BCS product line can be seen here:
https://www.bcsamerica.com/products/tractors
Heavy-duty setup for clearing tall grass and brush.
Powered by a premium 10HP Acme gasoline engine with an all-gear transmission.
The handle bars pivot front to back to also accommodate rear mounted implements.
What’s Included:
• BCS 735 Two-Wheel Tractor (Handlebars rotate 180 degrees)
• BCS Sickle Bar Mower attachment (currently mounted)
• Bonus: Extra replacement sickle cutter bar (Note: one tooth needs to be replaced in the spare blade, included).
Condition: Mechanic's Special / Project.
The engine turns over smoothly with strong compression and has excellent spark. It fires right up and runs for 5–7 seconds on starter fluid, but dies immediately after since it can't draw fuel through the carb.
The carburetor bowl has some fuel varnish crystallization from sitting and needs a cleaning to draw gas continuously. I removed the carb bowl to clean with carb cleaner and show the float in one picture. The crystallization can still be seen on the end of the brass tube in middle of float. I don't know how to remove and clean the carb further.
This is a high-yield weekend project for a mechanic or property owner who knows how to remove and clean the crystallized fuel from the carb.
A new equivalent setup of tractor and sickle bar costs over $4,000.
Price: $1200 OBO
Terms: Cash or Venmo.
Local pickup in East Groton, NY (just west of Cortland, NY).
Very heavy, solid-steel machine—you will need a truck, trailer, or ramps and an extra set of hands to load.
