Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Hey guys sorry i haven't been on here in a long time, been real busy. My lawn business on the side is growing so i needed a backup mower, and something to get into back yards with. Well i went and seen the guy i bought my first Exmark from, I was looking for a 36in walkbehind. He said I have one, the mower is a Bridges it's got  a Kaw. on it and the same gear box as my Exmark. It looks like a good mower and he only wanted 500.00 for it so i bought it. The thing cuts like a champ and runs great, but i can' t find any info on this mower. I searched the internet for like 3 hrs lastnight and nothing. Can anyone help me please?   thanks for any help, Mike

It's a fixed deck its got a kawasaki on it with the same gear box as the Exmarks run i think its made by techumshe. If you looked at it from at distance you would say its a Exmark. The only thing i see diffrent on it from my other mower( Exmark) is the drive pulleys. The linkages are a little diffrent. I'm not at home right now but tonight i'll try to get a picture and post it. I might nedd a little help doing it though. thanks mike

Welcome back Mike!

I found one tag on it that says Black & Henry???

Maybe you have a one of a kind? LOL

Black and Henry almost sounds like a dealer/store.

Ok, I got the name plate all cleaned up and i was wrong! The manufacture is Black Rock and they are out of Louisville Kentucky. Is that any help?   Also can someone tell me what the h.p of a  FC420V  Kawasaki motor is??

The Kawa is a 14HP OHV Single lung.

Al lot of mowers like that. Exmark is red, I think some older Yazoo are red, newer Yazoo and YK are mostly yellow I think, Quick is green, Toro is red. I think there is a member or two from Arkansas, maybe they can help when they check in.

Well, there was indeed a Black Rock Manufacturing that produced those mowers, I just can't find anything other than proof they were real, yet. I'll keep looking.

I sure do thank everyone for the help. I went to lawnsite and a guy on there told me that that mower had a hand full of diffrent manufacures in on it??? I dunno i just help when it comes time to find parts i can. I'm have second thoughts about buying it now. oh well thanks Mike

Fire off an e-mail or better yet call these folks and ask them what they know. They're in Louisville and have been for 20 years, they should be familiar with Black Rock. Might get you some info?
