Snapped the nozzle off many moons ago and many plastic welds/epoxy/chewing gum fixes later I just cant take another one. Time to replace. BUT.....where in the world can I purchase a tank, or any part for that matter? Any help locating a source for parts for my purchased new 4720i would be...

Hello, I have a 4720i that I thought had bad battery; nope. Bad ignition switch; nope. Bad starter; nope. Bad wires; nope. Bad relays; yup. Problem is all the manuals say I have four of the same relays, I have three that are red and one that is blue, did I just miss one? either way I need...

Starter is bad on my 4720i. What is the part number for the starter? anyone ever use a Kukje starter or a cummins engine starter on their Branson? thank you for help,

starter is really squealing, blowing fuses, so I know its going. appears to be a two bolt install, anything tricky I need to know before I replace it myself?

Where do the wires from a charging coil, under the fly wheel, usually attach to? It is a kawasaki 4 stroke engine. engine will not run when disconnected from battery and drains battery as it runs. Simple battery scrape test shows no shorts (I know a shade tree thing but what the heck)

I know its an old one, 1996, but I am slowly trying to repair mine. The charging coil wires, sits under the flywheel, are not connected on mine. I have no loose wires and I can not find where they attach. I think they must attach to the battery in some fashion or the voltage regulator. Where...

I have a 96 promaster 200 with 3000 hours that I took in trade for some work. I bought a new battery, re-built the starter. cleaned carb, straightened rods (one looked like a pretzel) but very clean inside. She now fires right up, lots of power, very fast, actually a little scary, there are...

1996 model year, 3300 hours on meter, 20 kawasaki engine, liquid cooled, no rust anywhere, spindles look good, belts look good. missing battery, some sort of electirical problems, I can get it to turn over, start, wont stay started, obvious short or something at the voltage regulator as the...

My 4720i is not barn kept so it gets some weathering. I have a couple of pretty good rusts spots now in some unique spots (one at the ROPS buckle, one on each side/middle of the canaopy) What is the best way to fix them? Toby

I found a broken spring under my clutch pedal. I can not see immediately where it went. It is a bright metal spring maybe 2 inchs long about 3/4 inch diameter. Where does it go and what does it do? Clutch seems to work fine without it but dont want to ruin something if I can help it. Toby

I am in the early stages of seeking/purchasing a bigger truck to pull my rig. Which truck, ie Ford, GMC, Dodge, would come closest in a paint matching scenerio with Branson Red? It certainly won't be the only factor I use but it could be a selling point. thanks, Toby

I put my 4720i on my trailer. It made it extremely easy to move the 41 quart plastic tub with gallon milk jugs around to the various draining holes. Poured the old stuff into used 5 gallon buckets. Able to collect all 36 quarts of hydro in one shot, plastic tub caught any drips, any other...

Howse 6' cutter behind a Branson 4720. Broke my first shear pin due to starting the pto way too fast, second pin broke for unknown reason, now I have just sheared my third pin cutting grass, my pto is at proper speed, I am going at a good rate of speed, and I was CUTTING GRASS......I cant stand...

I really want one. Does anybody have good hours using one yet? If so what brand, size, money, blah, blah info could you give me? Florida palmettos are pretty tough to rip with my box blade but I can do it. Problem is the amount of soil I lose when I do it. Sure would like to roll this stuff...

I have found my steering problem. Leaking hose that goes to the top of the front axle. This hose is the only one that is routed below the main frame and engine block. It is obvious that it was punctured by driving over something. If I buy a longer hose is there any problems with re-routing...
