Here's a proper edit of my earlier catastrophe.
I love your informative and ardent posts. Here's one of two resident 21's here. This is a 110v "Viking" import; the other is a 220v Euro "Husqvarna model which I run off a little converter (praying each time that that oddball 220v light doesn't burn out.)
These are a pain to work on - the kookie internal (oil soaked) drive belts, the fussy cam drive, the lurking plastic, the motor baking away in its own little oven - but it's one of my wife's favorite machines. I do sort of admire the chutzpah of that two-speed transmission, which is a manual transmission, though, notwithstanding all that talk of "automatic"! Then there's that otherworldly radioactive pea green metallic paint, so bold given the almost somber H greens of a few years before. More chutzpah, not a quality we stereotypically look for in our Swedes! I like this green a lot; it reminds me of "Rappaccini's Daughter," my favorite Hawthorne story. (That's a stretch, but this isn't for a grade, right?)
