Starter Removal Case 1816

[Bbj]

Hello all, looking at need to gain access to service/replace the starter on this skid steer. What's the most efficient way of doing this? Access looks pretty limited. Thank you for your assistance in advance!

I have not personally worked on an 1816, but in a lot of cases with older air cooled gasoline engines, you probably need to remove the engine from the machine.
This was the case with my 440b when it still had the original Kohler engine fitted. With the Chonda fitted, it is now easily accessible.
Likely not the answer you were looking for....
Hope this helps - SR
