Just want to say thanks for the ideas and suggestions and to say I
think I now have it all sorted.

The seat is interlocked to the ignition, as is the reverse when the
cutter is down and the start unless the brake is on and the cutter
fully raised. Which makes it a bit of a pain to reverse a yard, having
to raise cutter to select reverse.

The one thing which makes it really awkward is the brake cum clutch
pedal on the left. It is a very long reach forward and just about
reachable with the left toes and I cannot see any obvious means to
adjust its position. 6' 6" friend also even finds it a bit of a reach.

Other than that everything is fine.

Does the seat not move forward if needed?

Do the mowers slouch..

It does, but not enough to compensate for the pedal. I may decide to
cut the linkage and re-weld it in a better position.

Good.

Both my Uncle and Aunt were vertically challenged. When I acquired a
Morgan 4/4 from them, I discovered it had wooden blocks wired to the
foot pedals:-)
