Line Driver electric starter

I'm waiting for my new Graco Line Driver to arrive. Has anyone installed the electric starter kit on the Graco unit that comes standard equipmemt on the Lazy Liner model from Fine Line? Where can I purchase the kit?

KIT? There's a KIT? If so, LET ME KNOW!!!! All of our LL's (5) have been retrofitted with elctric-start motors (had to replace the whole motor). Perhaps you can exchange the motor before you crank her up.. If there is a kit, I'll also retrofit every striping machine we own. IMHO even if the Honda motor cranks first pull, we generally start and stop each of the LL's 50-100 times a day because we have a hard and fast rule.....NO WALKING IF YOU CAN RIDE! This includes lay-out, moving materials, sweeping (w Billy Goat), answering the telephone, etc., etc.. Pulling on a rope 50-100 times a day is a lot of work!

What model of motor are you retrofitting with, is it a straight forward bolt in changeover? I would prefer the same motor as the Lazy Liner, and I would be happy to pay more if Graco offered electric start even as an option? I wonder if Cormac has any input to this question.

Sorry, the old style LL's are verticle shaft. The new hydraulic one is horzontal but it is off on a job right now. I don't think it is an option from Graco. Seems an optional upgrade would be in Gracos best interest. If they don't have the option, try calling Dave at Fineline [phone removed] toll free to see what motor he uses. On second thought (being its raining!!) I might call Dave myself to see if there is a retro-fit kit for the horizontal motors. I'm serious about putting electric start on all of the stripers. You could use the same battery as the Lazy Liner... just have a quick couple next to the hitch attachment.
