Looks good,how about the controls.Have they been removed so it doesn't shut off when you have to pick something ?

NO!!! I have liability issues I have to consider. My own PERSONAL trimming mower is exactly what you are talking about. There is no cable of bar to hold down. Doesn't even have a rubber priming bulb...but a choke instead. I took an excellent mulching frame and sat a 6HP brand new, Briggs engine on it that came from a pressure washer. The guy didn't want to pay for a pump (which is high), so he just said keep the dang thing. Ergo, I used the engine on my trimming mower. It's awesome, but I couldn't sell things like that to the public, since bypassing safety switches is a no-no. Now, i can tell YOU how to do it yourself....but I can't do it, being in this business. No one else could either.

 

A lot of my regular customers are professional landscapers, and they are the only exception...such as taking the plastic guards off of weed eaters, removing spark arrester screens from mufflers, etc. But even in their case, all I can do is tell them to do it themselves....shoot, they already know how! But some of them don't quite understand the liability issues at stake, if I personally remove some "stupid & redundant" safety features from equipment.

 

I still have to watch my butt, and provide RELIABLE and SAFE equipment back to my customers. Same goes for rebuilt mowers I sell. They do NOT get posted until I have been through everything, to make sure my customers are getting their money's worth, and then some.
