I've just been given an old Atco cylinder mower. As far as I know it is
a runner, but would dearly like to get hold of a service manual. I'm
turning it into a restoration/modify project. I believe it is from the
60's or 70's and I need to identify what model it is.... any starters
would be helpful. i.e. websites. Thankyou


I have one and I really like using it. It still does a lovely job as long
as the grass doesn't get too long.

I have often made reference on this site to an Atco Rotoscythe I had which
took down a half acre field of bramble and nettle to having horses grazing
on it.

A truly wonderful maching which NEVER let me down. Lower the handles and
slowly walk into a jungle and the path is made :-))))
