Push Mowers Buying Guide
Our buying guide will explain which type of push mower would suit you most, how much you can expect to pay for one, and which features are worth looking out for.
Simple, rugged, reliable if u learn how to use it.
I have many different mowers. I am a contractor. The 460 Victa fills a gap as a lightweight easy to manoeuvre and rugged mower. The two stroke is rugged and reliable but needs to be operated in a certain way. Always use 25:1, always shake the fuel tank or can before use, always shut off the fuel tap and leave the motor running for 20-30 seconds before shutting off, always leave the fuel tap off when not in use, turn on fuel tap and press primer 3 times before starting, immediately move lever to run but let it run for a minute before mowing. Had them for years. Beautiful mower if u treat them properly.

A simple, reliable 2 stroke mower with a lot of power! If you know how to start it, I do.

After using the mower stop it by closing the fuel valve and let it run out of fuel, otherwise you will have difficulty starting it later. There is re...Read more
ally no point in ever stopping it with the control lever if you ever plan on starting it again, as the engine will flood during the spin down, during which it's inhaling fuel. To start I open the fuel valve, put the throttle on half and "don't" press the primer, pull the cord first, if it doesn't start then press primer "once", pull again it will probably fire now. It is VERY easy to flood it when starting, use the primer "very sparingly" and it will start easily. If you use the mower weekly it usually starts on the first pull.Similar opinion?
