G'day all.
The thing is that the Victa-Vac has nothing really to do with Electrolux or flymo.
Sunbeam had control of Victa for a period from 1970.
Electrolux had control of Scott Bonnar from 1970.
The Victa-Vac was an
acquired design when Victa was still controlled by the Richardson family ...

That's an interesting point.
Mechanical sweepers have been around sine the late 19th century.
These looked like large side-wheel push mowers, but with a brush for a reel.
In fact, Rover was selling North American
Lambert sweepers of that style in the 1980s!
Powered sweepers are big business today - for commercial use.
In the domestic sphere the silly blowers reign supreme.

Norm, are those wheels the same as the Victa Super 24s?
