I have been given an old Victa Imperial Mower which I am going to completely strip down and restore.
My problem is that I cannot see how the top drive sprocket in the chain case comes off.
Also I cannot remove the sprocket that drives the roller. It screws onto the shaft with a left hand thread and I cannot see any thing to stop the sprocket from being screwed off. I made a long handle spanner to fit the two holes in the sprocket and used a hammer to try and shock it free to no avail.
There is a pointed aluminium tag with the number L.1283 stamped into it and screwed to the engine.
The crankcase has the following numbers molded into it: AIF 106,19-F151,ESS
Can anyone help?
I have not worked out how to include photos yet.
Harold

Thanks Darryl for your patience.
I have stuffed up again. I posted in the wrong area.
The mower has Victa imperial across the front of the catcher.
Will now attempt to add photos.

Hi Harold,
I have moved it to the correct forum area, as 'Off Topics' is for threads not necessarily connected with mowers.
If you look right at the top of this page, you can see where this thread is located....

Thanks for posting the pics, unfortunately they are so small it is hard to see any detail...I have tried re-sizing but it does blur the image...may be you could try from your end.
To assess a machine we need pics of this size ...for example...

As you can see, it blurs the image, but that is a good size. wink

Thanks again Darryl. I am a bit slow on the uptake as I have not used forums in the past.
I have resized the photos and will place them in this post.
Thanks again,
