Hello,
went to Gundagai museum a while ago and found a few mowers, some of them look a bit different to me. Not sure if the first one is homemade. I have only seen a couple of the Mobilco before.

G'day Geoff

Yes, I think the first one is a homie.
It looks like the height adjuster only works on the front wheels.
On the higher settings the angle of attack of the blades would
be totally wrong.

The Mobilco is unmistakable. I love the front roller outriggers,
fitted to cut higher grasses.
I wrote something on the Mobilco here:
https://www.outdoorking-forum.com.au/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/62153/MOBILCO_-_Power_Reel_Mower_-_c.html

The Masport Rota-Rola was sold here in small numbers.
Probably made for the UK market who love that style.

It's nice to see that they have a 'small' Atco Standard too,
probably their best piece.

Brilliant!
