Many thanks for your research as well Cyberjack.
I did find this
link a few hours ago,
the pictures show the right motors, and although we cant see the actual pages of the book, in the description it states how the manual covers "PARTS BREAK DOWN - VERTICAL 125cc,
HORIZONTAL 125cc, HORIZONTAL 160cc,
CARBURETOR 3D & 3L,
CARBURETOR AMAL.
There isn't an exact date, but since 2 engines shown are mark 2, and the middle one is just series 70, am I right in saying that this would date the literature around 1972?
I have seen a couple of other mowers twice in the past at the tip shop that were sold by DE Withers - both briggs engined Rovers of a mid 70s vintage (not exactly sure since they were both severely dilapidated). One was a Rover Regal I think - I was too busy paying attention to the condition of what turned out to be a very nice 1989 Victa powertorque (that is now my regular mower after some reading on ODK).
Again many thanks for your research
Regards
Tyler
