I've seen ads for this type of mower years ago. I believe that Husqvarna sold one painted up in their color scheme. One of the selling points was they could trim grass right along the waters edge of a pond or lake. No wheels to sink down into the mud.

It's 1am and I just watched a video about a lawnmower and I have work in the morning. Bravo Sir! No Regrets!!

[@NOLAgenX]

We had one in 1980 and 81. It was hard to learn to control it at first as a 12 year old tasked with cutting the grass. Eventually it made the mowing much easier than a wheeled mower on our sloped yard. Glad to see it in action at the end!

[@mykeg2401]

Man I can only imagine the conversation when the neighbors first saw this thing. As always amazing video so relaxing having you walk us through the process of a restoration. Thanks for the video I needed this

[@yourseatatthetable]

In 88' I worked for a gas station outfit called Pester Derby, across from the Firestone plant in Des Moines, Iowa. The ditch out front was prone to holding water and had some fairly steep sides so I'd mow it using the Flymo. Every time I brought it over it'd stop traffic as people got out to look at it. Still have it, but I haven't been able to get it to start.

[@mykeg2401]

@@yourseatatthetable so Iv never used one, but I have it in my head that it just glides super smooth, or was it pushing a lead weight across the grass? I seriously must know the answer.

[@yourseatatthetable]

@@mykeg2401 I found them to be quite easy to push although they can be a bit tricky. When the salesman came by to show it to my dad it was late November and there was a light frost on the ground. The back yard is sloped, and dad let go of it. The mower started to pivot slowly and head down hill on it's own. It also floated on water as more than once I was that ditch with half a foot or more of water in the bottom, mowing the grass. One of the reasons dad bought it, aside from the curiosity factor, was that these things are great on steep slopes. You can swing it back and forth with a bit of effort and mow in an arc. The brochure (which I don't think I kept after dad passed) showed how you could tie a rope to the handle and mow long slopes from the top. It's light, too. Fold up the handle and you can carry it one handed like a suitcase. A common misconception is that it "flies", which isn't true. On the Flymo there's a blower thing just above the blade. Air gets sucked in through a filter and hose attached to the handle and 'lifts' the deck, like a hovercraft. So the clearance off the ground is quite low. I used to show off by standing and swinging the mower one handed in a circle around me on a flat surface like pavement or gravel.

[@yourseatatthetable]

I just Googled and apparently Husqvarna still manufactures and sells Flymo's. They didn't catch on in the mid west as best I know, but I had heard that the were popular in Europe and both the NE and NW states because they'll mow wet grass fairly well and handle the steeper hills, etc.

[@mykeg2401]

@@yourseatatthetable that is so cool! Thanks for answering that burning question for me. these mowers are just so interesting. I noticed that arc you were talking about the video. I could see this little guy being useful for an in between cut. They just don’t make cool stuff like this anymore.

[@hanselmanryanjames]

So glad to have found a restoration channel that isn't afraid to talk on camera! You are in the tiny minority of non-mute restoration youtubers. Subscribed!

[@enginecrzy]

I've owned a Flymo with a two stroke Tecumseh once with the air filter snorkel going up the handlebars. I liked it but the only complaints I have about it is it is awkward to move with no wheels, even with the lighter two stroke engine. The 2stroke muffler cooks the deck & cracked around the engine mount & I had to reinforce with jb-weld, metal sheets, wire pins & rivets & heat shield. A four stroke would be a bit more tricky to move because they don't like to be tipped sideways or upside down as the oil will drain in to the carb or out the breather. There is also a chance of flipping it on un evan/steep ground or by swinging it too fast, just be careful. Another sketchy thing is mine didn't have an engine kill release safety leaver on the handle bar or a "Deadman switch" to shut it off absent of an operator, I've seen video's of someone using one for a shuffleboard puck in there garage, yikes. One other flaw is the thrust generated for it to hover also flattens the grass. to change the cutting height, the blade has to be shimmed up or down. Novel machine, anyways CHEERS......

[@yourseatatthetable]

Still got the one my dad bought in the 80's. It was in storage for over 20 years and wouldn't start the last time I tried.

[@archmageshane]

Worked on one of those in my auto shop class a few months ago. Absolute nightmare to work on but beautiful when it gets going

[@giberish9]

Air cleaner is supposed to have a teaspoon of motor oil added then squeeze the filter to disperse it evenly across the foam.

[@rolls_8798]

Personally, I don't think there is much use for safety switches like that, but perhaps they are a little more applicable for this particular style of mower if there is a risk of it tipping over. It would still be better to have an 'upright' switch/safety but that might be hard to implement and/or unreliable

[@yourseatatthetable]

@@rolls_8798 I've never had mine tip over, probably less likely then wheeled mowers would on a steep slope. No, what they'll do is get away from you if you let go of the handle. slide down hill easily, even spin slowly, and can (it's happened to my dad once back in the day) drift out over water like a pond, and then your forced to wade in after it.

[@kevinballuff1164]

I had both a 2cycle and a 4 cycle. I'm not fond of 2cycles but it floated better because of the higher rpms. The 4 cycle you had to run wide open(I actually opened it up and put the rpms on the 4cycle above the recommended rpms so it would "float" better. It was hard on it, but as you implied those older 4cycles were pretty indestructible. Mine did burn oil and smoked a bit because of hard use, also when I acquired mine the cooling fins were clogged which didn't help it any. The overheating of the engines As you know causes a motor to wear down much faster. As usual you did a great job on this video

[@1986yamahafazer69]

For some strange reason when you cut the grass at the end, it was the most satisfying cut I've seen you do. Great job as always.

I used to use one of those hovercraft mowers at a Swanky Hotel in New hampshire. They were great for mowing the steep hills between the parking lots, just swing it back and forth as you walk down the hill, not so great for the flat areas. FYI, those foam air filters are supposed to have oil in them. Just pour some clean engine oil on it and squeeze out as much as you can.

@@tortron adding gas will degrade the foam and thin the oil... Its better to do as the first person posted, pour oil on and squeeze out the excess

[@tortron]

@@theguy9208 you thin the oil so it gets through the foam easier, then the fuel evaporates. You don't worry about the oil being degraded because you just want it to catch dirt, not run in an engine. Keep in mind that even factory manuals say use gasoline to clean the filter foam when it's dirty

Had a store brand mower with a Briggs engine of that style when I was a kid. Despite it not getting the best of care it ran flawlessly. I hated mowing, especially that mower, and was always dismayed the thing would start on the second or third pull so I couldn't claim "mower won't run". Outlived the mower deck by a couple decades at least.

[@ksaab3946]

the majority of these machines were used by professional groundskeeping maintenance departments ie ; golf course , local parks , etc... pretty sure they were never intended for the average residential consumer 😇❤️

[@Ragnar8504]

Electric hover mowers were somewhat popular for small gardens back in the 80s and 90s round here, fairly small, lightweight and easy to maneuver when running because they can go sideways and turn on the spot. I liked the Flymo I got for free as a kid but it was extremely worn so I eventually retired it. Putting the massive weight of a petrol engine on a hover mower kinda seems to defeat the object.

[@j308s7]

The quality of the voice-over and videography is amazing.Brilliant

[@gordbaker896]

Put some 1/4 and 3/8" nuts in the tank and shake shake shake when cleaning it out. Brush off the intake screen before assembling to tank. Leading edge of blade should be 1/16" flat. Great Fix, thanks. Safety Toed Boots recommended!

I've seen them in a few European countries, usually Flymo (I think that was or is a Husqvarna brand). Surprisingly, you can still get new ones and they're surprisingly cheap (less than 100 pounds in the UK). They were never massively popular but you'd one them every once in a while.

[@TrueStoreyPB]

This seems brilliant! There have to be several good reasons why I've never heard of these, and why they don't still make them, but I want one!

[@KSparks80]

We used these Flymo's in Florida for mowing between trees and plants that were on the edge of lakes or retention ponds in some large office parks. (They did quite a number on snakes!). The easiest way to get it across the parking lot or down the street was to leave it running. It was hard to push it straight, so you'd walk with it and let it circle you as you walked. Just let it go behind you, reach back and switch hands on the handle, and then let it circle around in front of you. The engine torque would make it do that. It wasn't very noticeable on grass, but on flat asphalt, it wanted to go. If you just let go of it, DON'T! lol I saw a guy try it and it was a bitch to catch it. (Like catching a helicopter). They were good on wet, steep hills. Stand above it and swing it back and forth in a big arc.

[@BiscuitsWithButter]

Love your work. The 2 stroke Flymos were around 50 years ago and it is a great pity they are not still available. We used to lower them with a rope down a slope that was too steep to stand. Anything that high speed blade touched was instantly vaporized.

[@Ravelinn]

I worked at a golf course many moons ago and we used these to cut steep canal banks. We would tie ropes on the handles and swing them like a pendulum to cut the lower parts of the embankments. Great memories! Fly on Flymo !

[@grants169]

Nice mower. I picked up a mint condition like new Flymo at auction for $20 a few years back. Took it home and hung it on the wall in the barn after briefly verifying it works. One of these days, probably after I'm dead, it will sell for thousands of dollars! 🙂

We found that the Flymo was great on the lawn in NZ but when we moved to Queensland it struggled with the rougher terrain. NZ was very green and soft soil where QLD was dry and dusty. Great machine tho and very reliable.

[@lmoore5264]

I too have the Flymo version with the Tecumseh 2 stroke engine and the breather tube up on the handle bars. I believe mine is from the late 1960's or early 1970's as it belonged to my neighbor when I was a child. It has been hanging on the wall in my garage for close to 20 years. It does start and run but you have to have it full throttle for it to hover. It seems like it would be a great idea but it is hard to mow in a straight line or tell where you have mowed when the grass isn't too tall. There's no wheel marks in the yard to gauge your last pass. Using it swinging side to side is a job because inertia requires some effort to stop a swing and change directions. Therefore I found it to be quite hard on my back. But for mowing banks it does pretty well and it does mulch the grass up pretty well. You've given me the urge to go fetch it down and see if it will start after all these years. Your videos are great and very well done. I am glad I have found your channel. Cheers.

It was a Swedish invention originally but was massive in UK in the 70s and 80s. As someone said above, these things are excellent for hillsides and banks because you can simply stand at the top of the bank and swing them from side to side.

[@Ragnar8504]

Back in the mid-90s I found an electric Flymo in a small-town electrician's scrap bin because the motor cover was broken. A local farmer replaced the cover with an aluminium pot and I used the mower for around 15 years. Replacing a plastic cover over mains electrics with a non-earthed metal one is a big no-no of course but who knows that as a kid? Rifling through the scrap was an amazing part of my summer holiday experience back then. You could find all sorts of rare things, including a Grundig V2000 VCR (might have been repairable with enough knowledge and motivation, not so much for someone paid by the hour) and a massive 1950s chest freezer, an amazing bit of mid-century modern design, white with teal accents and lots of chrome. The Flymo was the only thing I ever took home though.
