What the specs work out to

Figures MowerFacts computes from Victa’s own numbers — not published by the manufacturer.

Mowing time

  • ¼ acre30 min 21 min
  • ½ acre59 min 41 min
  • 1 acre1 h 58 min 1 h 23 min
  • 2 acres3 h 57 min 2 h 46 min

About 118 min per acre at 0.51 acres/hour, mowing at 2.6 mph. The second figure is at the published 3.7 mph top speed (0.72 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows. About 0.2 acres per tank.

Gate & trailer fit

  • 32 in gateFits
  • 36 in gateFits
  • 48 in gateFits

Needs at least 32 in of clearance.

Power & run time

  • Run time per tank~0.3 h

Mowing times assume 0.51 acres/hour: deck width x 2.6 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 2.6 mph is 70% of the 3.7 mph top speed Victa publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 3.7 mph, shown so you can see it.

Fit uses Victa's published overall width.

Run time assumes a typical 1 gal/hour burn at working load; real consumption varies with engine, load and cut.
