I don't own an Atco Standard but out of interest could someone tell me why they have a fan on the side of the engine, what purpose does it serve and what would happen if it didn't have the fan?

As the Villiers 2 strokes…
As the Villiers 2 strokes were originally made for Motorcycles, ATCO fitted the side fan to aid cooling, as mower ground speeds are considerably less than on a motorcycle.
This then opens the question why lots of other 2 stroke Mowers, e.g. Shanks Wizard, do not have any fan cooling.
An interesting question…
An interesting question Andrew. So that people know which mower we are talking about I thought it would be worth adding a photo to show a Standard with a fan...
