Call me paranoid about little annoyances.
All it takes is for you to be out of town when your neighbor borrows the
mower.
That wont happen. I dont lend out tools to ANYONE. I learned that
lesson the hard way more than once......
Boy, have I heard that before...

Noun:
An unfortunate incident that happens unexpectedly and
unintentionally, typically resulting in damage or injury.
You probably don't need insurance either. ;-)
I would rip all the safety crap off the mower so it's usable again. If the
safety Nazis ask, I'd tell them that's the way it was when I bought the
mower at a garage sale.
Nobody's going to ask. Nobody really cares if you disable safety gear
and cut your foot off. They make these laws so manufacturers make
it safe it in the first place. Also protects the manufacturers from
lawsuits.
After that, nobody cares. Darwin takes over.
But as said above, if somebody else gets hurt, you might be liable.
It's up yo you and Darwin.
